I'm not disagreeing with you but it seems naive to think that these companies would do anything but pass the cost along and keep paying execs way too much. Are we really under the assumption that car manufacturers are going to accept making less money?

Of course not- but they wont have a choice if people stop ponying up. As long as people keep enabling the high prices, they’ll keep charging them. The market will only support so much of this before someone comes with with a a more reasonable price and starts taking all the sales. Then it’ll be a race to the bottom again.
