Any good reasons to get talked out of a 2013 3.8 genesis? I've searched a bit but can't find anything major. https://www.carfax.com/vehicle/KMHGC4DD4DU238230?sourceSiteId=10&partner=VSN_0

feelix posted:So I drove the tourx and it just didn't feel right. I don't mind the transmission at all, I just felt really uncomfortable and uneasy sitting in it. I think maybe visibility was the problem? I'm pretty bummed, I don't know what else to look at, it was such a perfect car for me on paper. Subaru and VW reliability/repair costs are a turn off so I don't know if I'm down with one of those wagons. Maybe coming from a Fit, I'll never get a level of visibility I'm comfortable with in any wagon so I should suck it up and look at crossovers. The only reason I'm not getting another Fit is that I get leg cramps all the time being 6'4

If I live in NY and want to purchase a rust free 95-01 Ford Explorer what would be one of the least headache inducing ways? Find a non-local dealer with one for sale, purchase, then find auto shipping company? Go to a local dealer and ask them to search? Find someone on craigslist locally that imports them for sale and ask if I can get in on that? I don't know where to start. I AM able to buy a plane ticket somewhere to fly back but I'd rather keep it within a 5-7 hour drive back.

I just miss mine. Besides the rebuilt transmission I needed it was a solid car with the 4.0. It was comfy, brakes were easy to change oil changes were easy. It was old enough that I didn't care about scratches or dents, I liked having space in the back. Only thing that went wrong in the 3 years that wasn't rust related was a coolant sensor. A few I saw: 100k miles for $2,995. 98k miles for $3988 115k miles for $4995 Cage fucked around with this message at 16:48 on Apr 14, 2021 |

Cowslips Warren posted:OK Goons, got a question. In order to avoid being ripped off by the dealer, because going to the dealership is an option but usually not the right one ever, I have an older car, a 99 Honda Accord, and the key fob that came with the vehicle, although I'm not sure if it was factory installed or third party, has started to break. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313&_nkw=PROPLTX+Keyless&_sacat=0 On the Rockledge website I saw they mention PROPLM - Keyless Entry so I googled PROPLM and it looks like PROPLTX might be the model # of the transmitter?

That looks like a stupid material for a seat. You can get a new seat cover for ~$170 and new floor mats for ~$80. https://www.ebay.com/itm/264376553311 Or spend an hour or two in a junkyard to find decent replacements, then spend a little time cleaning it up. It'll look way better than it does right now. I don't know dents or PDR, but might be worth finding someone to see if they can improve it any. If you're just selling to carvana do none of this.

Nitrox posted:Car thieves break the back window and then immediately fall down the rear seats to access the trunk. You're correct that lack of visibility will lower the chances of a break in, and most SUVs and hatchbacks have a cover for the rear cargo area for this exact reason. Trunks have no advantage in that regard, so it's probably best not to limit yourself to it. So enjoy your lifted crown vic OP!

My dad is going to need a new vehicle soon. He currently has a 2011 Rogue that he had to buy quickly after my brother totaled his car and its a piece of poo poo. He doesn't need much but it has to be easier to get into than a car, so suv or similar. So I guess I'm asking whats the current recommendation for "prius but six inches higher" if we want to stay on the cheaper side of things? edit: he doesn't want Hyundai/Kia because he's afraid of the kia boyz Cage fucked around with this message at 13:30 on Apr 2, 2024 |

He doesn't need suv usefulness or awd, and not good acceleration isn't a big deal. wow your 2nd sentence really changed after editing Yeah I like the envision too bit its just a bit more than he'd want to spend I think.
