The shortage will bottom out next year, but supply won't match demand until 2023. Beyond consoles, better be sure your car is also good until then as well. Pay whatever it cost to keep that shit running until then.

Im sure the production line workers are being paid minimum wage with 84 hour work weeks and no breaks or benefits. You know, sort of like everywhere else.

Yeah theres a huge backlog of cars with a lot of manufacturers that are basically built but warehoused because they dont have ECUs and other electronics to slot into them to finish them.

Meanwhile inventory of both new and used cars is short and a lot of dealers are taking a page out of the scalper book and charging over MSRP for new cars.

Yeah,my wife's Jeep crapped out a couple of weeks ago and finding a decent used car for a reasonable price was literally impossible.

Got 4k for the Jeep and still have 20k to pay off on a dinged up '19 Impreza.

Modern cars have a lot of electric components. And no manufacturer is about to go all mechanical over a temporary shortage so good luck finding one reasonably priced. With a lack of new cars coming in, the demand for used cars went way up to the point the market went crazy.
