Has anyone seen any deals due to this pandemic?

I see no downside to waiting no and some upside. Some hobby users may need cash instead of a neat toy they use 50 hours a year.

50 hours each year?
I don't even come close to that!
But I don't care either.
I am just too old to worry about it.

I talked to my Ford dealer last week. He has a 2020 F150 Limited that he would knock down from list of 75k to 62k. That's a pretty good deal.

"That's a pretty good deal"
Ya really think so?
I think that is a terrible deal!

It,s very hard for me to believe it is a sellers market. Very few limited buyers with all the covid stuff going on, and so much of the population out of work, that can barely make it, from week to week. I,m guessing that all the dealers of cars, trucks, and tractors are trying very hard to not be the first ones to start having covid 19 deep discount sales, cause they will probably be blackba$$ed by other dealers who might refuse to do dealer trades etc with them. Once the dam bursts, and I got a feeling it will happen within the next 6 of months, watch out, there will be loads of great deals to be had by the financially ready buyers.

I pray my dealer and others makes his "normal profit" not needing to "fire sale" tractors; that way I can be assured of his existance because we all need them.

Did an airbag upgrade on a brand new kind of plain F-150 XLT yesterday. Contract was in the G-box.

Guy financed $52K after his trade of a 2017 F-350 for 6 years with 6 months deferred payments, $735/ month and he trades every 3 years. His trade was pretty much a wash.

That's a lot of groceries. Like Mossroad says lot of paper plates around but no deals. Anything over 1/2 ton doesn't have zero interest.

I TOTALLY AGREE !!!
The individuals selling their used equipment may take it on the chin also!

I think we are talking about 2 different things.
Its a seller market because of supply and demand. Econ 101 bro. You sound like youre talking about the ability of the seller difficulties to conduct business because of labor issues because of the BUG.
Once the manufacturers quit making tractors & trucks......might be noteworthy to mention , we ARE talking trucks & tractors, right? Were not talking like club crackers or diet root beer, correct??
Anyways, once the manufacturers quit making trucks and tractors, which has been the case for about 2 months now, the SUPPLY will run out. The DEMAND is not as great as it was, but there IS still a lot of demand. Gubmit is giving out free toad skins to bidnitzes all over the 57 states and they are SPENDING that money on new wheels! So the DEMAND is there, but the dealers know the SUPPLY is running out!!
That theres what cha call a SELLERS market!

You think????
That痴 a little less than what I paid for a Loaded RAM 5500 crew cab 4WD Cummins diesel chassis. A lot more truck than a king ranch F150

So??? What's your point? A lot more is relative.

Why? 13k off msrp is a good thing.
