For a mere $66 per day you can provide food for rich families living in metropolitan areas. That's less than some of you hogs spend on Patreon and onlyfans.

The way this acts like getting a new expensive enormous luxury suv is somehow being thrifty is hilarious. And how tf do you spend that much on food every day if you don't eat out daily?
Nothing "regular" about that much food delivery. Then again as a delivery guy, I've also dealt with some very working class folks that ordered like 4 times a week.
Guess it's a bit different when you're getting the cheapest thing on the menu and tipping $2.
Probably near daily Uber eats lol.

Toyotas used to be good like 20 years ago. They have followed most of the rest of the industry in adopting the transmission killswitch method of limiting their vehicles lifespan, although they are taking longer to transition to it.

Technology has advanced enough that they can make transmissions last 80-100k without any maintenance. So they don't support maintaince procedures anymore. Transmissions no longer have any maintenance schedules listed in the manual, they no longer have dipsticks or drain ports. Just a fill port they use to add the fluid at the factory, which isn't intended to be used for servicing.
As a result, these new transmissions break down at around 120-150k. The expected maintaince procedure is to just buy a new one when it breaks. Which is even more expensive than normal because of these new technologies. On top of that, modern transmissions often literally lack interchangable parts because you aren't expected to repair them, just buy a whole new transmission if they break. The parts in different units only fit right in the unit they came with, and have to be matched from transmission to transmission.
Not all vehicles and not all manufacturers have moved to this yet, but nearly all of them are headed that way.

So what do I buy if I want something that is repairable?
I’ve never had a car but life keeps making it apparent that I need one.
A lot of new safety regulations kicked in in 2004, so the vast majority of cars not designed to break had 2003 as their last model year. Unfortunately cars that old need more maintaince because they are old, but also they are designed to be fixed.
The only company making new cars I have any faith in at all is Mazda. They are small and ran by people who actually like cars, so they don't do dumb stuff like make the ac controlled by a touchscreen, or tune the suspension to terminally understeer, or design in a delay on the throttle to cheat fuel economy tests.
Anything used and not basically still new, you have to go model by model. If there isn't an active enthusiast forum full of people who aren't obsessed with that car specifically, it's probably trash.

I got 298k miles out of a 92 camry with maybe 3 oil changes a year. Better than I deserved since I did basically fuck all to keep it running.
