In spite of record prices for new cars, a well used car is almost worthless.

An older car with a bunch of miles is not welcome as a trade-in anymore.

Some of the reasons are:

1. The average shade tree mechanic can't work on them.

2. Almost any repair at a deal is prohibitive

3. Kids seem to have more money than adults and they don't want to drive a clunker, either.

The only thing that can really be salvaged from a high mileage car is body parts. And body work is also extremely expensive due to clear-coat finishes. etc.

Going to be a lot of cars just sitting around rusting away in the future. They don't even rust as well as the older ones!!
