Why don't kids want to drive anymore?

>>509211922 (OP)
I got my moms hand me down honda civics, I always try to drive as long as I can without filling up the gas, today I made it to the gas station and the meter was reading 0KM left in the tank, fucking ballin I was on cloud 9.

>>509212749
isn't that hard on the car or something?

>>509211922 (OP)

>>509212867
probably

>>509211922 (OP)
Just get a Toyota Yaris. Job done innit, bruv.

>>509211922 (OP)
Really hate muh truk fags

>>509212749

Congratulations man

>>509212867
Yes, makes the fuel pump work hard as it’s having separate more air. I don’t person get below half

>>509211922 (OP)
I buy old cars and fix them to drive, pic related is my winter beater I bought for $500, all it needed was tires and a timing belt. I have never spent more than $4500 on a vehicle in my life and I'm 40....

>>509211922 (OP)
Maybe the death of the affordable car

>>509212749
>>509212867
Bad for the fuel pump. Personally I think no one should treat cars like boomers did anymore since they're being phased out. Ideally everyone would be mileagemaxxing nowadays.

>>509212867
Not catastrophic, but don’t ever do that on diesel cars.

>>509211922 (OP)
Remember when King nigger killed the used car market with his cash for clunkers program and forced everyone into buying a new car with prices through the roof thanks to lower supply and increased demand plus inflation? You know, the one that young, entry level workers relied on to provide themselves with affordable transportation to and from a job?

>>509213374
If you ever start sucking air bubbles on a diesel it’s like throwing rocks in your fuel. That’s why if you care you run a FASS

>>509211922 (OP)
From the perspective of the auto makers, they don't want anymore than two owners before the car is junked. The new car gets bought or preferably leased. After the lease period is up, the car gets traded in for another new car. That used car gets sold to a second car buyer. By 100,000-150,000 miles the car is out of warranty and should be disposable by then as far as the auto makers are concerned. That way the second buyer has to go and buy another car just out of lease.
This is the business model for the auto makers. It provides steady production and income. They don't really care about the dealers that may have to fix the cars for a 3rd buyer.

YOU MUST USES BUSES WITH NIGGERS AND THEIR 8 KIDS ALL SCREAMING TO SAVE THE PLANET GOY!!!!!!!

$14,000 is too expensive for zoomers.

>>509211922 (OP)
I can't even afford to drive my car due to required insurance, and that's before factoring in gas and the occasional maintenance.
I've had my car for years but it's more expensive to use than I can keep up with, and there's no point to working if you're just pouring that money into the ride you take to work.
I ride my bike and stack cash instead.

My daughter is 22 and still doesn't have a license. Her boyfriend doesn't have a license. They Uber everywhere or take the bus, which in Atlanta is probably nigger infested and disgusting. I've bribed her with a brand new vehicle of her choosing to get a license, but she refuses saying it's easier to live the way she's living.

Even if you can get past the finances part, you still have to share the roads with an increasingly swarthy and unhinged population full of low impulse control and low IQ decision makers who may or may not be literate enough to read signs in plain English. In my city alone there are multiple car accidents daily (hundreds per year)

>>509212867
Not good, not terrible

>>509218588
In the US alone enough people are killed on the roads every year to fill a Super Bowl stadium. Take a moment to think about that. An entire superbowl stadium worth of human beings are slaughtered by cars every year in just the United States. That's not even the end of it, either. You can fill more then 10 Super Bowl stadiums with the number of people injured by cars... again in just the US alone.

Cars are the worst form of transportation possible.

>>509211922 (OP)
kid at my job is like 24 and still gets dropped off by his mom
he says cars aren't worth it because of insurance and shit so he never bothered to learn how to drive

I can't blame him for not owning a car but you should still learn how to drive one if you have to in an emergency

>>509211922 (OP)
These are cars YOU pay when you can get a decent job. Anyone still getting a car probably has well-off boomer or Gen X parents and they're going to buy them something better.

>less retards on the road because zoomzooms are too afwaaaaid!!!
works for me

>>509219199
the used market is also fucked

>>509219142
>I can't blame him for not owning a car
that reflects horribly on your workplace
where you work at?
shouldnt they give some company car to this kid just to avoid looking so pathetic?

>>509220692
........a company car?
What country are you from?

After I bought myself a bimmer, I do not want to drive anything else

>>509221380
enjoy the maintenance, faggot
for what is essentially a honda civic

>>509219057
Considering the sheer size of the USA?
And the scale of everything there?

You could probably fill a super bowl stadium with the number of Americans who died from having sex with animals each year.
Or the number of Americans who can't pronounce nuclear
Or the number of Americans who cut their own dick off during a psychotic episode.

Also the kids want to drive but nobody makes anything they can afford or that they want to drive

>>509211922 (OP)
My dad nearly died in a wreck and it spooked me away from driving for a year
It sucked. I used to drive massive trucks and shit for work too. Now I’m ok

>>509222292
Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s dad died in a wreck, you didn't see him being a big pussy about it.

>>509211922 (OP)
Daughter is 18 and she just bought her first car. The insurance company wanted to charge her $1200 a month for a plan. Minimum wage is still 7 bucks an hour and they expect kids to survive this economy.

>>509222410
That guy drives cars for a living, idk why that’s comparable

>>509211922 (OP)
The death of the affordable car certainly has something to do with it but most kids got hand me down and used cars of which there is still at present a market for (though like everything else they’re more expensive). Drivers are much worse than they were in 2019 for some reason. I’m talking civilized white drivers too. We drive faster and more aggressively for some reason. If I didn’t have years of driving experience it would be very intimidating. But being swaddled by their parents to the point where everybody has some form of autism is part of it too

Look up the total number of cars actually claimed under cash for clunkers, it's barely above 500k total for the entire program
For context Ford makes 700k f150s alone per year
Plus it was not mandatory and if your car was drivable you would get more for selling it then giving it to clunkers anyway and people did that.

I ride a motorcycle.

>>509211922 (OP)
driving is the most jewish activity and is for fags

>>509215830
Maybe let her play gran turismo or racing games in general that got me into cars

>>509222440
>>509219142
You can take a lot of ubers/cabs for the amount the Jews at insurance companies charge.

Never mind the price of the car

>>509212867
Only when it starts misfiring.
It'll say there's nothing left while there's still enough petrol to keep the pump wet.
You'll hear the pump whirring too.

>>509223347
yes but there's the element of freedom, and some people live in areas where it's just not feasible to walk 10 miles between locations

>>509211922 (OP)
Because ev is gay its also the reason you cant have your student loans forgiven

Social anxiety is probably a big factor. Every car you pass is, in a way, a social interaction.

>>509211922 (OP)
Americans just dont like driving death traps.

>>509211922 (OP)
death of the middle class

Baby boomer car scalpers for starters. Guess what happens when you price gouge a used car for twice as much as you paid for it? Car flippers should be deported.

>>509219142
This. It's dystopian that you basically need a car to function in the west, and it's especially important to have a car when you're young so you can get a good start in life. Yet cars are expensive as hell to buy and maintain, and insurance fucks your ass when you're a young guy. If you don't have wealthy parents who can buy you a car and pay to maintain/insure it, it's basically GG

>>509213400
That was bush 2

>>509220692
>A company car
What is the name of this paradise, this heaven dimension you call home?

>>509219450
It's actually not
You just gotta learn to craigslist and marketplace

>>509220692
>shouldnt they give some company car to this kid just to avoid looking so pathetic?
Nigger the only person who I know gets a company car is my uncle who works for a multinational and he's a VP.

My own companys CEO on down doesn't get a company car.
