What's with late 90s and early 2000s economy cars today? Missing hubcaps, foggy headlights, dents and scratches everywhere, dulled paint, second taillight not working, covered in road salt, everything squeaks, etc. And the driver is almost always a miserable mother with three kids in the back. Explain how all of these cars are destined to this fate, /o/.

they become cheap and the people that end up buying them see them only as an appliance - like a kettle or toaster.

Ergo little or no maintenance, no care taken in operation or anything else.

It becomes just a tool from getting from A to B, like a bus.

It's an economy car. It was always an appliance.

Sounds exactly like my 2003 shitbox

And my 2000 shitbox! I've actually tried on the headlights though, fuckers just keep getting foggy again.

My 1998 has every thing mentioned but I love it. Paid $1500 for it 3 years ago and delivered at least 5,000 pizzas with it over 50,000 miles and its cost me next to nothing in parts. Not worth painting it beacuse rust. Same for scratches. Tryed fixing headlights but theyve refogged. Only plpd insurance and the fuckers who dented it drove off so nothing I can do there
I got tired of taking the hubcaps on/off working on it and one got screwed up anyway beacuse the roads here are shit

Only those at the bottom of the barrel are in the market for cars that are over 20 years old. Cars from 2010-2014 are already well within reach of anyone making slightly more than minimum wage.
