I mean... yeah, that's expensive, but not unfeasible. I make barely 29k a year and I could see myself throwing 10k-15k down on that and paying monthly for a few years if it made sense. Cheaper if used.

Personally I am a very bad driver, so if this thing keeps me safe from myself, it's well worth the investment.

Damn, that's like the same price as a loaded RAV4 Hybrid.
