    And I wouldn’t pay any amount of money for a Dodge, never mind $35K cash ‘Murican.
    I had hopes... It won't be a good car at all...

    Point being, the younger generations aren’t all that into car culture, given the costs to buy, maintain, own a car. They’ve invented the “shared economy”. It’s a different world.
    Yeah maybe.  Will be interesting to see how that shakes out when they turn 30, 35 get married, have a kid and move to the burbs.  Things change and we kind of turn into our parent.

    What youth, say 20's, can afford a 40k car?  Even living at home that has to be a tough nut to crack, no?

    It’s less about affordability, though a factor, and more about “need.” With Uber, Lyft, Zip car, Home Depot and U-Haul and the ongoing cost of car ownership, the younger generation just doesn’t think they “need” a car, particularly if they choose to live in a place with decent public transportation. I’m one current car dying away from deciding whether to get another or go carless. And I love driving and can appreciate cars as beautiful machines.
