i cant comment on the validity of any shortage. i only know what i see. i see new car lots on the side of "empty". and i see used car prices stupid high.

i am in the market for a new ride. did the car manufacturers cease car production while the chips are backordered, or did they crank our a few hundred thousand cars and are waiting for the chips to arrive to be plugged in...(however a chip is installed)??

i saw a report that mid 2023 the car industry should come back to normal. will they be selling 2022 models as 23 year cars?

super confusing to me. all of it.

my old truck timing is awful. just awful. i'm thankful it is a toyota. but its getting a bit rough looking. i have never owned a car past 200k miles. probably since i like old jeeps and chevy s10'S. not the high mileage dream team for sure.
