  1. 0:00Have you seen the prices of a new car
  2. 0:02lately? 80,000, 90,000 for a truck
  3. 0:05you're going to beat up and wear out.
  4. 0:10>> US dealerships are bursting at the seams
  5. 0:12with unaffordable trucks that nobody
  6. 0:13wants to buy.
  7. 0:16>> How does a Jeep Wrangler cost 100,000
  8. 0:18dollars?
  9. 0:19How does a RAM 1500 cost 95,000?
  10. 0:22It's insane, it makes no sense.
  11. 0:26They compete with Mercedes-Benz prices
  12. 0:28and domestic manufacturers, but now you
  13. 0:30go to that same dealership and see
  14. 0:32discounts of 24,000, 30,000, and it's
  15. 0:34still not enough, it's still expensive
  16. 0:36because vehicles went up 50%in 5 years.
  17. 0:42>> I bought it for about 125,000 dollars,
  18. 0:44put 50,000 down, and my payment ended up
  19. 0:47being 1,375 a month.
  20. 0:49Today I still owe about 69,000.
  21. 0:52If I want to sell this truck, it's worth
  22. 0:5480,000 at most.
  23. 0:57>> Ford CEO Jim Farley has repeatedly
  24. 0:59called Chinese electric cars an
  25. 1:01existential threat to Western
  26. 1:03manufacturers.
  27. 1:07>> To put it in perspective, 3 years ago
  28. 1:09the Chinese market share in Australia
  29. 1:11was 3%.
  30. 1:12Now it's 30%and they no longer have a
  31. 1:15domestic manufacturer to protect.
  32. 1:18>> Detroit brands thought they were
  33. 1:20invincible, charging up to 90,000
  34. 1:22dollars for a work truck, but their
  35. 1:25party is over.
  36. 1:26Inventory is rotting on the showroom
  37. 1:28floors. China is selling 25,000 dollar
  38. 1:31electric cars to crush them. How did the
  39. 1:34most powerful industry in the world fall
  40. 1:36into its own trap?
  41. 1:38For years, US manufacturers lined their
  42. 1:41pockets at the expense of squeezing the
  43. 1:44consumer.
  44. 1:45They put giant screens on ordinary
  45. 1:47chassis, and tried to charge
  46. 1:49Mercedes-Benz prices for work trucks.
  47. 1:52The result is a mountain of stranded
  48. 1:54metal. Buyers simply can no longer
  49. 1:57afford them.
  50. 1:59>> Dealerships are full and their profit
  51. 2:01per vehicle has fallen significantly
  52. 2:04from the 2022 and 2023 highs.
  53. 2:07Before, they were making a fortune per
  54. 2:09car by scamming you with extra fees,
  55. 2:11market adjustments, tires filled with
  56. 2:12nitrogen, the list goes on.
  57. 2:15We have seen so many extras that
  58. 2:16dealerships add, and it's not just that
  59. 2:18.
  60. 2:20>> Dealerships are trapped in a death trap
  61. 2:23called floorplan financing costs.
  62. 2:26Every day a truck is parked on the lot
  63. 2:28in the rain.
  64. 2:30The dealership pays gut-wrenching bank
  65. 2:32interest and there are already 3 million
  66. 2:34new vehicles sitting across the country
  67. 2:36.
  68. 2:38>> The longer a car spends on the lot, the
  69. 2:40more interest the dealership pays to
  70. 2:42keep it there.
  71. 2:44If you see a vehicle that's been on the
  72. 2:46lot for, I don't know, 220 days, that
  73. 2:48dealership is more eager to sell it than
  74. 2:49one that's been there for 20 days.
  75. 2:54>> Since 2019, the business is starting to
  76. 2:55look like it did before.
  77. 2:57It's crazy. Those who were there before
  78. 3:00see it coming back. We have 3 million
  79. 3:02new cars on the lots. We haven't had
  80. 3:04that in 5 or 6 years.
  81. 3:07>> To make matters worse, brands are trying
  82. 3:09to disguise the disaster. They offer
  83. 3:12supposed discounts that fool no one.
  84. 3:14They knock 20,000 dollars off an
  85. 3:16inflated model. They expect the customer
  86. 3:19to celebrate paying 80,000 dollars for
  87. 3:21something that isn't worth it.
  88. 3:24And that's after Jeep dropped the price
  89. 3:27by 20,000 dollars. It used to be a
  90. 3:29vehicle over 100,000 and they couldn't
  91. 3:31sell it. And you know what? They aren't
  92. 3:34selling it at 83,000 either.
  93. 3:36In seventh place, we have the GMC Savana
  94. 3:38Cargo Van.
  95. 3:41>> A truck is not tested when it leaves the
  96. 3:43factory.
  97. 3:45It is tested when hundreds of thousands
  98. 3:47have been driven hard, used for towing,
  99. 3:49left idling in Phoenix in July, started
  100. 3:51in Duluth in January, and someone kept
  101. 3:53track of what broke.
  102. 3:56>> Detroit is trying to resolve the
  103. 3:58oversupply of its own nonsense.
  104. 4:00The real danger lurks from Asia.
  105. 4:03Chinese manufacturers have achieved what
  106. 4:05the United States thinks is impossible.
  107. 4:08They produce high-tech, efficient cars
  108. 4:10at a fraction of the cost.
  109. 4:12If that tide manages to dodge tariff
  110. 4:14walls, the North American giants will
  111. 4:16become history.
  112. 4:19>> Without strict barriers and tariffs, the
  113. 4:21United States could be the next to
  114. 4:23receive a huge wave of ultra-cheap
  115. 4:25Chinese electric cars.
  116. 4:28A wave that could completely change the
  117. 4:29market for traditional manufacturers and
  118. 4:31global players.
  119. 4:34They are looking at the 25,000 to 30,000
  120. 4:36dollar price segment, where many
  121. 4:38manufacturers are focusing a lot of
  122. 4:40attention now.
  123. 4:43If you look at the big picture, we are
  124. 4:44at a fascinating crossroads in the
  125. 4:45automotive industry.
  126. 4:48>> The arrogance of truck brands left them
  127. 4:51blind. They didn't launch reliable
  128. 4:53vehicles for working people. They
  129. 4:56preferred to use the buyer as a guinea
  130. 4:58pig. They tested incomplete technologies
  131. 5:00and abusive prices.
  132. 5:03>> Industry veterans used to say it like
  133. 5:05this.
  134. 5:06Never buy the first year of anything.
  135. 5:10The one who buys the third year of a
  136. 5:12truck isn't stingier, just better
  137. 5:13informed.
  138. 5:15And that information didn't cost them
  139. 5:17anything.
  140. 5:18>> The dust-covered lots are just the
  141. 5:20symptom. There is a much deeper crisis.
  142. 5:24It threatens to change what you drive
  143. 5:26forever.
  144. 5:27And now I'm going to tell you about the
  145. 5:28desperate maneuvers. Dealerships use
  146. 5:31them behind closed doors to save
  147. 5:32themselves.
  148. 5:34And I will tell you why the Chinese wave
  149. 5:36is closer than they want you to believe
  150. 5:38.
  151. 5:39For years, Detroit executives celebrated
  152. 5:42record profits. They did it in their
  153. 5:45offices. They raised prices year after
  154. 5:47year. They thought easy credit would
  155. 5:50last forever.
  156. 5:52How wrong they all were at the
  157. 5:54traditional brands.
  158. 5:56Dealerships played along without asking
  159. 5:58the manufacturers.
  160. 6:00They filled their lots with gigantic
  161. 6:02100,000 dollar trucks. They added absurd
  162. 6:05markups and useless accessories to the
  163. 6:07contract. They put nitrogen in the tires
  164. 6:10. They also added inflated warranties
  165. 6:12with no real value.
  166. 6:14They turned the buying process into a
  167. 6:16complete nightmare.
  168. 6:18Between 2022 and 2023, they made
  169. 6:20historic fortunes.
  170. 6:23They squeezed the pockets of American
  171. 6:25buyers.
  172. 6:26Unbridled greed finally snapped the rope
  173. 6:28completely.
  174. 6:30Maintaining that inventory costs them up
  175. 6:32to 8.5%in interest. That interest is
  176. 6:35paid annually.
  177. 6:36Families shut off the spending tap.
  178. 6:40The average buyer can no longer afford $
  179. 6:4250,000, let alone $ 90,000 for a work
  180. 6:45truck.
  181. 6:46Wages never rose at the pace of
  182. 6:48industrial audacity. Banks began to
  183. 6:51tighten the screws on loans. Today, a
  184. 6:54car eats up to 20%of a monthly paycheck
  185. 6:57.
  186. 6:58The ghost of negative equity destroyed
  187. 7:00the usual commercial turnover.
  188. 7:02Millions of drivers owe more than their
  189. 7:05current vehicle is worth. They cannot
  190. 7:07trade in their old car due to a lack of
  191. 7:09capital. Banks are rejecting the most
  192. 7:11dubious financing applications.
  193. 7:14The business model collapsed like a
  194. 7:16house of cards.
  195. 7:18The consequences for distributors are
  196. 7:21devastating right now. Inventory
  197. 7:23financing costs are suffocating their
  198. 7:25daily finances. Some lenders are ending
  199. 7:28up suing dealerships for unpaid
  200. 7:30installments.
  201. 7:31Others prefer to sell their facilities
  202. 7:33to digital commerce giants.
  203. 7:36To try to save themselves, they applied
  204. 7:38desperate $ 30,000 discounts.
  205. 7:41They removed the markup stickers that
  206. 7:43outraged people in showrooms, but the
  207. 7:45medicine arrived too late to save the
  208. 7:48patient.
  209. 7:49Nobody wants to finance a vehicle that
  210. 7:51devalues instantly.
  211. 7:53Salespeople spend the day begging for a
  212. 7:55simple signature.
  213. 7:57The strategic blindness of the U.S.
  214. 7:59domestic industry was colossal.
  215. 8:02They abandoned affordable cars to
  216. 8:04manufacture only high-margin giants.
  217. 8:06They believed brand loyalty would
  218. 8:08withstand any financial abuse. They
  219. 8:11ignored that the global market demanded
  220. 8:13efficient and accessible vehicles.
  221. 8:15They built a giant empire on foundations
  222. 8:18of quicksand.
  223. 8:20While Detroit inflated bubbles, the rest
  224. 8:22of the world kept turning.
  225. 8:24Historic Asian brands are also feeling
  226. 8:27the hard impact of the paralysis. Nissan
  227. 8:30is facing its worst year of global sales
  228. 8:32since 2003. Its deliveries on Chinese
  229. 8:35soil fell 27%this year.
  230. 8:38The automotive earthquake does not
  231. 8:39respect rank or illustrious names.
  232. 8:42Honda had to hurriedly reorganize its
  233. 8:44North American production lines. It
  234. 8:47delayed the launch of its new model
  235. 8:49until April 2027. It canceled sedan
  236. 8:52production to rescue its best-selling
  237. 8:54model.
  238. 8:55It barely has 17 days of inventory left
  239. 8:57for that key vehicle.
  240. 9:00Supply chains are creaking everywhere.
  241. 9:03But the real danger was lurking
  242. 9:05patiently on the other side of the
  243. 9:07planet.
  244. 9:08China did not improvise its industrial
  245. 9:10plan on just any afternoon. They
  246. 9:12designed five-year plans with
  247. 9:14mathematical precision for entire
  248. 9:16decades. They secured global control of
  249. 9:18rare minerals and batteries. They set a
  250. 9:21perfect trap for the traditional Western
  251. 9:24industry.
  252. 9:25The paralysis in sales lots is just the
  253. 9:27beginning of it all. The collapse in
  254. 9:30sales and price gouging created the
  255. 9:32ideal scenario. The perfect storm is
  256. 9:34already forming on the North American
  257. 9:36horizon.
  258. 9:37In the next chapter, we will analyze the
  259. 9:39cold figures that terrify Detroit.
  260. 9:42The real numbers that manufacturers try
  261. 9:44to hide from you at all costs.
  262. 9:47Let's talk about the numbers that cause
  263. 9:49cold sweats in Detroit.
  264. 9:51There are 3 million new vehicles
  265. 9:52gathering dust at dealerships.
  266. 9:55A metal desert left out in the sun. For
  267. 9:58the Chevrolet Silverado alone, there are
  268. 10:00almost 40,000 units sitting idle. Of the
  269. 10:02famous Jeep Wrangler, there are over
  270. 10:0427,000 floating without a buyer.
  271. 10:07Executives believed that charging $
  272. 10:0950,000 for a car or that people would
  273. 10:11happily pay $ 100,000 for a truck was
  274. 10:13fine.
  275. 10:16What a way to go against reality. On the
  276. 10:19lots, there are desperate discounts of $
  277. 10:2124,000 and $ 30,000, and even then,
  278. 10:23people don't want to sign the contracts
  279. 10:26. In 2016, a fully loaded Silverado cost
  280. 10:30that much. Today, that's the price of
  281. 10:32the most basic version. Banks have
  282. 10:34turned off the tap for fear of defaults
  283. 10:36.
  284. 10:37Today, 3 million cars are racking up
  285. 10:39millions in costs at showrooms. The
  286. 10:41great American dream of 0%interest
  287. 10:44turned into a trap.
  288. 10:46But the Western headache doesn't end at
  289. 10:48its borders.
  290. 10:50In China, domestic demand fell by 21%
  291. 10:52this year.
  292. 10:54Factory profits fell by 23%, and what
  293. 10:57did the Asian giants do in the face of
  294. 10:59the crisis?
  295. 11:01They launched a global export offensive
  296. 11:03with no historical precedent.
  297. 11:05China manufactures almost 40%of the
  298. 11:08planet's vehicles. Its annual production
  299. 11:11capacity nears 50 million units.
  300. 11:15Ford CEO Jim Farley drove a Chinese car
  301. 11:17.
  302. 11:19He confessed it was an industrial
  303. 11:20monster and didn't want to return it.
  304. 11:23The price difference borders on absolute
  305. 11:25insolence.
  306. 11:27In Great Britain, the electric BYD
  307. 11:29Dolphin Surf model costs $ 25,000.
  308. 11:32A modern car equipped with the latest
  309. 11:34technology and an efficient battery.
  310. 11:37Meanwhile, Detroit expects to sell you a
  311. 11:39basic truck for triple that.
  312. 11:42The math is so simple that even an
  313. 11:44executive would understand it.
  314. 11:46On British soil alone, BYD sold more
  315. 11:49than 48,000 cars. That happened in 8
  316. 11:52months.
  317. 11:53In continental Europe, not even tariffs
  318. 11:56are stopping the Asian advance. Their
  319. 11:58cars remain 40%cheaper.
  320. 12:02Look at what happened in Australia in
  321. 12:04just 3 years. The Chinese market share
  322. 12:06went from 3%to 30%.
  323. 12:08The commercial value of traditional
  324. 12:10dealerships has been cut in half. The
  325. 12:13mythical loyalty to historic brands has
  326. 12:15evaporated completely. If the product
  327. 12:18costs half as much, loyalty simply
  328. 12:20doesn't exist.
  329. 12:22The West thought China was simply
  330. 12:24copying old designs. What a costly
  331. 12:27blindness for the legacy brands.
  332. 12:29Beijing executed 15 five-year plans to
  333. 12:31secure rare earth minerals. They control
  334. 12:34the global battery chain from the mine
  335. 12:36to the port.
  336. 12:38While Detroit played quarterly poker,
  337. 12:40China bought the whole casino.
  338. 12:43And the onslaught won't stop at the
  339. 12:45cargo ships. By 2030, China will
  340. 12:48manufacture 1.3 million European cars.
  341. 12:51That will represent 9%of local European
  342. 12:54production.
  343. 12:56It’s the Chinese strategy game: surround
  344. 12:57the rival until they suffocate.
  345. 13:00In the United States, they entrenched
  346. 13:02themselves behind a 100%tariff. But the
  347. 13:05proposal to allow Chinese factories
  348. 13:07sparked total panic. Detroit brands
  349. 13:10screamed bloody murder.
  350. 13:13They know that without state barriers,
  351. 13:15their trucks will die very quickly.
  352. 13:18The numbers don't lie, and the storm is
  353. 13:20already at the door.
  354. 13:22The traditional industry faces the
  355. 13:24biggest challenge in its history. The
  356. 13:26question keeping thousands of families
  357. 13:28up at night is inevitable.
  358. 13:30Who will pay the final bill when this
  359. 13:33empire of markups explodes? In the final
  360. 13:35chapter, I will reveal the catastrophic
  361. 13:38outcome.
  362. 13:39Dealerships are paying dearly for their
  363. 13:41own greed. The financial cost of keeping
  364. 13:44thousands of trucks parked is eating
  365. 13:46their profits.
  366. 13:48Imagine being a salesperson in a lot
  367. 13:50full of trucks no one buys.
  368. 13:51You arrive every morning to a sea of
  369. 13:53metal with no customers.
  370. 13:56The markup business turned into a daily
  371. 13:58nightmare.
  372. 14:00Buyers suddenly woke up from the dream
  373. 14:02of unlimited consumption.
  374. 14:04People refuse to negotiate inflated
  375. 14:06contracts with absurd options and
  376. 14:08warranties. Among trucks turned in as
  377. 14:11trade-ins, almost a third are worth less
  378. 14:14. Their value doesn't cover what is
  379. 14:15still owed on them.
  380. 14:17Today, banks are turning off the tap and
  381. 14:19rejecting doubtful applications.
  382. 14:22The agony of traditional retail
  383. 14:23accelerated the sale of showrooms.
  384. 14:25Carvana is taking advantage of the
  385. 14:27debacle to buy bankrupt dealerships.
  386. 14:30Buyers prefer to purchase their vehicles
  387. 14:32online without abusive pressure. No one
  388. 14:35wants to waste hours enduring games in
  389. 14:37the finance office.
  390. 14:39The business model focused on maximizing
  391. 14:41margins collapsed miserably.
  392. 14:44Traditional intermediaries face a slow
  393. 14:47and painful extinction.
  394. 14:50The financial damage is not limited only
  395. 14:53to US soil. Look at what is happening
  396. 14:55with the value of global automotive
