  • More Than 1 in 5 New Car Buyers in the U.S. Are Taking Out Loans of 84 Months or Longer

  • Some people don’t have the time and money to drop $1,000 on a car that may not run for long and look for another car that’s more affordable.

    I’m just saying it’s really expensive to be poor.

  • New cars are more reliable than used and while it’s not a good idea to take loans when you’re broke, sometimes it’s the only option.

  • Admittedly I live in a high cost of living area, but yeah most Americans arent going to have $5k on hand.

  • Big picture here - just because you have a single used car for sale at $400 doesn’t make used cars in general affordable.

  • Those estimate signs are doing a lot of heavy lifting for you and you’re underestimating those costs.

    Maybe in bumfuck Mississippi those are regular prices, but I doubt it.

  • You gonna install all that for free?

    Batteries alone start at $200.

    You’re in south Mississippi. Enough said, dude. That’s why everything is cheap and you’re trying to sell a non-running car for $400.

  • A battery, ignition lock, and new key is not just $200

  • It's not just $400 - you listed out like $1,000 worth of repairs it needs before it can be driven.

  • People will quit giving you shit when you stop floundering around and wondering why people would buy a new car instead of a used car.

    Not THAT many people live in bumfuck Mississippi where things are dirt cheap out of your backyard. Not to mention you're selling a car for $400 and then saying it needs like $1,000 in repairs before it can be driven. Slimy.

  • Yeah....it's a 1995 and who knows how long it will last on the road before falling apart.

    Just because you have a single used car you're trying to sell for cheap doesn't make the entirety of used cars suddenly more affordable.

  • Used cars in my area START at $10k. I think you're bullshitting.

  • Have you seen the prices of used cars these days? Who has that kind of money in cash and isn't in the financial position to buy new?

  • Not everyone has several thousands in cash to buy a used car outright. Most Americans don't even have $1,000 in emergency savings.

  • Sometimes they’re cheaper than used cars now. Covid really fucked with used car prices.

  • Establishment Dems need to make way for younger and more progressive incumbents. It's clear that they will continue to cling to power until they die before doing so though.
