 American Airlines flight attendants might go on strike soon. Here’s what to know. Modern air travel is often terrible. Cramped seats, tiny luggage compartments — the list goes on. Yet, most of us in those cramped seats actually have it far better than the folks strolling the aisles, who — at least on American Airlines flights — earn barely over $27,000 per year while forced to live in major metro areas, often sleeping in their cars to make up the cost difference.

In all the stock photos that reference "credit card" and "car buying," the subjects are smiling. They probably shouldn't be. (Getty Images) Can you buy a car with a credit card? In this post-pandemic, nearly cashless society, that's a good question. The reasons for doing it are pretty obvious: To "get the miles" if you have an airline credit card, or hotel points, or if your card has a cash-back scheme. So you want to — but can you and should you?

The Kia Soul launched in the middle of the Box Car Era — six years after the Honda Element hit the market, five years after the Scion xB, a year before Nissan began importing the Cube — and has outlasted all of them. The Element died in 2011, achieving cult status not long after; the Scion xB scooted off in 2015; the Nissan Cube collapsed in 2014. Although sales are down from the six-figure sales of 2011 to 2018 in the U.S., dealers have found new homes for around 60,000 units in each of the past two years, so the Soul isn't out of the game yet, but Kia seems to have left the model line on cruise control. Other than a refresh for the 2023 model year, we cover the subcompact once every 12 months when the new model year arrives. So here we are again with a near repeat of last year's news ("2024 Kia Soul MSRP up by $100, EX trim adds Designer Package").
