    Implying cars will be affordable after tariffs. Cars from the past ten years are unreliable as hell. Everything before that is getting ran into the ground. Most people are priced out of the new car market.

      If there’s no alternative transport, people will be forced to buy cars at any price, preferably with a predatory loan. I don’t think making cars more expensive is going to have the effect of making everyone cyclists if there’s no investment in infrastructure to enable this.
