Be honest. Do you judge someone slightly on what car they drive? Also, what car brands are looked down on and which ones are respected besides merc, audi or bmw?

Life hack: don’t judge people based on what they own 👩‍⚖️

Another life hack - don’t think of it as owning anything - everything is on loan and can be taken away or lost.

I’m more likely to judge someone negatively for driving a luxury car than a cheap one.

Not by brand.
But I do notice and ingest how someone takes care of their vehicle, inside and out.

I’ve driven a slew of diff cars and I’ve owned anything from an old beater Accord to my current car (tech a luxury car, I guess).

As long as you take care of your car and it’s reliable to get you where you need, that’s all that matters.

Your car doesn’t define your personality or your worth (net or other).

My biggest financial mistake was buying a BMW in my 20s. It broke down so often and you were forced to go with expensive mechanics within their network or risk voiding car warranty.
So why did I do it? Wanted to feel rich, especially appear rich to my haters. But I went broke doing so.
An independent mechanic once told me if these ‘luxury’ cars didn’t exist, he wouldn’t have predictable recurring income.
Now in my 30s grossing 400k in household income and financially better off, I drive a Toyota. I couldn’t be happier.
I could buy an expensive car if I wanted.
But I invest my money in smarter places, and if I want to spend it, then on experiences like travel and food. Those will leave you with better stories and a lifetime of memories.
Even if I need an expensive car, I can easily just rent it for a day or a weekend.

Im with VP 2: if we’re now leasing iPhones then why are we still buying cars? I admit , I resisted leasing cars for most of my young adult life and now in middle age I realize it’s so much more convenient because the dealership takes care of any necessary maintenance and I get to to try out different model cars and can comfortably afford luxury vehicles this way without being stuck with expensive maintenance bills for the life of the car. Don’t judge those who don’t drive luxury cars but I do like mine cuz they’re fun to drive and feel very safe

This!! I immediately judge and I don't feel bad about it. That's a choice, and a pretty inconsiderate one.

If they're driving an entry level "luxury" car I will judge them hard.

If they are driving a normal car or a fully-loaded minivan I will respect them.

Teslas became status symbols. When things become status symbols then people will start associating values with ownership even if it was purchased for purely utilitarian purposes.
