Yarises?

You are absolutely right on the Fit.

So, the issue with the Fit is that this is the first time we've been in a financial position that we can be choosy with the car we end up with. The Solaris was sold to us at a heavy discount by a family friend when we were barely making ends meet.

Now, I reckon that we can afford a Prius. But it still feels like a lot to spend. So we are inclined to cheap out. The Fit occupies an awkward price point where if we are gonna spend more, we might as well saddle up and get what we'd really like.

We've broken into lower middle class purchasing decisions but we haven't really internalized it yet.
