Yup, I feel that. My "new" car purchase this year was a used 2015 Nissan leaf that was like 6k. It baffles me how my colleagues budget their money. A rivian?? Son, that's the cost of a new roof.
EDIT: I don't know new car prices so I had to look it up. It's actually almost the cost of two new roofs! The high end model is a down payment for a nice house in my market!
Depending on their circumstances, they might already have the new roof too. Or more likely they bought the vehicle with a minimal down payment and stretched the loan across 80 months.
How big is your roof?
Fairly big. Main issue is the house is really old so there's a good amount of extra stuff that I'm opting to get. I think I got quotes as low as 28k from some companies, so the rivian would be 3 of those haha.
