Sadly maybe 20 years ago $17K was price of a car. Median car price these days is close to $50K and there are hardly any new cars less than 20

  You can buy a new Toyota car or SUV in USA for $25k. You can buy a used Toyota for $17k.

  The median price is high because Americans tend to buy more car than they can afford and/or need. If we look at what you can realistically buy OTD (out the door) prices, the picture changes. New Odyssey/Sienna are coming in the low to mid $40k, and these are at the upper end of quality and features. Your typical compact SUVs is in the upper $20k range.

      You're right. My prices were a few years off. Still, nowhere near the $50k mark.
