    If the cost was in the 9k range I’d agree, as after amortizing out my current car which I paid 21k for 9 years ago is about right. I’d like to replace my truck, but I’ve had that for 15 years and I paid 10k so I suppose that is an unreasonable ask. (I need a truck about 2x/year and after looking at the fine print it turns out I cannot rent a truck - I can rent a truck shaped car, but as soon as I use it as a truck I violated the contract)

      Well after 3 years you’ll still be able to sell it for some amount of money. Having spent 9k might be right on the mark. China is just turning cars into what they did with everything else. Making it disposable e-waste in waiting as soon as you get it.
