    36k for a new car is a lot for me but that’s not the worst deal. The problem is people are paying over 1k a month for 6-7 years.

      Yea that’s crazy to pay that for 7 years. The last car payment I had for 7 years was ~200 a month and I was 18 so credit was nonexistent.

      36k isn’t crazy for a hybrid AWD SUV in todays market, I paid a little more for the hybrid and AWD to get 45 mpg instead of 20s and the AWD is a safety feature since my part of the world gets severe winter weather.

      I’d love to have paid less but this is market is deranged
