Yep, Kung Flu and the chip shortage are great for the used car market. Noticed the used car inflation when I bought my new Forester in August year. Certified used prices were within $2K of new and few on the lot. To me it became a no brainer. Things have worsened since; both with used car prices and the chip issue. Maybe if cars had less Nanny systems, the chip shortage might mitigate slightly.
Local Chrysler plant has had to shutdown due to chip issues. Pano had an article this month about the number of cars affected and production shortcomings. Probably here for a while as increasing capacity is so costly.
