Look into, well have your friend have a lawyer look into, Texas's laws on this States generally protect car buyers somewhat more than they do general consumer purchases, but the specific protections vary between states.

Inner Light posted:I forgot the LaCrosse was dead. I wish American makes could compete with entry level German luxury but it appears we simply gave up. Slightly off-kilter take, but what about a CPO Regal Wagon (TourX or whatever foolishness they called out)? Good reviews, some of that Buick soft luxury while at it's heart being the only good opel/Holden in some time.

My first car was a high-mileage 850 wagon. Best case scenario you end up with a lemon. Otherwise you end up One of Us.

If you're prioritizing looks then that may change the calculus slightly. Everything these fine folks have said about the Toyota, Honda, and Mazda crossovers is entirely true. But what are you looking for re: appearance? Is it something square and quirky, is a Kia Soul "not boring"? Would you sacrifice utility for a mini (4 door) or clubman, if you like their look? You've asked for advice but then emphasized your aesthetic preferences, admitting it's "subjective," but haven't talked about what you actually think subjectively looks like what you'd want to own.

KillHour posted:Hyundais and Kias are now good(TM) so feel free to try them if she likes them. Are mostly good now. I still have nightmares about the seven different shades of beige plastic in the center console of my most recent rental sonata. A functionally fine, utterly joyless car.

Ticks all your other boxes, will be rather more fun than a giant dodge on a windy backroad, and it's rwd so you'll have all the traction you need with winter tires on.

Throatwarbler posted:I went to a Toyota dealer today and sat in a new Camry and a new Highlander. I understand they are mechanically well built items but nothing about the experience gave me a compelling reason to upgrade from what I have now. Wife and kids weren't even interested in sitting in them. That's because they're the Toyota Camry and Highlander. They are incredibly well designed, perfectly functional appliances. They are not going to give you any emotional reason to upgrade if your current car is also functional. You did the car equivalent of trying a new vacuum when your old vacuum still works. You do not need this new vacuum.

Does the dog ride in the trunk or in the back seat? Because 1) rear door sill height, 2) rear opening height, and 3) rear opening height with a trunk wide enough to carry a step/ladder/platform are all going to be different measurements, and what the dog is specifically capable of seems to be the determining factor here. Like, should the Kona electric also be on your list? It's p good on (1), but less so on (2) and small enough that (3) would take up a higher proportion of trunk space. Not saying that's the right car specifically, but just that the fine details matter so much here that we can't really be useful without knowing exactly what height is enough or not for pupper.

To make sure I understand you correctly: you want to take a loss on your currently depreciated EV that you seem happy enough with operating to have a loan on another, also to depreciate, EV? Why?

remigious posted:Dealerships also put a sticker on the drivers side window to indicate that there is an engine immobilizer in place, but not sure how much of a deterrent that is to thieves in the dead of night. It’s not, since thieves also know that stickers are cheaper than fixes.

Unsinkabear posted:I (once again) think it's time to trade in my 2013 Accord coupe for something more practical, and if possible I'd like to do it without acquiring a car payment. Is Carvana still a fair-enough exchange option for people who know nothing about the dealership minigame? You’ll overpay a bit over what a private seller would expect, and there are horror stories about them having awful backend issues with things like actually delivering title, but they deliver a car to your door and you can get a proper mechanic to do an inspection within the return period. It’s paying more money to avoid doing work, but then there’s the long-tail risk of title shenanigans.
