True car people are becoming a thing of the past

I would say the leading factor is cost.
Inflation .
Who can afford gas, rent, milk eggs, let alone muscle cars.
Everything is crazy expensive.
We were fortunate to have lived in different times.
Now it is like winning the lottery to even fnd a decent old car at an affordable price.

I somewhat disagree. People say inflation this and that yet most people I know in their late 20s and early 30s still find a way to drive a 35+ thousand dollar ford Bronco or some overpriced Jap SUV. They are still dropping 50+ dollars a dinner and live in quarter million dollar houses. Granted they are in debt but they are getting it done, making 40-80 k a year.

Good deals are still out there but the effort one puts in to the search and hunt equals the amount scored, that plus the good stuff is never going to be cheap.

Not arguing but I don't think the money is the issue, it's the laziness of wanting the finished product but no willingness to put the time and effort in....instant gratification for nothing put in.
