    Keep in mind that Americans hold $1.5 trillion in car debt. Most of those people can’t actually afford the luxury cars they’re driving. They might look rich, but a lot of them are broke.

        I have driven luxury cars before, never owned one. And I get it. They are not painful to drive. More comfortable in every aspect of the experience. Now you have to decide if that is worth it or not for you and for me personally it isn’t.

      Sales guy at my job made a sale that is by far the biggest in the corporation history. Bought a Tesla right after the ink was dried. Took me out to lunch at a fancy place and confessed that the sale was only possible because I was there and had worked on that type of process before. Alright I am fine with the situation but maybe don’t park it right next to my 15 year old civic.
