    TBF, are there even ICE cars under $25K? A base model Corolla is $23K or something

      I think the Nissan Versa and Kia Rio are the only sub-$20k new cars left now that the Mitsubishi Mirage and Honda Fit are discontinued in the US.

      What’s insane to me is that these cheap compact cars are actually among the worst-selling in the US. The Ram, Silverado and F-150 each sell literally 20 to 30 times better.

        Inflation is nuts. Last time I was buying a car was in 2011, and I remember seeing new Mazda3s for like $13-$16k.

      Vanishingly few. There are still Nissans and Kias for under $20k.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
