JFC. You people just can’t help yourselves, huh?  Let’s try some facts:

“virtue signaling”

tRump is a nazi loving POS. Nothing he says about cars or anything else really matters. FUCK him and his idiot deplorables.

There are two options:

Insane tax policies and government subsidizing of the oil industry has lead us to these truck absurdities.

I'm still bummed about the discontuation of the Mazda5.  It was the right sized vehicle for family hauling with near minivan space in a compact car footprint. Also the 2010-2018 was the only production car with Mazda's Nagare design language.  A Skyactiv engine and 6 speed automatic would have addressed the horsepower…

My parents ask me this all the time and why I keep up with my 2010 Odyssey that is paid off. It runs, it works, and gets me from A-B without a hassle. Yea I have to toss some new ignition coils or change the power steering pump but shit that cost me like 200 dollars. They pay 800+ monthly per car and still have the…

Cars are out of control. Just a few years ago, people who make my current income would be in the Lexus GX / BMW 5Series / etc. level of car according to the rule of thumb about payment vs. income.

We are heading towards a future where all automobiles are the size and price of a Yukon Denali and I hate it.

Comment section is just a bunch of keyboard warriors making “I” statements and criticizing young people. It makes me feel sad to read the tone on here when this article is about the situation young people find themselves in. Zero sympathy for the market factors at play that have led to this. Just a bunch of people…

A similar type of car in terms of age, condition, type, etc. is about $12,000 today.

Yeah, it is almost like wage growth has stagnated and the guarantee of a yearly raise and bonus that boomers grew up with dried up after their 40 years in the workforce.

Oh, it’s not by dollar amount, it’s measured by take-home pay. Well the reason is obvious, it’s that Gen Z and Millennials, and to a lesser extend Gen X, get paid absolute garbage compared to Boomers who pulled up the ladder behind them, but still need to buy cars.

I don’t see this as financial illiteracy so much as just that younger people tend to make less money and cars are more expensive now than ever.

If I was making the average used car payment on a new car I’d feel like I was splurging beyond reason.

I turo'd a Nissan Kicks in Hawaii and I can tell you that for a cheap, economy car the kicks is OUTSTANDING. Not every car is going to be a Ferrari. The luggage compartment is cavernous, great Carplay integration with a nice basic sound system, adequate power for an economy car... it made me think about buying one for…

If Honda were to bring out an Element EV, I think that’d sell like hotcakes.  At least around here.  In fact - it’s really an un-developed sector on the whole:  EV Adventure vehicles.  Not SUVs, per se.  Not off-roaders.  But something practical and roomy, with decent range and the ability to throw all manner of dirty…
