Vehicle prices are fucking ridiculous.
In 1980 my dad at 19 years of age worked road construction and as an equipment operator made $20/hour. That year he bought a brand new fully loaded Chevy Silverado for around $4500.
Flash forward 20 years or so. I'm working railroad construction, doing essentially the exact same thing, for only a couple bucks an hour more, and when I went to go price out pretty much the same truck in 2004, the fucking thing was like $40k...
How does that make any fucking sense? What's a fully loaded Silverado run now? upwards of $40-50k?
