    Honestly. You have to be on top of all these things like:

    Car quality

    Good deals

    Potential recalls

    Attempts at scams

    Potential insurance coverage

    Repair costs

    Time it takes for maintenance

    Fuel efficiency

    The likelihood of your car being targeted for theft (happened to me ugh)

    And that's before you even get behind the wheel.

    This whole hyper individualism thing is all for a stupid infrastructure that could be fixed with trains.

      I remember reading an article long ago about car salesmen and was shocked at the story of a family that came in with their old clunker and left with a new car a few hours later. The idea that people would just make a major purchase like that was deeply unsettling. You didn't even read Consumer Reports on that model!!@#$% Madness!@!!*!!(((!!!!

        I helped a friend buy a car recently. She ended up taking a couple trips to shop around for options, but I was proud of her for that.
