Who will benefit if Russell Vought has his way with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau? Crooked banks. Discriminatory lenders. Unscrupulous auto lenders like Toyota Motor Credit who ripped off borrowers. www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

Imagine being FREE from having to buy cars from sleazy car dealers who jack up the prices, forge documents, make a killing on the financing, and sell deathtrap vehicles without getting lethal safety recall defects fixed first.

BEWARE: 🚨 🚨 General Motors Sierra trucks recalled due to engine failure. All too often, the safety recall repair fails to fix the problem. GM also fails to provide safe loaner vehicles or comparable rentals. www.torquenews.com/17998/2023-s...

Hey #Ohio -- what gives??? #datacenter #taxes

#California #WeFeedYou

The price of auto loans is skyrocketing. How can you save $$? NEVER get financing from a car dealer. They make a huge profit by selling your contract to lenders, at your expense. Don't agree to "e-contracting." That makes it easy for sleazy dealers to forge your "e-signature" & overcharge you.

One important way @governor.ca.gov is helping #California's new and used car buyers -- signing the Combating Auto Retail Scams Act to make buying a car more affordable and less risky. autos.yahoo.com/deals-and-bu...

Shopping for a car over #MemorialDay weekend? Beware of CarMax.

Thank you @governor.ca.gov for signing the #California Combating Auto Retail Scams Act into law, making buying new and used cars more affordable and less risky. #scams #affordability autos.yahoo.com/policy-and-e...

And - #California has some of the best pro-consumer protections in America, so you get to keep more of what you earned and have better protection against scamsters / crooked corporations / car dealers / predatory auto lenders. autos.yahoo.com/policy-and-e...

Meanwhile, in America, the #Trump administration eliminated tax breaks for consumers who buy EVs. #affordability #inflation #costs #prices

Interested in buying an electric vehicle? Worried about the logistics of charging it? Interesting info from @jalopnik.bsky.social #EVs #batteries #energy #affordability #prices #inflation

Imagine being free from fossil fuels and not getting price-gouged by the oil industry. How much would Americans save? Not only in the price of gas, but in time spent going to and from the gas station. #inflation #gas #prices #affordability #climate #EVs

NEVER get a loan from a car dealer. Instead, join a nice, friendly credit union and get pre-approved for a loan before you buy. That way, you can save thousands of $$$. Plus get the car inspected by your own mechanic before you sign anything. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ST-M...
