This doesn't explain similar phenomena, though, like the Japanese replacing their cars frequently: https://www.nytimes.com/1993/09/12/world/why-the-cars-in-japan-look-just-like-new.html https://www.nytimes.com/1993/09/12/world/why-the-cars-in-jap... https://www.picknbuy24.com/column_146.html https://www.picknbuy24.com/column_146.html It makes me wonder if a deeper cultural factor is at work here.
- rangibaby 8y agoJapanese replace their cars frequently because taxes are structured so that after a few years it becomes worthwhile to buy a new car.
