TLDR: So I met a dasher while doing Uber Eats that DoorDash full time like I do, and me and him have sparked up a conversation on how busy it is, how my day's going, etc. So he did ask me what type of car I drive. I told him a 2012 Toyota Camry Hybrid with 368k miles. I told him that I bought this car for 1.5k last year in January because I wanted a second car to DoorDash part time, because I didn't want to use my newer car, my 2019 Hyundai Sonata Sport Limited, for dashing part time anymore and let my fiancée drive that car. And also told him that I did lose my primary job in March of last year, so I decided to do this full time. Made 66k off this car while driving 20k miles and did nothing to this car but change the oil 4 times, and that's it. And I do my own maintenance, so I'm saving a lot in labor.
Then I asked him what type of car he drives. He told me that he just bought a 2026 Toyota Prius Hybrid because he didn't want no old car and think it's better to work in a newer car than an old car. I told him that's slightly irresponsible because you're paying a lot of money for that car like insurance, car note, and your depreciation is gonna be very, very bad. He told me that I didn't know what I'm talking about because I'm too young to understand. I'm 24 and I know that's even dumb. Is I'm the only one that think this or no?
