By next spring/summer, used car values may have returned to normal as well. Maybe if you can prep yourself today to spend $50k, when the time actually comes, a $44k price is going to be a lot easier to mentally swallow?
Interesting points. The used market does seem pretty screwy right now. And production on new cars is ramping back up, so the shortages may abate and prices of everything may normalize or soften.
