Oh, the suffering.
I wonder how many of those families ditching their brand new cars bought one with no money down, believing they would not return to America so they didn’t care about trashing their credit score when they dumped their brand new purchase to be reposessed.
Decades ago, I had a Syrian co-worker who returned to Syria with his wife. For the next 2 years, we got a long parade of incessant calls from all the various collection agencies trying to reach him. Right before he left for Syria, he made dozens of purchases of high end clothes and jewelry and things knowing he would never return and they would never be able to collect. He just completely stole from those companies and did so pre-meditatedly.
Those Arabs are real horse-traders and con-men. They see a safe, easy opportunity to rip you off to enrich themselves and they will do it.
Shameless and no morals.
Rental cars?
