No but really, unless you’re driving an American car getting 15mpg, there hasn’t really been any improvements in combustion cars that warrant buying a new one imho. Modern cars on average get worse gas mileage than my car, it’s now more expensive instead of less to get a manual, the “infotainment” systems are a plague on cars, honestly should be law that all controls are on physical dials and switches… It’s just a shit show.
If I went hybrid I’d get 10-15mpg more, but $40k for 10mpg is not worth it lmao, it would take me twenty years to save half that in gas, and plug in electrics are really only for the semi-wealthy who can drop thousands of dollars on the home they own (cause no landlord gonna do it) to install a charger. So for me, there’s really no reason to get a new car anytime soon.
If they brought back the S10 and made it get 40mpg I might change my mind, I do miss having a truck, but modern ones are just gaudy shit for wannabe country boys.
There’s calculators to find that out. At 3% for 4 years on $40,000 it would be about $2,500.
Yeesh, I could buy a lot of drugs for $2,500 xD
