My dealer has had some off and on. His prices are comparable to Wally World prices. That being siad, it's still higher than the "good ol' days". However, so is everything else. Give inflation a chance. 3% for 30 years means everything basically doubles in price over that time frame. My grandfather bought his first new car back in the 30's. $600.... of course he only made $1200 that year. I wonder what .22 ammunition was in say 1935?
You young guys better be planning your retirement funding now........
What Things Cost in 1935:
Car: $580
Gasoline: 19 cents/gal
House: $6,300
Bread: 8 cents/loaf
Milk: 47 cents/gal
Postage Stamp: 3 cents
Stock Market: 144
Average Annual Salary: $1,500
Of course the cars had no air conditioning, CD players, Blue Tooth, GPS, ETC............
