With business/work, new vehicles make more sense if you get in a trade-in cycle.
I bought 1 new vehicle for personal use, which was a Honda Pilot for my family, and it was at a surprising price (before covid).
Now I don't know what I would do. People keep buying new no matter what the cost is, so the prices will continue deeper into insanity.
