Wtf car are you buying for 14k? 14k Canadian no less. Did you last buy a car in 1993? Or are you talking about used cars, which isn't what this conversation is about.

Obviously used, only way I'd ever justify buying a new car is if it was an EV under 30k. The "conversation is about" whatever anyone thinks is relevant to the topic so deal with it.

Obviously used. I bought a 2 year old Honda civic in 2019 for 18k Canadian. Like OP, I'd be willing to go into the high 20's, hell I'd even do low 30's for a sensible EV.

I am not interested in a 60k SUV or a 100k pickup EV. Who the fuck is the target market for those EV Ford pickup trucks?
