Yeah well, when their pay doesnt increase by the same inflation rate and most likely dropped like most middle income folks, 60K is alot more than just a rise in inflation. Many people keep lossing more an more in their wallets every year because their pay stays the same or doesnt keep up with inflation. This makes a 60k truck look crazy, which it is no matter how you slice it.
