When 30k-40k is now considered budget. We're screwed

Definitely do one for used cars. Preferably 5 yrs old or older.

Jesus 20-40k being affordable is the new normal, depressing

Seeing high 20s listed as "budget" makes me want out of this timeline

Nice pics! I do love how you stand in front of the WRX the whole time, subliminally giving us all a jones for it, once again haha!

I would watch and value your videos about used vehicle spectrums. From my experience, new to 10-year-old vehicles make up a lot of the bank loan territory? Classics really deserve their own video. xD Keep doing great Tyler!

The 23 impreza sedan 5 MT is a really good value if you can find one. Picked a new one up a few months ago for 22k with add on features and AWD. Fill ups have ranged between 34 - 41 mpg us.

Good informative video btw.

The Rav4 Hybrid LE I think should be the TOP of the list. The reliability, standard features, room, power and fuel economy are all fantastic.

I would add the VW Jetta GLI to the list. My son bought a 2023 with the DSG for $31, 000 and with 20K miles on it now he loves it. Black with the Black package it is the best looking Jetta of this generation that I’ve seen. To me it feels like a long wheelbase GTI without the sketchy Haptic Touch controls.

I'm only interested in manual cars so my options are limited. Luckily there are still some options new.

Hi, very useful video Tyler. The video about used cars would be really nice, maybe even some performance options too(?)

Hats off to the brands that build the infotainment system into the dash and don't slam it on the dash like an afterthought.

We personally got a Santa Cruz this year as it is incredibly practical, available at 4yr 0% apr, and around 28k. Very hard to beat that!

Honestly, I think the GTI base trim and Mazdas (CX30 or the Sedan) are the best value cars out there.

The sedan Carbon Edition is hard to beat if you want “luxury”. GTI base trim if you want fun with lots of tech (compared to its rivals).

I was about to ask about the Jetta GLI as a recommendation. Any reliability insight on those?
Great video and overview

I'd be interested in seeing you review some used cars. It would love to see a review on an Integra or 2024 Pilot.

Subaru WRX is selling for a really good deal here in Canada. I just quoted a lease base WRX for $155 biweekly/24months and it's avaible!
