    Good thing the bike has low ongoing costs compared to a car: no fuel, insurance, and low maintenance costs.

    Over a year, a car costs thousands just to operate.

    Plus you’re comparing a brand new bike, which will go with little maintenance for years, to a cheap car, which will break down next month.

          No one is saying it’s not. Your statement’s implication is that because follow up costs are so low that the upfront is negligable, but that’s fallacious as it’s still significant and potentially out of reach for someone that wasn’t planning on spending as much as a car upfront.

            Your statement’s implication is …

            I’m gonna say the same thing after my cat wakes up:

            “Ooooo big stretch.”

                In this case, when I wrote “You got all of that”, my statement’s implication was that I read your whole comment.

                Having a hard time comprehending any comments? Maybe I should type slower for you.
