<prompt> Human: Hi Reddit,I dont have a car and I mainly rely on Uber to get around. My workplace is less than 2 miles from my home and I use a ridesharing app to get to work which is very cheapIm 27 and make 60Kannum and Im a big fan of SUVs. Do you think it would be wise for me to invest 30K on an used SUV. I also dont have any savings.Oh the reason why I dont have any savings is because STUDENT LOANS I paid it off BTW. Im single no dependents. My monthly expenses come to 2KWhy do I need a car? My rationale would be convenience EDIT: Thank you for slapping some sense into me. After reading your comments, I have decided to buy a cheaper car and not look for an SUVAssistant: Nope! Why not buy a used car with low mileage for a fraction of that costHuman: Well I was checking Tahoe, Jeep, Dodge and the good used cars start at 25K. Anything below that Ill have to settle for sedan.Assistant: Ill have to settle for sedanI assume this mentality explains why you have no savings. If you worry about keeping up with the Jones, they will make you broke. You have champagne taste but a beer budget. FYI 1. Its a privilege just to own a car, ANY car. 2. You can buy reliable used SUV for under 15k.Human: Im 27 and make 60Kannum and Im a big fan of SUVs. Do you think it would be wise for me to invest 30K on an used SUV. I also dont have any savings. Do you have any suggestions for an SUV model so that I can look it?  <response>: Do you have any suggestions for an SUV model so that I can look it?No, I dont. 1, because its a simple search on Craiglist you can do yourself. And 2, because you wont like the options. I sold a Jeep Grand Cherokee a few years ago for 5000. It was about 8 years old with 160k miles on it. I know the guy that bought it and he is still driving it, 3 years later. You are seeking validation for a financially foolish move and you arent going to get that here.
