Back in mid 2019, the local Ford dealer offered my folks a brand new, fully optioned Explorer in exchange for their vanilla 2017 Expedition- an offer they gladly accepted.

You could be my neighbor. He has about 5 vehicles in various stages of repair/restoration. My fav is his 49 Chevy pickup. I can relate to that because I was born in 49.
I'm not selling any more firearms. I'm getting some bad vibes with the civil unrest and the shortages. People are spooked.
In the P-F basket of deplorables.
My wife's Sienna needed an oil change and a fuel pump recall the other day, so I had to go to the dealership. I noticed the same thing - the lot was barren. Only a bare handful of vehicles of any flavor.

Stepson was out and about, a couple weeks back, when his '07 Infiniti popped a code. He was near a Nissan dealership and dropped it at their service center. When we went to pick him up, three dealership employees in a row aggressively tried to talk us into selling our car. Stepson reports they also lobbied to get him to sell the Infiniti while he was waiting for us. Lot wasn't all that empty but apparently demand is there. Interesting times...
It's only been through 1.5 Chicago winters (came up last January). And that was a very light winter, we had almost no salt on the road.
This past October, before winter began, I had the truck thoroughly sprayed with Fluid Film. My truck's undercarriage is oily from Fluid Film, but it ain't rusty.
Well, there are some rock chips down past the primer on the hood. But I plan to just strip it down and powdercoat it when I get my garage setup after the move.
Nothing is worse than the GM work truck white. It starts peeling in five years or less in warm/humid climates. When it really progresses, it can fly off in sheets when you get on the highway. Any white Express/Savana or Silverado/Sierra "WT" east of I-35 and south of the Maxon Dixon Line is doomed.
