"Im financially irresponsible and now Im dumping that debt onto you! PLEASE. I NEED YOUR CHARITY." Should be the blanket description for all of these. In a perfect world, facebook should be allowed in this case to intervene with all the sellers editing attempts and only post that message.
Your comment about people in apartments having new car payments is spot on. I drive by apartments and see cars I could not afford, I own a house instead. Oh, and they pay more for rent on their one-bedroom apartment than my house payment. Just paying to stay poor.
Even if they own a house, they still own a expensive vehicle. I've seen people living in $80k homes while having payments on $120k worth of cars. And people love 72 month financing so they're definitely paying a lot of interest
Somr people like houses and some like cars, me personally I couldn't give a shit about a big fancy house unless It was given to me for free or I have 6 kids to feed. 12 hours of my day. I'm at work, including 1 of those hours driving to and from work. I've driven by a lot of fancy houses but the whole family owns and lives off of one car; old Toyota prius or a bummed out honda accord, not my type of life choices.
Those markup prices were insane 2020-2022. NPC buyers blindly pay monthly payments until they try to rollover onto a new car and can't. I partially blame the banks for approving everything
My ex did that. She now has a $1200/month car payment on a subie with 150k miles. She calls it "being savvy." Of course, this is the same genius that bought a $2500 4runner on CL, and put $9k into painting and detailing it. It blew a HG the next month.
"You want take over payment!?!?" Thank God there's still one group that can take a joke without starting an online petition to ban someone from the entire Internet.
Best decision I ever made in my life was getting rid of my financed 2021 Mustang GT. Bought a NB Miata and a 95 honda accord with cash. Not even payment wise but insurance wise. Both of the older cars are literally 1/4th of the price than the one Mustang per month. Was able to buy a house aswell after dropping the Mustang.
Here’s the way it works: 1-get good paying job and save. 2-buy a house and keep working, save more. 3-once you have enough in savings to pay your bills for 3-6 months, save a little more and get that project car
@@RobertShane83 I fluctuate between 3 and 4 depending on the situation. Costs go up or unexpected expenses, sell the project car and save for another one
$32,000 for a daily driver that's nearly a decade old is _insane._ Especially a Mustang. Save yourself 20 grand and get an NC Miata. You can have a lot of fun on only four cylinders. It'll be cheaper to own and maintain, and you won't have to carry the stigma of being a Mustang owner. The coolest thing about owning a slow manual car is banging out 1-2-3 and getting deep into 4th gear and still being under 100 miles an hour.
I drive a 2003 Pontiac Vibe and a 1995 F250 7.3L. I own TWO HOUSES. I'm 35 years old. You guys are completely right about the "this is why you don't own houses" bit. SPOT ON.
I paid cash for every vehicle I've ever owned, and somehow ended up with 4 houses before turning 30 after moving out at 16 with nothing. Get a good job, a hobby that doubles as a side hustle, and a high interest savings account. Wait for interest rates to drop, then deploy that capital
So, from a Marine that was stationed at Pendleton for 10 years, that Marines M3, I can all but guarantee that USAA had nothing to do with that. That’s got “buy here pay here” written all over it. 🤣
Spot on w “is this why Gen Z can’t afford a house” At my job everytime a new young guy started, somewhere around $15-$18, within 2 months they would be pulling in with a brand new car/truck
We used to be a country of poor people, but have somehow found a jackhammer to dig past rock bottom. Having zero debt and zero dollars makes you a king among indentured servants
I refuse to pay more than 6 grand for a car i can build one for that lol. The car i drive now is a beater but it gets me to work everyday i paid 4000 dollars for it five years ago i can proudly say im 45 and ive never been in debt
The issue with most people who sell their own stuff, is that they usually vastly overestimate how much someone is willing to pay for it aka its real market value. Also who pays 42K for a Maverick, its not even a real truck, its a pickup, but not a truck. Pickup Truck are 2 different words and they do not necessarily need to go together.
My younger brother tried to press me about my car. It’s a 2016 TTS in Vegas Yellow. He asked if I modded it yet. I told him no, I’ve had it for 4 months and make payments on it. The farthest I would go is wheels and tires until it’s payed off. It has plenty for a daily driver/ fun car.
I deliver Uber Eats on an Army base. You should see all the brand new (or next to it) F-150, Ram, Hellcats, etc. parked in the lots of the...barracks where they don't even have to pay rent! And there's a cubic shit ton of buy here pay here Military Welcome E Deuce and above lots clustered outside the base. It's kinda sad...
Seriously yes! Don't drive your not-really-fancy MB to your shitty apt! I bought a house last year and I'd just passed 6 years of ownership on the daily that I bought for cash. Arguably that's my down payment (number of months since October 2017 times the average monthly car payment in America). After leasing a car as one of the first things I did when I had my first after-college job---never again. Cars are made to be paid for in cash or financed through your local bank. F Puchi. "I want to complain about this for no reason"
Proudly racist huh? If you're gonna pretend to use "facts" to justify your racism you have to stay up-to-date on current events. South Korea passed a bill to ban eating of dog meat months ago. And if you respond that "oh I'm sure people follow the law," I'm going to point out that dogs in Korea are probably safer than American kids in school so stfu.
Unfortunately my gx470 has factory nav and the options to convert the head unit to anything else is not easy. Hvac controls are only on the screen which is a terrible design choice for any vehicle. The parts needed to convert to actual knobs is near impossible to find or stupid expensive. Stuck using my phone.
@@XVXC-M8 you don't know them well then, if you don't have a complete and proper 100% service record history you're about to dump $10,000 min into that car fixing it and getting it right, no lie.
5:35 thats not even a Mitsubishi its a Nissan with slightly different plastic and the same horrible CVT. Mitsubishi doesn't sell a car they engineered in the US once the Mirages are all gone
