We’re paying the last payment on my wife’s car this month. We’ve been getting calls and emails from the dealership telling us what a prefect time it would be to upgrade. One night the gummies kicked in and I decided to reply to the clearly automated and canned email. It was dripping with snark, along the lines of “I’ll never buy a car because an email prompted me to”. Got a call the next day from the dealership where they apologized… and then went right into a sales pitch.
I bought a new Subaru two years ago and love it. But only days later they started sending me offers to trade in my new car for a brand new Subaru! They email two offers every week and I haven’t unsubscribed because it’s amusing to see the value of my car go down and occasionally up (its value increased in December before dropping again). Right now they’re valuing my car, purchased for $28k, at $17k after 24 months of ownership.

Them offering 60% after 2 years seems pretty good for a dealership tbh.
