Regardless of how expensive cars have become, people shouldn't be driving around in 60k cars when they make 45k
Look at the amount of 50k+ cars around BR, not even considering the number of soccer mom Yukons/Tahoes. Compare that to the average income. Absurd.
Most people could get by with a cheaper sedan but they're not "cool" enough

I don’t think many people making $45K are driving $60K cars…source?
Flip the question…when would it be appropriate for someone to own a $60K car?
I get that this board is full of “a car gets you from A to B and nothing more” but the reality is most people enjoy the experience of a nicer, newer car…hence the behaviors described.
Americans are horrible with money so I’m not trying to give an “out” but it doesn’t take all cash or a $250K+ salary to own a luxury vehicle either.
