Used market drop 👎🏻

Oh yeah! TRX @ 7800 GVWR + Sect 179 = $26,200!!!!!!!!!!!
If I had a job to use mine as a work vehicle I kinda feel like that would be bad ass get paid to be in it and enjoy while making some 💰. Best of both worlds. I went ahead and ordered a 23 f250 but that will be a minute till it arrives by then I’ll either have this thing modded out with performance or be waiting for pricing when the Stroke arrives.

I only use my truck as transportation to and from meetings (I work in commercial design using Revit software).
Its good, but not quite as good as 2004 being able to write off 100% of my Hummer H2 in year one. Ahhhh, those were the good old days!

I had worked as an independent project manager for several years and I really enjoyed the tax advantages and also maxing out my 401k...."unfortunately", the company I was working through made me a "cannot pass go" offer to join them full-time....so here we are.

I work for one of the big name oil field companies so I’m provided a work truck for all my daily needs. Never have been in a job where I could write off my vehicle for tax purposes.

There are good and bad to both (job and self employed), but I have been self employed (30 years) more years than all my jobs combined. So I just dont know any different.
 
I know a dealer near me who is upside down on 9 out of 10 of their used inventory. They have like 8 G-Wagons they are upside down by about 50k on each......the market has corrected for used cars faster then many would like but I think things are normalizing.

The TRX is still one of the best value holds on this price range. As long as Ram doesn't do rebates on them, we are going to be a little behind the market in terms of price correction.

I love reading that. Puts a big smile on my face when people who add no value to the supply chain lose money.

Love my TRX, and still can't find another vehicle I would rather be in, in the same price range. Nothing. It's the Jack of trades of a vehicle, not the best at anything but great at everything.

Some of the dealers taking the biggest hit were mark up dealers so I have zero issues watching them struggle and get beat up as well. This particular dealer screwed a friend of mine whose car showed up after 8-9 months and they told him 50k over. He had a purchase order at msrp from a previous GM.....they gave him his deposit back and said sue us and walked him out of the dealership.

This was a good watch. Way worse then the local high end dealer bagholding:

What do you do? I, too, am in the design industry with Revit & AutoCAD, among other software. Still working for the man, but getting close to just working for myself.

My company (by company I mean just me) provides CAD and Revit design work for very small architecture firms. Mostly the single architect shops or older guys who are working on small projects. They give me the information and their sketches, and I turn it into a CAD or Revit file and then we refine the design over Zoom meetings. The CAD and Revit allows them to work with the engineering firms on the rest of the project. I kind of fell into it 25 + - years ago by accident, but it beats real work!

What field are you in where you use Revit?
 
You don't buy 100k toys for investment purposes. but the price increases on the new ones will soften the depreciation.
