Which will be marked the fukk up like you've been told about 5 times. And, for the dozenth time with you on this topic across multiple threads, everyone is not going buy the entry level economy car.


Well don't fukkn complain about payments then. It cost to be the boss.
nikkas REALLY think they'll get a 2023 BMW 3 series with a $300 note.:laff::laff::laff::laff::laff:

I can tell there's a lot of :flabbynsick: posting

The average price for a used car has actually doubled in the past 10 years.

This is not all just people being reckless with finances or trying to impress

There's also the folks that got their cars wrecked, broke down or stolen and they out here stuck trying to find something. They stuck between over priced new and used cars, and a lot of these new cars are still on backorder with a 4-6 month waitlist. :francis:

So old people not out here in the car market now? :pachaha: I bought my son a car 2 years ago and it wasn't even $6k.. Still running strong.
the market has changed significantly is my point. People acting like these are still the days of a $300/mo 4-year loan for a reliable car. Those days are over. Takes two seconds to google this

If the average price for new/used car has doubled in the past 10 years, then obviously the monthly car payment would double too

add in chip shortages in the last two years reducing the inventory that's available. there's waiting lists even. add in Fed interest rate hikes making financing more expensive than it was in the past too.

People could make better choices financially of course, but there's much bigger forces at play here.

Thats f*cked up for y'all breh.. I live in the 3rd largest city in the country and I see a ton of cars listed well under $50k and with payments as low as $400 a month.. And if I can see this findings, then im sure the 2 million other residents of this city can too.

While you cling hard to what you read, im living a life that don't have me listed within the article you read. And I bought a car within the time period you quoted.. And im far from special. Y'all need to quantify the stuff you read.

Shiii aint nothin :flabbynsick: but your opinions
I got a new 2021 Mazda (something i aint even want forreal but its grown on me :ehh:)
And I only pay 3 sum. Could I have gotten a truck with a g payment yea but I said that's stupid and found something more affordable and made sense.
Like dude in the story paid a whole 25gs over what he wanted spend and ended up with a thousand dollar payment cause he HAAAAD to have that mustang. He aint got a right to complain cause there are cheaper cars out there that he could have gone for. Folks like that are true suckas they believe in that dream car dream house dream wedding and they always the types that overpay and be fukked up financially in they real life. PCP words of wisdom:If they can sell you a dream, they can sell you anything for more than you can afford :ufdup:

They'll say this is "bootstrap" talk. Even though you said you got the cheaper car.

Microwave era.

They don’t want to stack their bread and walk into the dealer with a proper down payment. They want it now.

I have coworkers who do shyt like this and here’s how they look at it: It’s only one paycheck. Another check goes to the house, another check goes here, another check goes there. Every month.
