That era was killer for small cars because they were being phased out for larger more expensive poo poo.

We got a 2017 GTI Sport (the best GTI package in history, imo, with every possible upgrade that mattered but kept the plaid seats) brand new with a DSG auto dual clutch and mechanical diff for $21k. Aint no one ever beating that again, those were incredible times to be buying a smaller car.

Getting a dirt cheap smaller car in the mid 2010s is the milennial generational equivalent to buying a house in 2005 in that nothing like that will ever exist again.

Now it’s all expensive trucks and SUVs which are basically minivans for people too insecure to buy a minivan…

I wish I had taken care of my Neon, instead of being a broke millennial in my 20's

How the gently caress you cold calling autoloans?

I come to you.

I love getting refi notices on my car. Sure I would love a lower car payment, but I also don't want to be paying for my car for an additional 7 years. I put down as much as I could afford for a down payment so that I wouldn't have to get another 7 year loan.

It's very cool the apartment I live in is a "luxury apartment" that doesn't even have a real vent exhaust over the stove and instead just blows straight up onto the cabinets and to the ceiling. Greasy cabinets and a grease stain on the ceiling. $2200\mo for this poo poo lol.

what even makes it luxury

if you can buy it in bulk from home depot that feels disqualifying


is it because it's that weird grey color

Don't forget they made the appliances either black or stainless steel, and added a subway tile backsplash in the kitcheN!

Luxury apartment complex (at least now in Austin for the case of older complexes ) = new gray or dark primary color paint on the exterior and an updated property sign in sans-serif font

I think even the lovely old apartment I lived in 10 years ago is labeled as "luxury apartments" despite the fact that there isn't even any central air and is falling apart.

It's luxury because it's expensive. You have the luxury of paying $2600/mo for a 2 bedroom.

Or $1800 a month for a one bedroom, or $1400 mo for a a studio don't forget that part, housing is a luxury in 2023

[slaps some new paint on the outside of apartment complex] check out our new remodeled apartments

This is literally why I had to move. My old apartment refused to renew my lease for "renovations." Looking at a renovated apartment, they put some laminate in the entry way, replaced the perfectly fine white appliances with black ones and replaced all the kitchen cabinets.

That apartment was built in 2000, so it was perfectly fine as is. The thing is I've never lived anywhere that wasn't fine with just keeping cabinets from 1972, and a stove from 1989 if there was nothing wrong with them.
