How did Peloton convince people to spend $20 a month to use their $2500 treadmill

[Pazzy]

its mad annoying. All our neighbors peeped it. We got a model x too

I can see that. You would think someone had a million dollars with the way peleton made it's installation truck look. Like they couldn't be discreet or had to make a statement like "you brought a peloton. Let the whole world". Even the commercials make it look like some classist type of shyt. It sends the wrong message. Honestly, if I brought a peloton, I would ask them to show up at night.

Broke Coli knee grows always have to TRY to make people feel bad about spending money because they can’t .

Because America is shyt. Subscriptions models are coming for everything.

You have to pay Toyota $8 a month to use the remote start feature that you already paid for when bought the car.

It been like that for years with Toyota and Lexus. Why are people just now cryin about it on this forum. And it’s mainly for the remote start feature in the phone app. Yes I agree you should be able to use the key fob remote start free. The key fob has terrible range though. It would be useless. You might as well be in the car and start it.

same way when you buy a 50k truck you have to pay $20 a month for Sirius


(dealing with that right now but imma cut it off)

I’ve had that Sirius in my car for 6 years. And since the first trial ended I threaten to cancel and the give me a new rate every single time. Currently paying $6 a month. Learn how to negotiate sir. Everything is negotiable. Lol

If you have Chase credit card the Peloton fees are free every month.

My thing is I can build a whole damn home gym for $2500. Cardio machines, free or mechanical weights, punching bags, etc for that price. I think it’s more of the fact that people don’t actually know the value of things they buy.

Maybe I shouldn’t be so technical, but a couple motors, pulleys, belts, digitizers, and plastic housing dont cost anywhere near $1000, let alone $2500. People are out here paying for brand names and hype nowadays.

Who has time to learn, and do that...the time it takes to learn and do that...some people earn wayyy more than $2500

Coli logic: 'why buy a Lambo when you can just build one yourself

All just to avoid a simple gym

That’s a big thing. Especially with COVID. People are willing to pay for safety and convenience. I’m sure there are folk out there who think paying for a gym membership is retarded when you can work out for free. Everyone needs their own motivation to woek out. If this is what helps them then do be it.

would consider one if I didn’t have to pay for the membership. Too much pocket watching. If folk have the money who cares?

I had to search what you were talking about
this car?

nikkas is definitely stunting

There are options out there. If you already have a mountain or road bike you can get a indoor trainer. I had one, but there's too many open moving parts, and I have a curious cat.

Facts...cats here don't realize time is money and their personal views are not applicable to everyone else...there's levels!

That's the van. I saw their installation truck twice when I was driving around. It was outside some big houses too with two, three cars in the driveway too. I'm like okay... they really making an event over this shyt. You think that shyt came with classes and an instructor inside on some "this is how you use peleton". I'm sure most people buy it thinking it will come set up and ready to use. Nobody got time to learn peleton. Most people attention spans are too short to learn anyway thanks to smart phones. Peleton supposed to be ready already. Let me find out peleton charging for classes or to use its programs.

Status symbol thing. Whatever they're calling young urban professionals now, it was a trend for em.

It’s still Yuppies.
