Sum 41 have no original members, like Derek Wibley has no orginal kidneys. Get it, cause he was a severe alcoholic and had renal failure?

This isn’t a “The Beach Boys featuring Mike Love” situation 

“he’s the only original member”...i mean, technically? But two of the other guys in the band have been there since before they made it big, so it’s not the lead singer + a bunch of ringers or anything.

2-3 year old cars to scoop up for 30-50% off MSRP”

I’m in a similar boat. Income just a tick over 300k, and was all over used. Then, I bought a grand Cherokee new in 2014. And I’ll drive it probably another dozen years until I give it to my currently 6 year old. Sure, paid a little bit more than a used one when I got it, but I also bought a lifetime unlimited mileage

Most couples making 250k a year each can afford that. Is that everyone in the US? No. But it’s not that rare either.

Huh? You are arguing that that eliminating affordable cars from the market is helping people with lower incomes. How?

Show me the math on that 30k in batteries.

- Shareholder primacy and continuing to vote specifically for quarterly profits via share buybacks and headcount reductions to ensure margin growth? Rich people did that.

It can easily make alot of sense depending on how you structure it and how you do things.

I bought new (partly because my last ride I drove until it was falling apart and I needed a car that week) but I specifically bought my car because it was on steep discount due to the Ford killing the Fiesta in America.

I’ve only got 30,000 on it after six+ years of ownership because I’m a light driver so I’ll

I’m sorry, in what world do you think low income people have achieved any measurable QoL improvements? I’ll wait.

Yeah, that whole line about him being the only original member is technically true, but it’s not a like anyone knows who the the original members are. There is currently only one guy who was part of the “All Killer, No Filler” line up that isn’t an active part of the band.

Might wanna rethink who’s been reamin’ your cornhole, champion. Sorry to be the one breaking it to you, but the libs ain’t handing out buckets of cash in the ‘hood.

Millionaires and billionaires are literally the people driving up the cost of the Camry.

I am not seeing 2-3 year old cars available for 30-50% off MSRP. I would be in the market for a minivan right now—that would make the most sense for my family. A two year old Sienna right now is basically still going for MSRP.  A new Sienna, as of a few months ago, goes for MSRP , but requires a payment to hold the

Yes.  But when wages are going up by 2% and inflation is 3% it’s less annoying then when wages are going up by 3% and inflation is running 6% or more.

I would argue that a new car has its place. The key is to not see it as an investment, but as a sunk cost.

I can’t think of any car I’d want to drive”

The rich got richer. Not the poor
