'Cheap' cars aren't dead. What is dead is a price-sticker under $20,000.

That just means that the buying power of the USD has declined so much that no price is possible that is under the 20,000 mark.

Go ahead buy now. A time will come when the headline reads "Cheap Cars under $100,000 have disappeared."

My first brand-new 6-cylinder GM car was priced at $2200, if you feel like a little bit of history. :)
