Anyone else thinking of ordering a Tesla online here? Cheaper than a Camry!

Yep, I know prices have gone up, we can always look at used vehicles, there is usually no good reason to bear steepest brunt of depreciation.

My brother bought a 5 year old Honda Accord for $9,200 while we were in the US back in June 2019. Great vehicle for the price.

We are in agreement there. We bought an absolutely pristine 2015 Highlander Limited Platinum, very low mileage through Toyota's certified used car program. Cost $30K two years ago. Added a $1700, 12 year, 100,000 mile warranty that covers everything, except for glass. With nav units, power everything, and more gizmos and attachments than you can name (the owner manual is 756 pages, the nav/entertainment unit another 300+ pages), one failure will about cover the cost of the warranty.

That’s one thing I love about the US, cars are so much more affordable, to the point where nearly everyone can afford to own one.

My brother found his $9200 Honda Accord on there. I think 5-year old cars are the best value for money in the US. The last car I owned before I left the US was a 5 year old Acura Integra, purchased for $7750 and sold it a year later for $7250 after adding 20k miles to the odometer.
