Did something new today…

I ordered a car used car online from Carvana… This Sunday, Finley and I will be putting a coin into this monstrosity -
and will be driving away in
Frankly, I’ve been all over the dealer network trying different vehicles. I settled on an Infiniti and took it to my mechanic for a pre-purchase inspection. My mechanic found 4 codes on the transmission, an axle boot about to tear, a leaky valve gasket, and
All on a fine looking car that was slightly above Carfax fair value for a car of that age and mileage with no accident (he also found paint on a rim indicating the car was painted after some sort of damage. And this was at a fairly highly rated dealer. I’m afraid to say that it pissed me off.
So, under my mechanic’s recommendation, I ordered a 2016 Hyundai Genesis off of Carvana. It’s got the 3.6 6 cylinder (I can’t stomach a 4. They just feel wrong when I drive them), and it has the features that I was looking for. My mechanic has had good experiences with the Carvana 150 point inspection process, and they offered a good warranty for a very fair price. It doesn’t have the trade value that a Toyota or Honda would offer when I go for my X4 next year, but it looks like it will provide everything else that I’m looking for in the price range that I wanted to spend. Worse comes to worse, I have a 7 day return option. Wish me luck…

Will see on Sunday. I’m actually thinking about moving the pickup time to after dark so it will be all lit up. I think Finley would enjoy that.
