Key word is “starting”. Covid shutdown and supply chain shortages contributed to price hikes. Let’s take a Ford truck for instance. Even after Covid, if there was an assembled truck available, it still didn’t hit the market because it didn’t have a chip. Another in a long line of reasons why manufacturing needs to be done at home. Trump has Taiwan now opening a chip plant here. They’re the largest chip manufacturer in the world. I bought a 2022 Tundra TRD Pro…..about a 6 month wait and I was lucky to get interior/exterior colors I wanted, and they’re assembled here in Texas. We as Americans want everything now, we’ll pay for it later, doesn’t work when we have to rely on foreign parts. Too much politics involved and we are spoiled.
