There's only so many people who can afford to spend $60,000+ on a car

I was surprised to learn the Chevy Bolt is 26k for the base model, and would only cost 19k after the federal credit.

Didn't Chevy discontinue the Bolt?

[–] ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 year ago

I have been informed from another comment here that they did discontinue it. :(

The issue is that gor some reason nobody speaks in total cost of buying a car, not the car dealers not the banking institutions. They all talk about monthly payments and for some reason people can't do basic math that $1000 for 60 months is a huge fucking amount.
