Human beings are not perfectly rational automatons. Sometimes they want brand new stuff. I have a friend who is 15 years older than me and very financially savvy. He grew up in India in a poor family and his father spent all his free time repairing their ancient clunker that kept breaking down. That memory is enough that he only buys new cars.
