Got back from road trip yesterday and open key closet where my non-daily set of red and black keys hung (other red was on my daily key chain). Thing sure did feel empty. I looked at about 4 seconds or so. Sigh.

Yeh I know the feelings all too well being the Pandemic totally changed my business and income. So uh huh GT500 gone, Redeye gone Charger Hellcat gone, Ford Raptor gone, Honda Civic Type R gone, Jeep Wrangler Rubicon gone and its still not over😳. So yeh I feel your pain and yeh I know I could have kept some but the used car prices was just to tempting. And I know when the timing is right I will be back but if you miss it that much than hell go buy another one.😁

It does suck, and I have a feeling prices (of anything) aren't going down anytime soon.

Hope it turns around fast for you Mag. Coming through the keyboard, seams you have the intelligence and experience to keep things under control and make moves to position yourself to stay out of critical danger. (maybe I'll get there some day. LOL).
Soooo, what are you driving now?

Got this from one of my suppliers
1. Increased commodity cost the past six months due to increased global demand; oil +38%, iron ore +27%, aluminum +25%, lead +17%, copper +23%, zinc +15%, nickel +9%.
2. Rising plastic prices due to oil spikes.
3. Corrugated shortages causing packaging to increase
4. Extreme tightening of factory capacity due to heavy world demand of goods.
5. Increased labor rates domestically and across Asia due to higher minimum wages and competition for workers.
6. 63% Increased transportation costs in the past five months to bring products across the ocean due to:
• Container shortages China, Taiwan, India, Vietnam and Cambodia
• Surcharges to obtain space on container ships and Port surcharges due to backed up offloading.
• 38% fuel cost increase since March 31st, 2021

I thought he bought one in May, and was just waiting for it to finish charging up so he could drive it.

Still interested in them, but nope, not in the driveway. Too rare out here (see the post about how hard it was for a guy to get a replacement wheel out here).
