I do see quite a bit prices across the board on parts plus fuel costs have went up 25%. Gas was under $2 and is now close to $2.75 or more in some location locally.
Same thing here - everything just hit a wall this past July in our area too. Shops are advertising unusually large discounts, flash sales,and the like, trying to drum up business... even mower blade sales , spark plugs and basic maintenance parts took a nosedive.. don't think it has so much to do with tariffs as something else I haven't figured out yet, cause retail prices haven't gone up from last year (they are actually more down) although a couple suppliers alerted that there may be unusually steep dealer cost increases this year , so may be worth considering stocking up more than usual on some stuff that may be most likely affected.
