| HHI around 1.5M. Honda Odyssey and an old Chevy. Keep planning on getting a new car but never get around to it. |

| Looking at car brand is silly as once you start adding features a lower brand could end up being the same cost of a higher brand. |

| HHI over $1M. Drive a Jeep. |

Jeeps can easily be $50-100K. |

This thread just proves the website is full of women. Such a stupid comment "I wouldn't feel comfortable buying a BMW unless I made 500k." LMAO! The average BMW car driver makes like 120k (https://hedgescompany.com/blog/2019/03/new-bmw-owner-demographics/#:~:text=The%20average%20household%20income%20of,2020%20is%20%24124%2C800%20per%20year.)
New college grads making 50k buy 25k Toyotas so why wouldn't someone making 100k buy a 50k car?? |

Also a DCUM stereotype.
HHI of $275,000. Just bought a brand new Mazda CX-9 (replacing a 15-year old Toyota) and our second car is a 10-year old Honda fit that I expect to run forever. No interest in a fancy car - I'd rather put my money into real estate. |

| HHI $350k, we drive a 2016 Nissan Sentra. We live in the city and only have one car. I have no interest in spending my money on a nice car that will just get dinged up in DC. |

| 150k and a Toyota Highlander. |

| HHI ~$1M. Toyota Sienna, Nissan Leaf, and Jeep Grand Cherokee (primarily for weekend outings). |

A single person earning $125K is really different than a family with a HHI of $125K. But, then again, you knew that...you just wanted to make a sexist comment. |

Unless Americans are really, really dumb with money, I don't believe this blog post at all. Who is dumb enough to buy an $85k 7 series on only a $185k income? That's almost half your yearly income on a car. I checked out that website further - they have a similar post for Teslas, claiming that your average buyer for a Tesla model S makes about $185k. Lol, who in their sane mind would buy a $100k car on only an income of $185k? That is absolutely asinine. Thst source seems way off with their numbers unless Americans are that piss poor with money. If Americans really are this stupid with money, then I have zero sympathy for crap like student loan forgiveness, etc. Americans are leveraging too much and living lifestyles they cannot afford while wanting society to bail them out for their poor financial decisions because they don't want to sacrifice anything since they need to drive $50k+ cars. Gimmie a break. Your average BMW driver must be an idiot. |
