US vehicle prices could spike by up to $10K with Trump's new tariffs on Canada, Mexico

OK. Feel better? Not sure why you think fentanyl poisoning is a race thing or a union thing. It kills all races and all economic levels.
No, that's what I'm pointing out to you. This is specifically affecting the uneducated white community. Why? Because of the economic despair they are dealing with. They used to get high paying union jobs. Then Bush sent all their high paying jobs overseas. Lots of those people died of suicide, drugs and booze. And their kids are dying of fentynol.

Just like crack affected the black community in the 80's. It did NOT affect the white communities like it did theirs. Well blacks aren't turning to drugs and alcohol and suicide. They're a lot tougher than that. It's uneducated whites who are freaking out. It's how Trump won. He pandered to these morons.

And Trump will not MAGA for them. He doesn't have to. They love him regardless of the results.

Very similar to how a lot of Russians still love Putin despite the shit he's gotten them into. Despite the lies and the oligarchs and corruption.
 
The guy who told me is a corporate analyst who specializes in car company financial statements. He said it would be impossible for car companies to price their fleets if they did it the other way. Part of tarrifs are absorbed by the importer, and part are paid by the consumer depending on the price sensitivity of the buyer. So they have to distribute it across the fleet.
Of course, I could be full of shit again.

btw, if all of a certain model are built in the US, none of this matters.
Does any of it really matter? Since all the American companies are owned or partnered by foreign interests?
Stellantis/Fiat/Chrysler, whatever they are this week...is any of it really American?
 
'Trump’s trade wars threaten to claim a casualty on the home front: the American auto industry.

If the president goes ahead with 25% taxes on imports from Canada and Mexico on Tuesday, he will disrupt more than $300 billion in annual U.S. automotive trade with its two neighbors, wreck supply chains that have been operating for decades and likely push up the already-forbidding price of new cars.

The tariffs pose an “existential'' threat to North American auto production, said David Gantz, a fellow at Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy. They will push up “the cost of everything that’s imported from Mexico or Canada that goes into a car assembled in the U.S.‘’

Kelley Blue Book says Trump’s tariffs could raise the U.S. price of the average new car – already approaching $49,000 – by $3,000 or more. The price of some full-size pickup trucks could shoot up by $10,000.

The economic pain would intensify if Canada and Mexico counterpunched with tariffs on American exports.'


Economic pain brought to you by those who voted for Trump. the consequence of Trump voters’ ignorance, fear, and stupidity.
Or not, no one has a crystal ball, including trump haters
 
Then Bush sent all their high paying jobs overseas.
Thats a damn lie

Repub swamp rats cooperated with democrats

But Bush was no more to blame than clinton and gore

You're a liar. Reagan/Bush invented NAFTA. Yes manufacturing started to leave on NEWT's watch but it really picked up steam in the 2000's.

Don't call yourself a swamp rat. Because in the 2000's, you cheered as 1 million manufacturing jobs went overseas. But don't forget how they duped you into cheering. They waged a war against the workers. Because they were unionized.

Don't try to tell me you were pro union in the 2000's

Yet another one of your anti Trump posts of probablies and coulds. This time it is "could spike".

You couldnt GIVE me any of these over priced, low quality, stealership rigged, personal data stealing, government snooping, over valued pieces of junk they call "new cars"

They are crap.

The only cars worth having now are pre 2005 vehicles.

No stupid. They will first deter people from buying them. They can always just buy something else.

Second, they will encourage their makers to move manufacturing to the USA to avoid the tariffs.

In the big picture, they will create jobs and better Americans, at the expense of other countries.

That is the point.

Fuck "North American auto production," dickweed, we want American auto production.

We should be as confident as you were in 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 when you swore a recession was coming.

Today we have a 40% chance of a recession coming and it's not Biden's fault.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmm, voters voted democrats out of office due to the economy. Democrats made it so that Americans couldn't afford to live anymore. Yes, the rich got richer through the stock market thanks to democrats and in the process the working class voted for Trump.

Yea, and I have shown they/you are idiots. Biden fixed inflation. It's under control. Or WAS until Trump caused it to go up again. Now they're talking the R word dummy.

Inflation happened all over the world. Are you sure democrats made it so??? And NOW you have excuses. So you must have understood the reasons for inflation in the first place wasn't Biden. Biden got us out of Trump's mess relatively pain free. Much less pain as when Reagan got us out of high inflation back then.

Trump's policies make teh rich get richer. Suddenly you're okay with it. But back then/now you want to blame Democrats? So you want it both ways. You cheer it now but blame Biden for it back then. Got it. You make no sense.

So, you are an election denier.

2000 was stolen. That doesn't make me an election denier.

What's funny is Trump's claims about 2020 were his paranoia from 2000. He accused Dominion for example of doing what Diebold Voting Company did in 2000.

I won't continue. All I have to do is stop here. With shady Diebold Voting Machines. Owned by who? A Big Time George Bush supporter. Who btw headed the Re Elect Bush in 2004 in none other than OHIO, where they stole that state from Kerry.

Trump's claims about 2016, 2020 and 2024, were all bullshit. He's an election denier. Well, only when he loses. When he wins he stops lying about this and starts lying about other things. And you swallow it all.
 
You are anti American. I just drove my F150 to Florida in Feb and back yesterday. It runs like a dream. My brother has a really old F150. Runs like a dream.

Stop bashing Americans and American companies. I thought you wanted to MAGA
I found the f-150 to be by far the toughest truck on the road.

That's excellent! People will hold on to their older cars longer....creating a forced price drop on the new products! A win for all!

Another good point, under xiden and dems the price of a new car skyrocketed to historic levels.
 
Yeah I got one dipshit trying to say that the economy was booming under xiden and that’s why unions went on strike

Sigh.... apparently dementia is contagious....
 
Don't even care, makes my used car worth more.
Republicans laws in 49 states forced all drivers to pay for insurance that covers expensive new vehicles. It now cost's $100/month to just insure your old vehicle, thanks to these expensive new cars.
