It doesn't sound like you were going to buy a new car of any kind.

Their argument supposedly isn't that people aren't buying new cars, but that they're buying EVs at a slower rate.

    I'd buy an EV if I could afford one. Shit, when that transmission went out it would have been a good time to consider. But not with the price tags on everything and my 2004 wages.

    The average new car in 2023 was like $47,000, would you have bought a new car at all?

    Well, you see, you don't have to pay the entirety of the 47k right away. I have no idea why but they said I couldn't make payments on the transmission when I asked in person.
