汽车价格在7月见顶后下降 | 口语小本本spoken.cc

[00:00.00]When we visited this California 
[00:01.73]Toyota dealership a year ago, 
[00:03.20]this van was the only new car they had, 
[00:06.35]and someone had just bought it.
[00:08.33]"Do you think they ever test drove it?"
[00:09.81]"My guess would be no."
[00:11.74]Today Keith Hernandez has a 
[00:13.76]few more cars on the lot, 
[00:15.37]and the good news for anyone in the market 
[00:16.98]for a new ride is that price is nationwide 
[00:18.90]while up from a year ago are cooling.
[00:21.16]Down an average 574 dollars 
[00:23.22]from their peak in July. 
[00:24.46]But at Hernandez's dealership, 
[00:26.30]the best buys are across the street.
[00:28.41]Why do you have so many 
[00:29.54]used cars right now?
[00:30.61]So great question, mainly for those that 
[00:32.76]don't want to wait the 6 to 10 12 months.
[00:35.88]New cars are still so scarce, 
[00:38.62]there's a waiting list, 
[00:39.88]and dealership profits off each vehicle 
[00:42.18]have soared since before the pandemic.
[00:43.89]What we're finding is we can 
[00:45.10]sell few cars less per month, 
[00:48.36]but make twice, three times as much.
[00:50.95]But these used cars cost the dealers money, 
[00:54.23]and they are eager to get that money back, 
[00:56.35]the increase in inventory is 
[00:58.65]giving buyers some opportunity.
[01:00.18]Now we're starting to see 
[01:01.53]some return to normalcy, 
[01:02.81]so it is getting slightly better.
[01:04.83]But we're not talking about you know 
[01:06.43]2017 2018 conditions in which cars 
[01:09.65]are plentiful and discounts are everywhere.
[01:11.91]So how do you get ahead of the pack? 
[01:14.60]find out what your current car is worth, 
[01:16.51]some used cars are 
[01:17.75]actually increasing in value.
[01:19.79]Lock in your loan rate 
[01:21.32]before the FED drives it higher, 
[01:22.68]and make a realistic budget that 
[01:25.30]includes repairs, fuel costs, and inflation.
[01:28.18]And remember, because used cars are 
[01:30.63]so hard to come by, 
[01:32.30]the one you own makes you irresistible.
[01:34.80]"It's a dealership, that kind of customer 
[01:36.86]that comes in with the trade-in 
[01:37.91]today is twice as valuable."
