Used vehicles are barely going down in price.

How is the whole car market not collapsing in on itself?

People don't even get their engine oil changed let alone real maintenance; that's why the average vehicle lasts 100K miles now

Srs people are so retarded in 2023 they go 5,000 miles+ past their due dates

This.

I think a lot of student loancels have replaced their frozen student loans with a bigger car payment.

I really can't see how the student loan payments coming back online is going to end well.

You gotta be a total rtard to buy a new vehicle. Even if you just buy one that's 3-5 years old, you save a ton. People are buying new vehicles, they're financing them. I'm curious how many of these new vehicle "purchases" actually get fully paid off by the original buyer.

No way these are 15 year old models. These are 2021-2023 models. Houses where I am at are in the low 6 figures, but these are usually packed with tons of cars. Means multiple families living in one house.

I see tons of those new financed cars, high end audis, BMWs, mercedes in low income housing projects.

I hate to be excited to see what happens, but I am excited to see what happens.

So is this thread about being angry because you can’t afford a car or is it about being angry that other people justify their purchase but you can’t?

They're coming down, the ridiculous priced cars are not selling.

Bought a Taco with the frame rust issue for $2,100, Toyota bought it back for a little over 10 grand. TBH I wonder if I should have just kept it and kept putting chassis saver on the frame, LOVED that truck.

Agreed. The market will eventually correct itself.

I'm in a pinch because my Jeep likely has a head gasket issue and I need to travel a lot for work soon. Looking for a cheap runner while I sort out the Jeep and everything decent is getting sold within hours. Have 5k cash to jump on something. Can do a rental if needed but that takes away a big mileage payment to me.
Don't put that on me Ricky Bobby, don't you ever put that on me.

You can get warranty work done anywhere. The shop just bills the car company instead of you. It’s not “free”. It’s what the dealership does too.

Yup buying new is the way to go in this market, just be sure to price shop several dealers and have them beat each others quotes

Brb buy some hypothetical car new at 30k out the door with a 2.9% interest rate

Or buy a 2 year old version of that same car at 32k out the door with an 8% interest rate

Tough choice

Was going to look at/buy a car today, sold over the weekend. I told the seller I would come Monday when bank and DMV are open. Who has a bunch of cash sitting around to buy a car on the weekend? Dealers, that's who. I think there's a bunch of title hopping going on, I respect a good hustle but this is the second one that got sold out from under me in a week.

I learned my lesson, I have 3 copies of all the DMV forms and went to the bank and got cash so I can grab something as soon as it's listed, fuk the stealers, I'll play their game.
Don't put that on me Ricky Bobby, don't you ever put that on me.

Automobiles create too much pollution and allow for too much independence for the citizen. We can’t take them away from you, so we will make them unaffordable. Enjoy riding the bus.
