Ronzi...
You are correct. Bread and Boxsters probably have similar prices in both places.
However, I'm thinking that if I lived in San Diego, all my salary would go for a tiny house (or 2 bedroom condo
) and all I could afford to park in front of that house is a used Honda Civic with a fart can muffler (or a three speed bike with an ace card clothes pinned to the back to make that Harley sound). But in Nebraska, I could have a big house and a nice boxster... sans the nice weather year round in which to enjoy that Boxster, of course!
That sun tax down there in SD is outrageous, forcing people to make car choices they wouldn't have to make living elsewhere. That's my point.
