In 1990 I bought a brand new F-150 for $10k or so. Now $10k will get you a pretty good USED vehicle.... Gee, I wonder why the prices have gone up so much.... And I wonder why the auto makers are struggling....

Maybe it’s all the mandates? Nah, couldn’t be....

Oh, and isn’t it all in the name of safety? So why do people who don’t have boat loads of cash have to drive “less safe” beaters? Don’t these mandates make things less safe for the poor?

Heck my first new Chevy was $2300 and McDonalds burgers were 15 cents, LOL.
