I’m I just old and cranky and think it doesn’t make a difference in how we decide? How we do it now, the larger the number the better, and the European way the smaller the number is better. Math is math no matter how to do it.

If it was an even playing field.. fine.. but the problem is that the dealers are complicit and or directly involved and also act as king-makers. Auto-makers advertise pricing which people rely on and in no way make it clear that dealers own the product and can charge what they want. In any other product this wouldn’t…

Life expectancy is going down and poverty is going up. That system no longer works for the people. 

The headlights are the issue? I always assumed it was because you have a blind spot for roughly 30' in front of your vehicle.

We have national banks that have branches literally all over the country. Open an account at one, deposit your cash. Do the deal at the branch near your destination, get cash as needed. Carrying that much cash is moronic for MANY reasons, and frankly the risk of CAF is low among them.
