You are correct. That is why I explained that I have joined the general strike, and we are waiting for sufficient numbers.

Us general strike folks are just waiting to have enough on board for it to be super painful all over. I’m ready.

I’ve done my part, as has everyone else here in the comments. The disheartening part is that their profits continue to go up. They continue to raise prices so sharply that every time they lose customers, they make more money. Shitting on everyone is a viable business strategy.

That’s not an unlimited amount of data.

Personally, I agree with your mindset, but I’m pretty handy with fixing/maintaining my own vehicles. For someone needing something to reliably get back and forth to work/school/daycare, I understand why people don’t go this route. Shop lead times have skyrocketed in the last few years, as have repair prices. Sometimes you just need something you don’t have to worry about.

Hey there, fellow Miata owner!
