The end of production for the Nissan Versa means there are no new cars priced under $20,000 — a blow to some Americans who may find themselves priced out of the market.
75% of the people I know that buy those huge quad cab trucks actually need a minivan because all they use it for is shuttling their kids around but, of course, minivans aren’t “cool”.
Yeah… honestly I would go much further. I’d say 90% of people do NOT need a truck and 90% do not need a car either. They might want one, and that’s perfectly fine, but I bet if people were to actually check their GPS data for the last year we would see a very obvious pattern : 9-5 on the ring road from home to work, picking up kids, grocery, etc. Yes, there WILL be few trips to a warehouse, yes there will be a trip to the country side (but not off road) but that’s NOT the normal traffic. That something that could, just for the pleasure of it, be a rental that is adapted to it. I think there is a huge gap between how people IMAGINE themselves driving versus their very boring daily life. They get a car or a truck for the person they want to be, not who they actually are.
