Yea, it's killing everybody. Used cars are as much as new, repairs on an out of warranty car are hilariously expensive for anything major...there's no relief.
However, I guess it could be worse. People spend the same amount of money on a Sport Wrangler Unlimited with literally no features and questionable reliability vs a TRDOR. The fact that both are $45k vehicles is absolutely insane to me and it's because they both hold value so well. You want a 1500 pickup truck with 4 doors and 4x4? Good luck getting under $50k for even lower optioned models. Same issue though, they hold value. It's crazy and only getting worse.
