1. El Vehículo como Pozo de Dinero y Necesidad Constante.
La propiedad de un automóvil es vista como una necesidad costosa que drena constantemente los recursos financieros a través de pagos, seguros y mantenimiento. Muchos usuarios se sienten atrapados en un ciclo donde el vehículo es indispensable para generar ingresos, pero consume gran parte de ellos.

Los fallos mecánicos inesperados generan una gran ansiedad, especialmente cuando los individuos carecen de los fondos necesarios para reparaciones esenciales, lo que a menudo interrumpe su capacidad para trabajar y ganar dinero.

3. Lujo, Mal Gusto y Despilfarro de Capital.
Existe una fuerte crítica hacia la compra de vehículos de lujo o de diseño controvertido (como el Cybertruck), percibidos como un desperdicio de dinero por parte de personas con exceso de riqueza o mal gusto, que invierten grandes sumas en productos de baja calidad o dudosa utilidad.
- Buy a tesla cybertruck and tell people how bad you are with money . It is a sign you are, it is plastic and stainless steel, held together with glue, for 100k, and looks like the car we all drew at 5.
- I honestly cannot understand why people keep buying this fucking piece of shit. The truck itself is a worthless piece of trash and has had so many problems since day one that i just dont understand why anybody would put down any kind of money on this thing.
- Yeah, well, anybody that paid 100 grand for the ugliest car ever made has to have problems with their self-esteem and money to squander.
- Nothing says i am a moron and have too much money like bringing home a the frame tv in the back of your cybertruck.
4. Estrategias de Ahorro y Ansiedad por el Mantenimiento.

- I am car repair shops favorite type of person to scam and i hate it. I will just let them do their upsells almost every time because time vs. Money, i would rather spend money and have peace of mind that things are maintained even though i could do some things myself cheaper.
- The elderly mechanic says talked with the other guys, and if you were one of my kids its still good and well let things slide until next time so you have time to save instead of money grabbing. I love you.
