Being car poor and house poor isn't being poor.

Home owners and/or people getting brand new cars every 2-3 years have decent incomes and if you fall into one of these two groups while considering yourself poor, it's because you're overspending not because you don't have enough income to meet the bare minimum for survival. Those are the people who are poor.

Furthermore, in your original comment you talked about poor people not having anywhere to charge their vehicle and now you're telling me you meant homeowners who bought too much house for their income while also owning a brand new car? Give me a break. I'm sure you can find an extra $500 to have a charger installed.
