| what vehicles would you say currently fit the bill? |
| oh god who cares |
| Anything bmw and above |
| I brought my son home from the hospital in a 1990 Honda CRX so honestly, anything that runs. |
this will be an 8-page thread |
| The teen who just got their liscense has a brand new Jeep Wrangler |
That is a fad...the opposite of quintessential. |
| Volvo |
| 30+ year old Mercedes manual transmission, passed down from some dead relative |
| 10 yr old Toyota Sienna. Run it till it dies. Which is why we have $$. We don't waste our $$ on new cars every few years. |
|
Upper middle class? Lexus for the flashy ones, Honda or Toyota for the practical ones. Maybe a Subaru with all the options for the engineers.
Maybe we should define UMC. |
You did not understand the assignment |
The UMC people I know drove BMWs until they had kids and now they drive Subarus, Volkswagens or Volvos if they want to be fancy. We know one family with a Tesla but they are an extreme outlier (and might not be UMC, though they would describe themselves that way, of course). The main thing is that they buy new cars and upgrade them more frequently than a middle class person would. |

I make 250k a year and drive a Nissan.
HHI is 510k. Stop striving and live your life OP. |
Jeep Wranglers are the opposite of a fad. |
