- bee_rider 3y agoI’ve connected to plenty of machines that are worth more than my car (although it isn’t as if my car was $35000 in the first place, that’s a bit excessive!). I was just using cars as a unit of measurement, to aid intuition. Maybe I was too circuitous in my original comment. I only see prices in the 7k range on the site.
