So I have been watching it since I have been working from home, and lately they have been giving away the cheap cars. I have seen 3 cobalts and today they are giving away a Ford Focus. What happen to the days of the Mustangs and Camaros??

You never noticed they gave away stripped down base models of those cars too?? They always give away the ones like that. I'm more amazed that the show is still on the air and Bob Barker isn't dead yet!! You think maybe they replaced him with a clone??

You know that the show is getting those cars either free or close enough to it.

 

And since companies are using this for advertising, and the price is the big focus on the car, they want it to be as low as possible. Then the consumers watching will go "it's only xxx for that car, I should go look at one."

 

They don't want the consumers getting the loaded out model price in their head.

If I remember, most of the car pricing games were designed with four digits in mind, making the most expensive option $9999. Of course, with inflation, all the cars people would actually want are a good bit more than that, so they're kinda stuck. As for Bob Barker, didn't Mensan's video teach you anything? He's a cranky old man that CBS won't let retire, no matter how wrong the price is, bitch.

 

Yeah, I'm gonna go sit in my corner now :)

I had a friend that won a bunch of stuff on there he didn't need or like. The tax on it was stupid high. Cali sales tax is like 8.25%. He left it all there and didn't take it home. I bet most people who go on there do not take the stuff home because they can't afford to pay the Tax. So most stuff is not "donated" it is returned and gets free advertising.
