The Car Shopping Thread
Do you always lease?
The last 2 vehicles have been leased. I prefer to buy/finance for my next vehicle.
I had to laugh at Tesla sending me an email offering to transfer my lifetime free Supercharging if I bought a new Model S, X, or Y. They value my 2015 Model S at $8,300 on trade, not even enough to cover the sales tax and license/registration on a new one.
I can’t even buy a decent golf cart for $8300

I mean... what mileage 400000? SheeshI had to laugh at Tesla sending me an email offering to transfer my lifetime free Supercharging to a new Tesla if I bought a new one. They value my 2015 Model S at $8,300 on trade, not even enough to cover the sales tax and license/registration on a new one.

145,000 miles but Tesla replaced the $15,000 battery 18 months ago under warranty.
Boom, new Car and still has Free SCharge... take that Musk
Looking to "maybe" get a 2015-16 S with Air Suspension (Wife has hard time getting in low Cars) and free S Charge, what kind of miles do you get in 20 min at highest rate before it tapers. I have read all about Software updates that slowed SCharge on these Cars.
I don’t charge often at Superchargers but last time I did I got about 95 miles in 20 minutes. That 95 miles of indicated range is more like 80 miles of range the way I drive and more like 60 miles in the cold of winter. The Tesla charger in my garage adds 56 miles per hour and after 80% charge that rate slows. I don’t take long trips in mine, the longest is 140 miles to our cabin where we also have a charger. One thing I really enjoy is not having to go to the gas station. Every morning I wake up with a full tank.
Hhhhm, so 20 gets you 1:30 of driving...Ouch.

Well we’re officially going to look at a Bronco Big Bend tomorrow. One hit the lot at a pretty nice price point and the dealer called my fiancée and sounded pretty desperate to get her car. Hopefully we can work something out
I leased a 2024 KIA Soul GT line today. Pearl white with all the bells and whistles. Love it.
I've mentioned here before that I would look at one but for me, it's a bit too small. I love the look of it though.
There is a trick says former Corvette owner: Face away from the seat and just sit down. Works wonders. Getting out is another story.

Well the Big Bend we went to see was sold so we went to another dealer to look at an Outerbanks. Long story short, the dealer put us in a decked out version because the one we were interested in wasn’t delivered yet. The fiancée fell in love and we don’t have a deal yet but I think we will end up pulling the trigger.
The OB is damn nice. I have a 2023 with 11,000 miles on it now and love it.

We drove a lesser equipped one at the first dealer and it was whatever but this one was really really nice. It has the gray and blue interior which we both loved as well

We’re about $35/m away from where we want to be which is the very top of our budget. Dealer has not moved , which I get given demand. Going to wait until late Monday and see if they come back to us. If not then there are some decisions to make
Update, talked the wife into a plaid.The Tesla X is ordered. Couldn't talk the wife into the plaid though.

Bought a 2024 Mazda CX-5 Turbo Carbon Edition two weeks ago. Used to be in Procurement and bought dozens of vehicles for our company. Tough to negotiate these days but still have enough skills to get a decent deal.

It was a very busy week which spread into the weekend with life coming at us from all angles. Couldn’t work out a deal on the silver Bronco so we stopped into another dealer that had what we were looking for. Ended up working out a really nice deal and took it home the same day. It blew my mind how difficult it was to find a V6 Outer banks with leather
Test drove a Model X plaid.
I don't think it's possible to get out of that car without giggling a little bit.

I had a chance to test drive the new Ferrari Purosangue yesterday. If your budget is over $500k and you can wait until 2025 to take delivery this may be for you.
It would easily fit 2 golf bags with the back seats down.
