steel is not cheap
but it is more plentiful than you think
special lubricants that can only be made from oil and gas, diesel, and ethanol used for farming- not racing cars
the middle class is getting triple squeezed here, the nuclear plant shut down and now we have to buy electricity at a higher rate; the jobs are getting lower and lower paid because of illegal immigrants; and heating gas has gone up 40%. so just up the debt and buy a new hybrid car? I think not..... I like the idea of just buying a sub-compact from a rental car lot-USED (or better yet- from the repo yard
)
