I found 3/4ths of a Silverado for you! You sure your check won’t buy it this year?

There’s also the profit sharing election tool.

What did you do with that this year vs. last year?

Pick up trucks have definitely gone up in price. They’re ridiculous now.

Absolutely! There's a reason why Ford is pretty much abandoning sedans in this country (though I think that's short sighted). Trucks are huge profit centers.

It's also why both trucks I have owned over the years I bought used.

I can’t wait to see what they do with the new Bronco. I hope it’s got two doors, a removable top, and it’s big and heavy. Hope they don’t screw it up somehow.

I suspect next years check will be much lower.

Why do you suspect that? Earnings are supposed to be higher year over year.......

Are you comparing gross v gross, rather than net v net?

Look at your last 2018 paycheck, add pilot advance and flight pay together and multiply by 14%. It should be close to that number.

Have pickup trucks increased in price?

Did you change your 401k allocation percentage from last year?

Did you contribute more to an HSA compared to last year?

Did you perhaps turn 50 and were eligible for "catch up" 401k contributions?

All these and many more need to be taken into account when figuring out why your actual deposited amount was what it was.

No to all of the above.
