I never said it wasn't a shitty system. Just that 900 bucks over the course of 5 years is not an unfathomably amount of money to pay for something. I've spent more than 900 on a single car repair several times in my life. Unless they have been living in abject poverty I just don't see how they couldn't have paid it off by now. Median American income for a household is 80k. Yeah they aren't living in luxury but they can afford the occasional expense.
