[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The humble millionaire next door seems like nonsense to me; rich people are not driving 25 year old Volvo station wagons. And everyone with a nice new luxury car obviously isn't broke and overextended. I'm currently in a swank town and every car is a new Range Rover, Porsche crossover, Tesla, or Audi-BMW-Mercedes (they all look alike). The worst car I see are new Chevrolet Tahoes, which are like 80 grand. If that humble old money thing ever existed, it certainly doesn't anymore.[/quote]

I would kill for a 25 year old Volvo station wagon.

Rich folks can afford anything. But the car manufacturers all produce indistinguishable crap today. If you have a decent vehicle now, there is zero reason to buy something new today. And don't even get me started on the people that choose Range Rovers or Jeeps. [/quote]

You’re so full of crap. Nobody rich is driving an out of warranty piece of junk with gen 1 airbags that probably don’t even work. Rich value safety and their time.[/quote]

You sound like you don't read much.  As of 2026, Warren Buffett drives a 2014 Cadillac XTS. Known for his frugality, the 94-year-old billionaire rarely drives—only about 3,500 miles a year—and prefers to keep his cars for a long time, often viewing them as utility items rather than status symbols.
