Yeah but you can manage the fuel within your cash flow. Difficult to get credit and manage the purchase of a large expensive car. And having two cars is too expensive as well.

America is not the world and is not the entire market.

Show me where I said or even implied that? Why must you argue and pick battles with everyone? Maybe time for a break?

True. The setup kinda requires that you need two cars in the first place.
