I hope you’re not an accountant or a math teacher! Run that math problem again, bro.

$22.5k gross profit.

No. A $62,500 purchase, plus tax and license comes out to around $70,000. $85,000 minus $70,000 nets out at $15,000.

How's that Bitcoin doing? Did you get a margin call? What's the interest rate on your 84 month car loan going to be? How is the equity in your house? Hope you did not take it all out to finance your toys. The party for free money is over. Cash will be king in 6 months. I hope dealers will be sitting on inventory so I can buy some more toys.

Not related to the ADM, but Chevy raised the price of the 2023’s by $2400 effective 6/13. With my options set I am looking at a 3500$ increase.

I doubt it will push these 100k+ ones higher, but everyone is going to be paying more going forward.
