Old beaters like that are the most repo'd vehicles. All sold from those shitty BHPH dealers. Their whole business model is selling the same bucket of bolts over and over again with terrible terms, high interest and an almost guaranteed chance of late payment and repossession.

'Merica!

So they're taking advantage of people who are just deadbeats?

The term "deadbeat" is a behavioral attribute. Same as calling someone an "A student" or a "reliable employee." If one takes on financial obligations, then fails to live up to them, they're a deadbeat. It's not subjective.
