Walked outside to see a fucker trying to jiggle my door and ran off when I confronted him. Shits worth $300 and has different color doors. Who’s chopping this shit up? They gotta be selling it to developing countries where they’re worth more. I suppose that’s why beat up cars are more valuable than high end ones because it’s more affordable overseas
There's more demand for stolen parts from old cars. Old cars need parts.
planned obsolescence makes the market for old parts do an inverted bell curve on a long enough timeline, it's pretty wild to see this in tech, but likely similar with cars nowadays
