    I can’t speak for the neighborhoods you hang out in but the USA car bubble is fucking insane right now.

    People making $26 an hour in SoCal (where rent is $2400) regularly buy $70,000 trucks ($150,000 if you count interest), mustang GTs, top-trim/model Wranglers, GLAs. Spending >$50k on a car is normal for the working class when they don’t even own homes yet.

    Complete insanity. I used to think the ‘collapse’ folks were full of shit. Turns out they were just early.

      🤷‍♂️, idk their overspending doesn’t hurt me. I see more people buying reasonable-ish cars and trucks.
