I hope so. It is time to finally win a fight against stupidity in my lifetime.
Current New Vehicle Market

Median is different than average. Hence why I asked. I was just curious. Not trying to decode your personal comp.
Correct, in this case its only $18k difference. Lol
Every time I think the local RAM dealer has a lot of inventory, he adds more, LOL. I see RAM power promotions have returned also. I will say it looks like total discounts are similar to what I see on Ford and Chevy locally.
If Honda made an America centric V8 half-ton (maybe put an old 300 4-wheeler in the bed) they'd take a sizeable chunk of the domestic market.
Looks like all the localish Ford dealers have settled at $5,000 ADM on their Dark Horses. Plenty to choose from.
I’d still rather have a used GT350, or Mach 1 over a Dark Horse.

Almost 14k off hybrid XLT.
This is my 12th year working for Honda and I would say the civic being one of the cheapest options is by far one of the best vehicles they make and that has been true for decades. With the switch to R1234yf Freon they had some a/c issues but those have been remedied with warranty extensions. My wife’s 2015 civic cost us $18k new and ran 167,000 miles before being totaled. We had done fluids, 1 set of brake pads and tires in that time frame. Still original plugs even. Best car we’ve ever owned.
Although I’m in service and not sales, I don’t hear anyone complaint about the lack of manual vehicles on the lot. It’s rare I’ll come across a manual in the service drive and when I do our porters (young guys) don’t know to drive them and most of the young express techs don’t know how and don’t care to learn. They all drive autos except maybe 1 of them. The only manuals I see come through are older cars and si and type r models. Which is a shame because Honda makes a great manual when they do.
Maybe, but I think it would still have a stigma like the ridgeline does. Unpopular opinion but that “truck” does all the truck stuff 75% of buyers actually need, especially in the midsize segment.
I looked at Ridgelines and as you say, exactly the truck I need for what I use a truck for. However, I could never get around the looks of it. The cab to bed transition and the sunken in wheels kills it.
Not to mention it serves as a rolling vagina dehydrator.....
Parts availability.
This year when they gave us our 2024 Super Duty allocations...it was specified by how many diesels we could order, black platform running boards, 5th wheel prep package, Tremor, etc etc etc.
Took advantage of the finance rates on the 2023 expeditions.
Wagoneer was cool, but glitchy.
Limited with heavy duty tow package and 15" screen.

Those deals on XLTs are pretty healthy.
I haven’t seen a new F150 for more than 2-3k off in months.
If I had not just signed off on $55,000 in roofing, I’d consider selling our ‘15 to my dad and snagging a new one. Oh well.

The latest ones are….better? Still not what I would call an attractive vehicle. The optional hpd wheels go a long way but there isn’t any way to really get around that cab to bed transition with it not being a body on frame actual truck. I still think the trunk inside the bed is awesome lol
They just jacked the MSRP up before they gave the "So Called" Discount.
I'm not sure how bad it is around you, but around here in FL the dealers that offer a lot off MSRP tack it back on with dealer add ons and crazy dealer fees.
Looked at an Expedition in Tampa, 6-7k off. Only tacked on 4k+ in addons and fees.
And then lowballed the trade.
Maybe since there seems to be more F150's on the lots there truly are discounts to be had. Think today is the last day for the 2.9/3.9% from Ford for 23s
You don't tend to see as much of that around here. The old big 3 really duke it out with pickup sales.
