New cars are more reliable than used and while it’s not a good idea to take loans when you’re broke, sometimes it’s the only option.

Admittedly I live in a high cost of living area, but yeah most Americans arent going to have $5k on hand.
lol I think you’ve lost the topic of conversation we were having here
Big picture here - just because you have a single used car for sale at $400 doesn’t make used cars in general affordable.
Those estimate signs are doing a lot of heavy lifting for you and you’re underestimating those costs.
Maybe in bumfuck Mississippi those are regular prices, but I doubt it.
You gonna install all that for free?
Batteries alone start at $200.
You’re in south Mississippi. Enough said, dude. That’s why everything is cheap and you’re trying to sell a non-running car for $400.
A battery, ignition lock, and new key is not just $200
It's not just $400 - you listed out like $1,000 worth of repairs it needs before it can be driven.
People will quit giving you shit when you stop floundering around and wondering why people would buy a new car instead of a used car.
Not THAT many people live in bumfuck Mississippi where things are dirt cheap out of your backyard. Not to mention you're selling a car for $400 and then saying it needs like $1,000 in repairs before it can be driven. Slimy.
Yeah....it's a 1995 and who knows how long it will last on the road before falling apart.
Just because you have a single used car you're trying to sell for cheap doesn't make the entirety of used cars suddenly more affordable.
Used cars in my area START at $10k. I think you're bullshitting.
Some people don’t have the time and money to drop $1,000 on a car that may not run for long and look for another car that’s more affordable.
I’m just saying it’s really expensive to be poor.
