Back in the late 70s, America was being deluged with so called economy cars as gasoline was approaching $1 a gallon. While riding in a friend’s new Honda at 35 mpg and $165 per month payment, my father made the simple observation. Buy a gas guzzler for $200 outright, run it into the ground in a couple of years, go buy another one. That is a low cost option even at 12 mpg.
