16k for that Buick Encore with 122k miles is criminal.

25% interest is robbery. Let'em rot.

I may be broke. But I don't have any debt

This is where the most vulnerable people will overpay for terrible cars

People are learning to maintain their old cars that are paid off.   New cars are garbage anyways.

$14,595 FOR A 2014 Jeep Patriot Latitude? That should be around $5-6k MAX.

Nothing says I'm a Deadbeat more than walking into a Drive Time Sales office.😅

the ads on the radio pushing NINETY MONTH loans....ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME????

A few moments later... you trade that car in and roll a bunch of negative equity into an even bigger loan you still can't afford.

We can’t even afford to eat at McDonald’s never mind a car payment. I’m so glad my truck and Jeep are paid off.

Using a Dodge Hornet as an example of a bad investment is very deserved.

Small dealer here. These operations are why used cars are so expensive right now. The reps from these big money buy-here-pay-here dealers show up to the auction and bid up all the late model cars to retail levels. Reason being they are literally able to sell it for 2x fair retail.

America is a car loving country. Gotta have the newest, coolest chock full of electronic goodness! Then it fails a month later. I'll stick to my 2004, 'ol reliable.

This is your friendly reminder to spend the $5-12K on that transmission over a 35k+ car purchase

Half of the cars are junks.

25% interest rate is insane! Thats more than what the stock market goes up every year. These people are making a killing

I remember Paul Harvey back in the 90's saying on his show, "A used Honda vs a new BMW at age 25 is approximately $500,000 at retirement age"  I lived by that and now I'm retired and living quite well.  Way too many folks living beyond their means just to try to impress.  Sad but true.

I recall a Cheech and Chong skit from the 70's.  Something  on late night TV about a used car dealer ad.  "Only fifty dollars down..fifty dollars a month...for fifty years!   Looks as if we are approaching that .

I seen a buy here pay here dealership in Arizona selling a 2003 Dodge Durango with 72,000 miles for almost $11,000. It is a big-time problem here in the car market.

A fool and their money are soon parted.  Sometimes that is the only way they learn how things work in the real world.
