1 year agoIt’s half way up a line at the start of the graph, and the end of the graph is at 8 lines tall, so by my math I’d say it looks like 16x vs roughly the actual ~4x improvement.
*Can’t afford to buy a $48K car
There are still sedans out there that can be gotten for a lot less, people have really been over spending on these large SUVs to make the average price $48K. Get a ~$30K sedan instead, you can get a Honda Civic for under $30K or a number of other cars.
Now obviously that’s still out of reach for a ton of people, but it just seems weird to say “can’t afford a new car” and then picking something for $48K.
