Why so hard to find a vehicle?

So..... We sold our durango (to expensive on gas and it was our only vehicle and we had to share it).

now we are looking for 2 vehicles, a truck for myself and a car for my wife. Thinking about a newer impala for my wife (good family car, good on gas, good reviews, the mechanical parts have been around for a long time and have lived up a good reputation and they have good ratings being that they are also used as police cruisers).....anyhow...we are pretty sure thats what we will be getting for her but thats not going to be for a couple of weeks from now before we start searching hard for one.

in the mean time we are looking for a truck for me, would prefer a short bed v8 4x4.

sorry for the venting LOL it just that it seems like when you are broke as a joke that good deals are popping up left and right.....and when you have cash to buy something there is nothing.

I have drove and drove and drove looking for something, checked the papers,checked the auto&rv mags,been to autotrader.com ,searched craigslist up and down within 150 mile radius.......nothing worth a damn.

anyhow, if anyone in or near lower MI has a truck for sale for $3,000.00 or under let me know HAHA
