A friend is looking at a new truck and the 1500s are on his radar.  Looking around a bit with him shows a lot of 2020s available with 10-20k on them, all about $11k under MSRP.  I'm usually looking at sports cars, so I'm a bit confused why there's so many "new" trucks available in this condition?

Is there anything wrong with them that makes people dump them in under a year?

 

Here's an example, but there's tons of them out there.

Check out a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT Double Cab 4WD - $33,979 on CarGurus at https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/share/279142503

Just being really ridiculously ugly?

Go directly to the Hertz, Enterprise, and Avis sites and I bet you can buy the same cheaper. 

 

My recent Hertz buying experience.

Probably also because new ones are $5-10k off msrp.
