People of all socioeconomic classes neglect cars.
That was the case when I was working on consumer cars, and according to friends and former colleagues who still work on consumer cars, that is still true.
Oh, I am sure. However, if it becomes eat or get my oil changed. I am going to say that eating wins 99.9% of the time.
