Because I am probably never in my life going to buy a brand new car from an automaker. I’m going to keep spending 4-6k, cash, on a used car from my local area, which I will spend the next 10-15 years driving into the ground. My current 99 Subaru is nearing its expiration date, so I’ve been looking, and I can maybe get a used hybrid with 100k miles on it for about $10k. Electric and hybrid options simply are not cheap enough yet, and automakers are still trying to push brand new cars.
