WHY RIGHT NOW IS A HORRIBLE TIME TO BUY A NEW (OR USED) CAR

It seems right now, it is the worst time to buy a brand new car or a used car. The used car market is absurdly high.

With new cars, it seems that the only reason people are buying new cars right now is that people are bored at home, and they just want something to spend their money on, to give themselves a little bit more excitement in life (this is what they expect, yet it never really happens).

What do you want to do with your car anyways?

What do you want to do with your cars anyways? It seems now with Covid, a lot more people are into doing outdoorsy things, like hiking camping etc. but the funny thing is that 99.9% of camping and outdoorsy hiking things do not actually require all wheel drive, or some tough all-terrain vehicle.

For example, me and Cindy are currently in southern California where there’s not much to do, besides go eat and go to the mall. Therefore we got into hiking, as a way to break the monotony, and we actually really like it. Yet 99.9% of the trails we go to actually 100% do not require any special vehicle to get there. So I say save your money and your mental capacities, and just put that money towards gas.

Buying a new Tesla is like buying a new iPhone

Once again, because people are bored and they don’t know what to do with their time or money, they just put it into buying a Tesla, which is essentially the new sexy iPhone, except you happen to be able to drive it.

While I am a huge Elon Musk fan, and I am very impressed with Tesla, it seems that a lot of people are even selling their Tesla model S plaid cars. I think the ultimate take away is that cars don’t really change your happiness or lifestyle that much.

Even for me, I think the ultimate killer feature of Tesla cars is the auto pilot and auto driving function. Yet perhaps there is an actually an upside to manual driving. There is some Zen that comes along with having to drive long distances, especially when you drive without music or on the other distractions on. And if you’re tired, just take a nap before driving. Or go to the nearest gas station, and just take a quick nap.

Or what I think, better to buy Dogecoin then buy a Tesla.
