Are people who bought Teslas, some probably for laudable climate ends, now disgusted to drive their car every day? Or are people still buying them and it’s not yet hit home where their dollars are going…or other? Are people selling them due to political reasons now?
People are going to buy new cars regardless. A used car market doesn’t make sense without someone buying new cars because eventually you run out of used cars. People are voting with their dollar for something more economical and efficient. Sure, you can call them out for still buying new, but buying used is further incentivizes people to buy new cars knowing the resale value will offset the expense. We’re all stuck paying into new car production.
We might be getting out of the civic slump. Late 00s civics were not the cars to get. Maybe 2014 is out of the bad gneeration. If you picture a 1994 civic when I say “10 year old civic” I have some bad, bad news. A 2nd gen prius is a good buy. The EV market has cut into the prius used market and gas prices are low again so prices are down. Battery replacement isn’t atrocious.
