if it wasn't $4k that would probably convince many to keep it to wait/see. Even for the average
apple fan that's a chunk of change. That's used car money, for anyone that's not making like $70k+.
But also I FUCKING KNEW they wouldn't magically fix the comfort issues. I've used VR, it is not enjoyable for most people to be in for hours on end. the tech will get better but I just don't know who's asking for this lol
I mean if you make 70k pre-tax then buying this is like 8% of your annual income
I meant that specifically in regards to how much someone making 70k+ might spend on a car. Not that dropping $4k on an apple vision is a drop in the bucket at that income, just that people making that kind of money are more likely to have a $7-10k+ used car, or a newer or leased car with payments.
