*These are the top 10 cars take the longest to sell (and it's not even close)*

If 2022 seemed like a hard time to buy a car, try doing it in 2023. The auto industry is still in the throes of a worldwide chip and parts shortage, first brought about by the covid pandemic, which for months shuttered factories and supply chains, crunching demand. Related: BMW is sinking $750M into this beloved car to develop 2 new versions Many of these suppliers are still struggling to catch up, and high-performance chips, which require precision and time to manufacture, aren't made overnight. Pair that with higher interest rates in the U.S., and it makes buying a new car quite the pricey task. In fact, the September Consumer Price Index saw everything from food to gasoline to new cars go up compared to the year prior. Here's a breakdown of what some of the most recent data points look like: Food: increase 3.7% year-over-year Gasoline: increase 3% year-over-yearTransportation services: increase 9.1% year-over-yearNew vehicles: increase 2.5%. year-over-year In a glimmer of hope, used cars and trucks decreased 8% year-over-year. An 8% decrease in used car prices seems like a welcome reprieve, but anyone who's in the market for a new car should be prepared to pay up. New vehicles still cost an average of over $48,000. As of May 2023 only three models were available in the U.S. market for $20,000 or less.Some new vehicles take much longer to leave the lot And while some used auto dealers might not have as tough of a time haggling with prospective customers this month, new car dealerships seem to be struggling with certain makes and models. New data from Black Book indicates there are 10 vehicles that sit around on the lot for a far longer time than many others. And some of these brands, which are known for the luxurious appeal or reliability, might surprise you. They are: BMW iX: average 131 days on lotGMC Yukon: average 127 days on lotBuick Encore GX: average 120 days on lotAudi A4: average 115 days on lotBMW X7: average 110 days on lotJaguar F-Type: average 105 days on lotMini Countryman: average 105 days on lotBMW X2: average 105 days on lot GMC Terrain: average 102 days sitting on lotAlfa Romeo Giulia: average 99 days sitting on lot A BMW iX1 electric vehicle (EV) at the BMW AG pavilion in the Open Space area during the Munich Motor Show (IAA) in Munich, Germany, on Tuesday, Sept. 5, 2023.

*Cathie Wood pours $6 million into recently declining software giant*

Shares of Roku (ROKU) - Get Free Report tanked 8% Wednesday after Wells Fargo analyst Steve Cahall cut his price target for the company. Cahall, citing concerns about a softening trend in the ad market for the fourth quarter, brought his price target down to $70 from $84, and warned that Roku might experience some pullback. "We heard at our Advertising Day last month that scatter remains weak quarter-over-quarter, while Roku will also face a reduction in media and entertainment spend due to the ongoing Hollywood strikes," he wrote, adding that he expects weaker fourth-quarter guidance as well. Related: Cathie Wood takes $7 million out of wildly successful stock right before earnings The analyst additionally projected that revenue per streaming hour will fall 8% year-over-year in the fourth quarter, and that platform revenue would come in at $780 million, below Street consensus. Though Roku's stock is down about 17% over the past quarter, shares of the company are up more than 50% for the year. Shares of Roku rose more than 2% after market open. Analysts, on average, have given Roku a "hold" rating, with an average price target of $84.43. To Cathie Wood of Ark Invest, the dip presented an opportunity to snap up more shares in one of her firm's favorite stocks. Ark's flagship Innovation ETF picked up 104,393 shares of Roku Wednesday, a purchase worth around $6.5 million. This brings the fund's total Roku holding up to 7.62% of the fund, worth just shy of $500 million. The company will announce its third-quarter results Nov. 1.

*Here is how Delta's loyalty program will look like after traveler revolt*

Customer outcry can be a powerful thing and, after a month of fallout after announcing changes that would make it more difficult to earn loyalty status and cracking down on lounge access, Delta Air Lines (DAL) - Get Free Report sent out an email detailing how it would scale back the unpopular decision. “I have read hundreds of your emails, and what's been most clear to me is how much you love Delta and the disappointment many of you felt by the significance of the changes,” CEO Ed Bastian said in an Oct. 18 email sent to SkyClub members. At a Sept. 28 meeting at the Atlanta Rotary Club, Bastian admitted that the airline "probably went too far" in pushing forth the changes it announced at the start of the month.Related: Another airline hits back against Delta's rewards program changes by promising better option The initial plan was to cap lounge visits for those with access to at most 10 a year and scrap waivers that allowed passengers to earn status by spending $25,000 on eligible credit cards. Instead, the tiers of SkyClub status would be earned by spending a respective $6,000, $12,000, $18,000 and $35,000 directly with the airline. Let's try this again: These are the scaled-back changes for Delta's SkyClub members Those have now been lowered to $5,000 Medallion Qualifying Dollars (MQDs) for Silver, $10,000 for Gold, $18,000 for Platinum and $28,000 for Diamond. But the core principle of needing to spend with the airline instead of on qualifying credit cards remains the same. More Travel:A new travel term is taking over the internet (and reaching airlines and hotels)The 10 best airline stocks to buy nowAirlines see a new kind of traveler at the front of the plane Lounge passes have been raised from 10 to 15 a year for Delta SkyMiles® Reserve cardholders and from 6 to 10 for those with the American Express (AXP) - Get Free Report Platinum card but the decision to introduce caps remains unchanged. "These updated status metrics are, at most, 20% lower than the ones announced last month," writes Zach Griff of travel website The Points Guy. "Relative to this year's levels, the revised thresholds are still between 25% and 67% higher — one of the most significant jumps we've seen from an airline in recent history. [...] As such, I suspect that some Delta flyers will still be pretty upset with these revised thresholds."Here is why most travelers still feel tricked by Delta's SkyClub rules "Don’t try to fool us by saying 'lowered' compared to the outrageous 6k, 12k, 18k, 35k MQDs," traveler Leslie Chang wrote underneath one of the airline's recent Instagram (META) - Get Free Report posts. "5k, 10k, 15k, 28k is way too much still." As frustration with Delta threatens to spill over, many competitors have been seeing opportunity among customers who feel like they have been giving Delta their business only to have the rug swept out from under them. JetBlue (JBLU) - Get Free Report and Alaska Airlines (ALK) - Get Free Report both offered to match the status frequent flyers had with Delta at their own airline while Southwest Airlines (LUV) - Get Free Report announced that it was bringing down the number of flights necessary to earn status with its Rapid Rewards program with a quip about how they were "making it easier" to earn status while other airlines are "making it harder." Alaska Airlines also took a dig at Delta earlier this fall by saying that "loyalty is about more than just revenue."

*A common expensive mishap will cost Tesla owners more, says report*

Whether one is looking for a Model 3, or a Model Y, the recent price cuts to Tesla’s least expensive models might prove to be enticing to buyers, but an expensive reality of ownership might sour such a bargain. Data from Mitchell, a provider of collision repair management software, reveals that average repair costs for a Tesla (TSLA) - Get Free Report are significantly higher than not only gas and diesel powered cars, but other EVs. Related: Here's why Tesla's third-quarter earnings were a 'mini disaster' As per their data, in the third quarter of this year, average repair costs for a Tesla was $5,552, $4,474 for non-Tesla electric cars and $4,205 for traditional engine cars. Doing the math, repairing a Tesla after a crash costs $1,347 more than a traditional gas or diesel car, while other brands were just $269 higher. View the original article to see embedded media. Tesla’s technology and safety features may put them at the forefront of automotive technology, but all the sensors and cameras that Elon Musk’s machines use for said features makes post-crash repairs very expensive. Ryan Mandell, the director of claims performance for auto physical damage at Mitchell said that the complications of new technology play a role when these vehicles are involved in a collision. "You could have a left-front corner impact that somehow has disrupted your right rear lane-departure warning sensor," Mandell said. "Maybe that part needs to be replaced, maybe it needs to be recalibrated." According to a report by MarketWatch, Tesla drivers pay significantly higher for insurance than other drivers. Using data from Quadrant Information Services, they found that the annual cost of full coverage insurance on a 2023 Tesla Model for a 35-year-old driver with good credit and a clean license is $4,762, more than double the average annual cost of $2,008. More Business of EVs:A full list of EVs and hybrids that qualify for federal tax creditsHere’s why EV experts are flaming Joe Biden’s car policyThe EV industry is facing an unusual new problem Mandell also stated that new vehicles in general are being transformed with new parts, as well as parts being made out of more advanced materials, which require higher-skilled technicians and more labor hours in the shop. "When you look at the average number of parts being replaced, it's increasing every year. You look at the frequency of calibration work — that's increasing by the day. You look at the number of parts that are other than mild steel, that increases continually," he said. "All of these trends are leading us toward more expensive collision repair." Data from Mitchell also showed that repair costs for EVs as a whole have dropped since the same time in 2022. The average repair cost of an EV as of recent is $5,155, compared to $6,270 about a year ago. The increase of sales of EVs by mainstream brands, as well as price cuts to Tesla vehicles may have played a role in the drop.
