Car Shoppers - How Affordability & Gas Prices Shape Choices

Car shopping? I'd like to hear from you. Hello - I am a journalist reporting on today's car market and car-buying. I will respect the purpose of this forum, but I am looking to hear about your shopping experience. I'd like to ask you questions about your experience such as: -What are you looking for? How long have you been in the market? -How much is affordability changing what types of vehicles you are considering purchasing? (Would you prefer an SUV, for example, but are seeking a more reasonably-priced sedan instead? Are you considering different brands?) -Are you looking new or used? ICE or electrified? Leasing or buying? And why? -Are today's climbing gas prices influencing your search? Please reach out if you'd be willing to get in touch to share your experience. Thank you.
