A BIG HAT TIP TO 2ndDivisionVet!.......................
I was reading the other day that the average college debt now is $30,000. And I thought, wow, that’s a lot. Until I realized that’s what a medium priced car costs now.

This article has been posted, reposted, and debunked multiple times already.
Those Dodge Durangos that you see above, for instance, are from pre-bankruptcy Chrysler...not current pictures.
Other pics are from rail marshaling yards and ports where you get surges of vehicles based on shipping schedules.
Those Acuras are 2 generations old.
Old pics.
