Yeah, I don't think Dave would agree with the advice these two are giving. I'm pretty sure Dave would not recommend spending 37.5% of our income on a car when the current car is in great condition, just because we're embarassed to drive an '06.
An 06 Corolla with 150k miles is the perfect car. Still has years of usable reliable life left and is no longer depreciating. Selling it now would be silly
Keep riding it, if you don't need to replace it. During these times, don't replace it. When everyone wants it, it's more expensive. In a few months or years, nobody wants or can't afford it then you buy what you want. In case you need it, because it's done. You've got the opportunity to do so.
As long as it runs, it works. This caller seems to have a good head on his shoulders though. Choosing to drive around in an old car for his future. You deserve that new car, man! You do.
I agree. I see video's saying repos are off the charts and the dealer auction lots are overflowing. I haven't seen it. Even if it's true there are plenty of people who saved and are waiting to buy. That will keep prices up, plus manufacturers are going to start transitioning to electric so new ice cars are going to be getting more scarce.
I was in a similar situation. It hurt to write the check. I stared at the ceiling for about a week wondering what I had done - lol. Two years later I still like the new (not any more) car but sometimes I wish I would have just kept the old one a while longer to increase the savings etc. Your tag fees and insurance will definitely go up.
When I was in his situation I traded in an old CRV for a newish AUDI. It was the worst mistake. The CRV was ultra reliable while the Audi was in the shop all the time. I am glad caller is getting another Toyota but the newer toyotas have more plastic parts and more expensive to fix. Corolla Cross is also a new design so it will have more bugs than a Corolla sedan.
If the caller decides to upgrade to a new or newer car, he might want to then consider opening up a "car account", where he begins making a monthly car payment to so when that car needs to be replaced, he has specifically saved to pay cash for the next car and won't have to to take money out of his savings account. Saving for an expense is a lost art.
Don’t ever finance a car. A house can at least act as a return on investment, but financing something that heavily depreciates in value will have you feel cheated. It’s one of those deals that are tempting and feels good in the moment but you feel the long term consequences the longer you are in the term. From the payments, interest, penalties, the required amount of insurance, the maintenance, the unexpected yet always expensive repairs to make to the car, and by the end you will be lucky to even still have the car functioning in the end.
I grew up in an upper class house and my parents are super loyal to GMC and our local salesman because he’s my dad’s high school friend. However, I got my first job and my parents already ran a credit report to get a $50K!!!!! GMC Canyon. I don’t like it but we live in a rural off-road area where 4WD is needed. My dad called me a few days ago to ask if I would like a Canyon and I said I like it, not knowing how much it would cost. Then he came back with news saying that he got pre-approved for a Canyon and we got a credit check. I didn’t know about the credit penalties 😅. So now we have to either finance a $50K car which will end up costing $71K for me, since it will be in my name or wait 9 months or so to find a used out of warranty small truck that I can buy outright for $35K.
Just keep the car you have man. If it runs good… run it until it doesn’t run anymore and keep saving and investing the money you already have. Then get a newer car. He only wants this car as a status thing. Now good for him for at least looking at a reasonable car like a Corolla instead of a stupid BMW or something… but still. I drive a 1998 Toyota Land Cruiser that I paid 10k cash for with 210k on it, and she is still going strong. And I have significantly more money and income than him. I plan on driving this thing into the ground then getting another one…
@@kevinabernardo What does that have to do with anything? A new Land Cruiser is basically a $100k vehicle… I’m talking about LCs from the 90s lol They may be discontinued but there will be used ones around for a very long time.

My point is I could afford a brand new vehicle today with ease but I still choose to drive a 25 year old truck that I paid not a lot of cash for. That’s the point.
Bought a used ‘14 Lexus GS350 f sport for $27000. It’s been 3yrs and same year/spec cars with the same mileage are stealing for $24000 today.

But Dave also says that no more than half your income should be spent on a car. So if he makes 80k, he can get a brand new 40k car. Dave's advice can contradict itself sometimes.
Hope his decision to buy a new car is not because he’s now dating. I’d see a girl who has no problem sitting in his ‘06, she is a keeper. Not because of a Maserati.
Yes if you are close to marriage please wait until you marry to buy it. It's more fun that way. Used cars cost more than new right now, so we got a new one ( all pre saved up too ) for the warranties on it. We are close to what Dave says. Funny it costs almost as much as our first house did 35 years ago. That is hard to wrap my head around but I'm going to enjoy that new car smell and not being stranded!
@@juliettezea9507 I enjoy compromise and house hunting sharing my life with a good partner. Our first house lasted us 30 years but A young man I know is now stuck with a house that his bride does not like. Just my opinion and life experience.
I disagree. $30K for a car is too much if your sallary is $80K. The traditional rule of thumb is that your car should not cost more than 25% of your income. Just because the cost of cars has gone up doesn't mean our ability to pay more has gone up. Ordinary people are being priced out of the new car market. Now he, and everybody else earning $80K, which is a great income, have to buy used.
Buy brand new. Buy a sensible mid range. It's cheaper in the long term. Even a 2 year old is already 15% into its 15 year life expectancy. So a 30K 2 year old isn't really cheaper than a 36K new car.
Folks: _cars are depreciating assets._ There's no reason to upgrade your car that works unless you're doing it for utility like cargo capacity or gas savings. There's a reason why Buffet drives what he drives: people with real money don't give a crap what you drive.
I’m 22 making 30k a year not in school due to failing due to mental illness. Right now I drive a 2016 my parents got me for just under 10k before fees, I may get a new civic soon since I really want one and can afford it.

Inflation. Same reason houses won’t go back to $100k again. Once prices on things go up they generally stay there.
