tfw unrestrained capitalism guts manufacturing 🤷‍♂️

it didn't have to be like this. CEOs didn't need 4th houses and megayachts in exchange for making cheaper, shittier products. 🤷‍♂️

don't buy new shit.

Just because you can afford new cars doesn't mean you should buy them. I have never bought a new car in my life, regardless of income, because it makes no financial sense. Side effect: house paid off by 40.

Actually has the 2UZ-FE V8, so this thing with 500K miles is still like new.
