once the inflation happens it doesn't go back. currencies end by collapsing, not by recovering their value.

>>58399604
you know why

>>58399604
Because the wrong side won WW2

Heres your 1997 ford f150 with 200k miles on it bro. It will only run you 20 thousand dollars plus tip.

They want you to buy electric vehicles but they're so detached from what "poor" means that they have no idea 90% of human beings can't afford a tesla. they're pricing people out of everything without realizing its going to fuck them over too.

>>58399604
It's fucked. I just bought a brand-new car for the first time in my life because I REFUSE to pay these used car prices. Get fucked, resellers.

>>58399604

They're not. My gold I exchanged all my fiat shitcoins for still buys the same amount of car as it did 4 years ago.

My farmland, rental properties and etfs are all above that amount.

Oh, you bag held your country's currency?

>>58399768
i give you 2k and fuck off.

>>58399979
lol no it doesn't

>>58399809
>They want you to buy electric vehicles
That's the cover story and the stopgap measure.
The truth is that they don't want you owning vehicles, period.

>>58399751
This and "covid" was an excuse for a managed decline

>>58399604
>how in the fuck are used cars still priced at 400%
cash for clunkers and people being too cowardly to haggle with price gougers
there's still deals to be had, you just have to be smart and know what to look for

I also find it really disheartening how much of a premium is on toyotas. At this point I actually don't think it makes sense to buy a toyota, where it costs WAY more than an equivalent, in the used market.

>>58400305
>where it costs WAY more than an equivalent, in the used market.
the difference being they're cheaper to work on and the parts are everywhere and they're extremely reliable
what you pay up front you save over the life of the vehicle by a lot

>>58400312
I know what you're saying, but it seems like its priced in too much. Everyone knows toyota makes the best shit.

>>58399604
I’m way overdue for a new(used) car. I have 250k miles On a 19 year old Hyundai. I keep fixing it to keep it running but tired of constantly chasing problems with it. However when I got to look for a decent used car there’s nothing even remotely reasonable out there. Everything everyone is selling is get a he, or it’s so refocus expensive like >>58399768 that it actually makes more sense for me to keep repairing my Hyundai. I’m about to drop 4k on a rebuilt transmission to limp this thing along for another couple years.

>>58400330
what the fuck are you even looking at dude
you sound super defeatist and mopey about this wtf just buy a fucking truck

>>58399604
Just the new normal chud. Deal with it. With trump's nazi fascism you would be paying 40x

>>58400361
>On a 19 year old Hyundai
gross
>>58400361
>that it actually makes more sense for me to keep repairing my Hyundai
you're an actual moron

hyperinflated jewish debt money

>>58400377
Bitter used car salesman

>>58400363
fuck you im not gonna do it. I will never take it in the ass like this

>>58400414
you're already fucking yourself by throwing away money on a fucking hyndai dude
get a fucking clue
>>58400390
nah, I'm a 15-20 car a month guy bud
stay ignorant in your overpriced shitbox you don't know how to work on yourself though

>>58399604
You thought Covid caused used car prices to go up?

>>58399604
and why are filipinos the only ones still wearing face masks?

>Most people need a car in order to eat.
>Regulations make it nearly impossible to start competing car company.
>Jews can print infinite money to form monopolies
The sky is the limit for how far prices can be pushed. Why not price them at 300k, and have people take out 25 year mortgages on them? People will bitch and complain, but ultimately most will just have to suck it up.

>>58400305
My dad was a master toyota technician. Toyotas are worth every extra penny.
They are by far the most reliable vehicles ever made.
In the late 90s they actually had meetings discussing the fact that they made their cars TOO reliable to where they will get less sales and changed it a bit. 90s early 2000s Toyotas are bulletproof.
There's niggers in Africa driving 50 year old toyota trucks with 1 million miles and completely Jerry rigged handmade parts.
The other cars are complete garbage in comparison.

I bought an old toyota 4runner in like 2015 for 3k and have only done basic maintenence, it has almost 300k miles now and always starts. The other cars blow up at 100k miles perfectly timed to when the warranty expires

>>58400361
Im in the same boat brother. Gonna get my power steering fixed in my piece of shit. Thinking I will start just knocking on doors when I see a vehicle I like and making offers randomly like that.

>>58400464
because they're all nurses you fucking retard lol

Suck it up wagie!

>>58400504
>bought an old toyota 4runner in like 2015 for 3k and have only done basic maintenence, it has almost 300k miles now and always starts. The other cars blow up at 100k miles perfectly timed to when the warranty expires
yota chads we can't stop winning

>>58400504
its so fucked how you could sell it for easily 2x what you paid for it now. This is the only time in history any non mechanic ever made gains on a vehicle that wasnt a collectors item.

>>58400508
My mechanic buddy said they are seeing an increase in people fixing major problems in older cars vs junking them and buying something else. We’re not the only ones holding onto our junk cars

>>58400536
>This is the only time in history any non mechanic ever made gains on a vehicle that wasnt a collectors item.
that's not true at all
you just don't know shit about cars, you hyundai driving simp

>>58400542
there's a big difference between fixing quality vehicles that will last a lifetime vs pissing away money on a fucking cardboard-tier south korean shitbox

>>58400547
Youre a retard who keeps confusing who you are talking to and doesnt understand the concept of depreciation. Kill yourself

>>58400559
you all sound the same to me
you charismaless try hard redditor

>>58400555
>>58400547
>>58400430
>>58400377
Imagine being this butt hurt because some random guy on the internet decides to repair their Hyundai instead of buy something else

>>58399604
need one right now as well anon kun prices are ghey

>>58399604
Supply chain was thoroughly destroyed during COVID. It's going to take years to fix everything.

>>58400585
I'm literally trying to help him out by giving him hard truths about his situation
throwing money at a hyundai is like setting it on fire, he will get zero return on the investment and the shitbox is never going to stop giving him problems
he'd be better off scraping it and yoloiing that money on a bank loan to get a 5K corolla or 80's pickup
you guys all sound like 18 year old retards who dream of driving a tesla or something
grow the fuck up or stay poor, not my problem

>>58400606
>not fixing your car to instead buy a pickup built in the 1980s

lol I also don't like the south koreans but come on

A lot of these idiots showing screen shots of their loan amounts on facebook marketplace as if we are supposed to give a fuck

>>58399893
The problem is the resellers and the idiots that buy from them. Blue book value is fair but you’d be very lucky to find blue book prices. It will be sold in an hour

>>58399604
the money they printed isn't going away anon, that's not how inflation works

>>58399604
Because car salesmen, like landlords, are the scum of the earth

my friend bought a 2022 tesla 3 long range for 17k with a 4k tax credit coming. 65k miles on it, did he fuck up, are teslas just shitboxes

>he thinks covid was PLANNED to be a transitory event we'd recover from
covid is why we are in this economic crisis in the first place lol that was the whole point. everyone go to your home pastures like good farm animals and sit while we ruin things for the next two decades just to make it extra hard for anyone to get power (but us). 1intro and solana, man, either make it this time or get absolutely, unequivocally fucked, im warning you.

>>58399979
no it doesnt you retard

>>58399604
>Its been like 4 years since covid
I still feel like it was a couple of months ago: a college classmate even died, and I had to start with crypto because I couldn't work from home, now I can laugh about everything and feel relieved to still have my agrs bag, but it was horrible

>>58399604
>make 20k with shitcoins
>get excited thinking i will finally be able to buy a tuned corolla
>full tuned corolla is sitting at 52k
this market can go fuck itself im saving this money to buy gravity labs tokens when it releases, i'll buy a fucking tesla with the profit instead of this broken ass middle class wagecuck car i didn't even like anyway
