You can find this all over YT. It's insanity. For the record, my wife drives a 2019 Camry. I drive a 2012 Fiesta. Both paid off. I only have the Fiesta because my sister wanted to sell it and it was a good deal for the times where my wife and I both need to drive. We were a one-car family for a few years.
