    It seems really normalised in America to get a brand new car on a loan as soon as your existing one has run out. I’ve bought every car I’ve owned with cash and I’ve never struggled.

      I’m well over 200k on a car I bought in 2016 with 100k. Currently replacing the compressor because it decided to shit the bed during a heat wave. There’s no point in buying a new car, people just want new cars.
