You know what. It's the financial "entanglements" as well. Dealerships helping people keeping up with the Jones' on 3 year lease deals. The fear mongering of how a car is only good for 100k miles. How the gearbox is filled for life. The system is rigged man. Designed to keep people upgrading.
When I met my wife I had a VW Jetta. Many year. Broke down a few times. Turned into a money pit. She encouraged me to look into another car and I bought my first CPO E92. Had it 9 years. Amazing car. Never missed a heartbeat but then gearbox was on its way out. Sold it bought another BMW. 6 years with that. Only needed to upgrade as family grew.
