Buying a used car from NuCar usually means it has a 30-day warranty on all "safety items" or something. Bought a 2017 Subaru a few years ago and NuCar did an excellent job replacing the ac compressor about two weeks after the sale.
Used cars can have hidden problems like electric or wheel bearings or timing belts that show up through day to day driving after the sale and a 30-day warranty replacement issue by buying from a huge NuCar local car dealer is smart benefit.

When I went looking for cars when my kids turned 16 and started driving it was more about safety than it was price. Today 6 or 7k is a good place to start I think.

CR-V owners club ..... http://www.crvownersclub.com/threads...-risky.230133/ ..... trying to think of something intelligent to say here?
How's about "personal opinions are cheap, while repairing an old Honda or any car is expensive!"

So he can buy a new car, he'll take $2000 (maybe less) for his 2015 Honda Civic with 240K miles. Maintained well. Heck, this kind of money can be spent on a minor repair! It's not the 2001 Honda CRV I opined "best used car" earlier, but it's a shiny light gray finish, and the entire engine bay has that "new" look. Send me a PM with your phone/preferred contact.information, or I'll buy it and charge the next buyer $3000!

Heavy, low, and slow (and in good condition) is the best vehicle. I like the Forrester idea. The other thing to consider is giving them your current car or your wife's, and trading up |
