It used to be a clutch job cost 500-600 bucks, now that same job with the same parts, and everything costs 1800 or more. Nothing about the job has changed, the labor is the same, the parts are the same, the only difference is the price went up 3-4 times for the same service. And this is the same everywhere, any value the USD had is quickly vanishing as common, standard items go from obscene price to clown world pricing. I wouldnt be surprised that gas goes up to 12$/gallon or more just to (((spite))) whatever is left of the economy

A strong dollar means that the US currency has risen to a level that is at or near historically high levels compared to other currencies. It means it can buy more of a foreign currency than before on the foreign exchange markets.

What you describe is inflation. Given the value of the dollar has risen this year, amid ~16% inflation, it is safe to say most other countries are experiencing more inflation than we are in the US, hence the apparent rise in the strength of the dollar.
