The Trax and Ecosport were exactly what I had in mind.

I sincerely hope you are right. The signs are there, the RV capital of the world is on a down turn and crane rentals are going from a backlog of rentals to parking cranes. Those are the two red flags for me. 

As a millennial with kids and a mortgage, my life is a constant recession prep exercise.

“Recessions are hard to weather; doubly so if your company doesn’t sell anything cheap”.

25+ years is a pretty long time to be considered a trend...

He’s got blinker fluid!!!

That’s technically not a used car though. I work for the automaker you mention, and those are the cars I always buy as well. When we sell those, we count them as a new car sale.
