    Welcome to GPF. These cars are so cheap becuase of the quantity in which they were made. They are IMO one of the most common cars out there....atleast in my neck of the woods.

    That and they were cheap to start with.

    Being a domestic also means more depreciation.

    You can see as many as four in a single intersection at a time.
