Used vehicle prices fell 1.5% from April to May according to the Manheim Used Vehicle Value Index. Despite this drop, prices remained 4% higher than they were a year earlier. April’s prices hit the highest level since October 2023. The index tracks prices of used vehicles sold at U.S. wholesale auctions. Retail prices, which typically follow wholesale trends, have not decreased as quickly in recent years. Used vehicle inventory stands at 2.2 million, lower than historical levels. This low inventory, coupled with consumers holding onto their vehicles longer, contributes to sustained demand. Retail used vehicle sales in May decreased by 3% from April but increased by 4% compared to the previous year.

May 8 DO NOT PAY $320+ on these right now. Do these let some reseller finesse you saying they’ll be $500 by summer because they won’t.
These are gonna drop like third-period French, its the highest stock I’ve seen all year and theyre releasing everywhere. These will be near or at

Apr 7 In May 2014, crude oil was around $108 per barrel. Today, in April 2025, it’s down to $63.30 — a nearly 41% drop, the lowest since 2021.
Yet under Modinomics, petrol prices remain high — whether crude goes up or down.
The common man pays the price — every time.
