What is the most popular car in South Dakota these days? How about anything you can find on the lot, right?

The topic of cars is a frustrating subject for a number of people, right now. With the current car shortage everywhere, it seems like if you can find a new car, or a good condition used car at the moment, it's a win.

To be honest, if you look hard enough, there are still good new and used cars to be found, but it definitely requires more work than it used to. Gone is the day, when you can drive up to your favorite car dealership, find the make, model, and favorite color of your dreams, take it for a test drive and start the negotiation process. Hopefully, things will begin to correct themselves soon. Until then, it is what it is.
