A new camper van in the US can easily cost 6 figures.

And a used one can easily be had for less than 15,000

I can't even get a used car with less than 100,000 miles for less than $15,000.

Uhh you're not looking hard enough. Hell there are pickup trucks for less than 15k with less than 100k miles.

Where I live used pickups are the worst, costing almost as much as buying new.

Yea that seems to have calmed down a bit recently though.

I bought a used car several years ago. I put 70k miles on it. It is now worth $4000 more than what I paid for it. This shit is ridiculous.

I once bought one for less than $1000... Granted it needed a lot of work to get roadworthy, but about another $2500 later, it had good tires and could drive without overheating, and more importantly, stop too. Girlfriend I had at the time made me give it up, I still resent her for it.
