the idea that a brand new camaro,mustang,challenger costs as much as a house just boggles my mind.
Because it doesn't.

The national average for a home loan in the USA is $225,000 or so. That's Ferrari territory.

I do not know your friend but 40k for a house on 10 acres is a price in a very cheap area. You could theoretically live in one of the $1 homes in Newark or Gary Indiana and then a soft taco would technically be the same price.
