Took delivery and I have had it for a week now. I am very satisfied with my experience with Carvana. The car is about as close to new as you can get. I am going to have the paint hand detailed. Clay bar to remove the old wax, water spots and general dirt that are baked into the surface. Minor swirling, abd a few scratches buffed, etc. It looks new from a few feet away but up close inspection reveals that it needs this treatment.
It will be a nice vehicle to drive to PA, Jon's party in NY, and Maine later this month.

This is making me a little frustrated. The attempt at fixing my GMC has failed, and we are at an impasse in buying a new car or investing yet more to try and fix the issue.
At the heart of the impasse? Next aJune, Karla’s Pilot is paid off and then I was supposed to get my mid-life crisis car. I’m thinking I will have to find a decent but older used car that will retain a fair amount of trade value next year... But that’s going to take more time to find…

250K miles? It's new car time.
We decided for our daughter to keep the Terrain for a while longer, with the caveat that if she drives anywhere significantly across the desert from Vegas she rents a newer vehicle. We instead used the money to pay off some of her student debt.
Her career has been somewhat of a roller coaster. She got written up by her petulant CEO in April for an issue that was really due to his conflicting instructions. After that another PM quit, then the HR guy of two months quit without notice. No one can find the reprimand letter in her file.
She then inherited a very large cruise ship project and led the FAT (facility acceptance testing) with all the cruise line bigwigs and aced it. I think it's the first time the CEO got to actually see her in action. Now she's the golden girl and just got a multimillion-dollar project with a major venue in NYC. And a very significant raise. Things are looking good.
