My dad had a 74 Pontiac Grand Ville he bought at an estate sale several years ago and the invoice wasn’t much higher than what you posted. The previous owner kept good records.

Great car.

I always get a kick out of scam added features car dealers charge for.

“Seats. -$4200”
“Steering wheel. - $5090”
“Windshield. - $6700”
“Customer Satisfaction Happy Fee. - $6590”

OK ...

https://www.bls.gov/data/inflation_calculator.htm

That $4031.40 works out to $42,131.51 today.

For that, you get a car with better gas mileage, seat belts, and a body designed to absorb impact. Among other features that you might, or might not, actually care about. Also, it will give you much more than 100,000 miles of use.

If you’re “mad”, be “mad” at the creeps that run a monetary system designed to deliberately devalue the currency.

My first new car was a 1970 Ford Maveric. 302 engine. Grabber package. $2,300.
Now I drive a 96 Dodge, 3/4 ton, 2018 JEEP and 2007 Nitro. All paid for of course.
