I get what you're saying, but if a construction worker buys a new Ford F150 that is constantly breaking, that is a much bigger problem to him than if a wealthy person buys a Range Rover as a 3rd vehicle for Tahoe runs and that vehicle has some recurring check engine lights.
Unless we're calling construction workers buying F150s with 72 month loans wealthy these days.
- jacobr1 4y agoNo, I think the OP is suggesting that the more likely scenario is some professional-class "weekend-warrior" type bought the F150s with the 72m loan, which later on was resold to the working-class construction worker on the secondary market.
- phpthrowaway99 4y agoI suppose. Even lemon laws are funny if you follow them to their conclusion, so maybe OP is right. Once a vehicle gets lemon lawed, it gets sent to auction where it is disclosed to dealers, and then it's just sold again to the public as a used car without the ability to be lemon lawed at that point.
- jacobr1 4y agoThere are some laws around maintaining the history the car. Sales must be recorded, certain accidents. I think certain types of flood damage. Getting a carfax is a must if you are buying a used car.
- Retric 4y agoSold yes, but also marked as a lemon. https://www.lemonlawlawyerscalifornia.com/2022/08/how-to-know-vehicle-lemon-history/ https://www.lemonlawlawyerscalifornia.com/2022/08/how-to-kno... There is nothing wrong with buying a lemon car at a sufficient discount.
- fragmede 4y agoI mean, yeah I would call someone in a brand new $75k vehicle wealthy, even if they did take financing to afford it. Especially if they took dealer financing. Who buys new and who can qualify for a loan like that these days? But if you’re talking a $15k used model and taking financing on that, that’s a different story.
