Sure, but they're still options for people who need a basic, functional car for a few years.
I'm not saying prices haven't gone up, they have. But there are still affordable options and the service life of a semi-modern ice vehicle from a decent manufacturer is probably longer than it ever was.
Specifically, I saw options for cars around 10 years old, some newer, with less than 50k miles for around $7k.
I would love to know where, because that's what I'm looking for. Around me, for that price, it would have at least 120k miles
I was searching in the philadelphia suburbs using auto trader. You basically just enter in your mileage options and other information and then sort by price lowest to highest.
