Spoiler: Unless you're investing in rare classics, buying cars is about as -ev as it gets. Cash or 0% just makes it less bad. I just bought a used car last month and got 4% loan from local credit union. While it sucks to pay interest, even if I make min payments and take the full term length I'll pay less than 1k in interest. If you play poker for a living and aren't rolled to the tits, I guarantee it's more +ev to keep your cash and take a loan.
Not every car sold at a dealership is a ripoff, nor is every buyer getting screwed. I wouldn't even think he got a terrible deal, seeing as they're probably giving the Tucson's away. Seeing as we know almost nothing about his deal, my comment about him being a fish is based entirely around the fact that he said he bought a new car because his old one needed a new tire, and the fact that he bought a Tucson sport, lol. Guarantee the local Hyundai store got him with some "your veloster is worth 11k trade in" mailers, more than likely it was one of those fake scratch off promo things. Then he said he didn't even like the Veloster (big surprise, they're garbage) when he was super stoked to get it like a year ago. Honestly I was surprised he didn't get a Chrysler product with what has to be a disgusting amount of negative equity rolled into the new deal.

Good thing I checked into the Trooper vlog. He got a new car! While he didn't really say the details of the deal like he did last time, I can only assume it was under the same circumstances. It seems like he only focuses on the monthly payment so I'm sure the dealership made it seem like an amazing deal by taking his 1-2 year old car (how old was it?) and giving him this car for the same monthly payment. Heck, he's making more money so it's totally possible he's paying more a month too!
Trooper seems like the type of guy who's adjusts his expenses to match how much is coming in. I'm sure he is getting more money a month now so he went out and "upgraded" his car.
On a positive note, I hope this means there is a Trooper road trip coming up soon. From the lack of discussion about his vlog in this thread and his lower views, I'm guessing other people are falling off the bandwagon and tuning out. He needs a theme (road trip or challenge) to get his vlog back on track.
Also, lol at him just taking all of the junk in the floor of the passenger seat in his old car and dumping it right into his new car. Seems to show how he approaches everything in life. Typically Trooper. If he's one thing, he's consistent.
