Hi, Im looking to buy a Stinger and am in between 2 cars, both 18 models.

Premium: 35k odo at 22.5k GT1: 55k odo at 25k

To my understanding the main difference would be the V6 vs 2.0T engine and while Im not that big into speed I heard good things about the V6 engine of KIA/Hyundai while the Theta engines have a pretty bad rep early on and I experienced it 1st hand with my Sonata 11. So is the engine on the 2.0T better than my old engine or I just need to play it safe and pay more for the V6?

Appreciate the feedbacks

Good evening, I'm hoping I can get some good advice.

I'm looking to pick up a minivan to do courier work from gigs and other route work. Which vans should I be on the lookout for? I would want one with as much a payload capacity as possible.

Budget is $4500 but I can do $5k if needed.

Thank you for any answers in advance.

Horse hauling Recommendations?

I’m on the hunt for my first truck to haul my horse with!

I know nothing about diesel trucks especially older ones.

Please give me your best recommendations for search on Facebook Marketplace place for good deals!!

Some general info:

-I am located in East TN

-this truck will only be used for hauling purposes. It will only be pulling a 3H trailer at most. I would heavily prefer a truck that has the gooseneck ball in the bed so I can get a gooseneck trailer and not a bumper pull.

-my horse is pretty small he’s 14.1hh probably 950lbs. I’ll be getting another appy or a mule so nothing massive.

-I’ve been told to look for a F250 7.3L. I’m seeing a lot with high mileage on the early 2000s models from marketplace. How many miles is too much?

-I’m open to any brand. What are the comparables to the F250 7.3L in dodge, Chevy, and GMC?

• is there anything (years, models, repair potential red flags) I should completely stay away from?

Looking to replace my wife’s failing car.

2-3 year old vehicle

Current short list is

Kia- Telluride Acura - MDX Toyota - Highlander or Grand Highlander Mazda - CX 90

Priorities are reliability, modern tech features, good for hauling kids/pets and groceries.

Do any of these stand out from the rest? Which cars are we missing? Would like to keep drive out price around $40K

I am 6'5 and I have 2 kids who will be in the back with car seats. So I need a lot of headroom and a lot of space all the way from the 2nd row seat to the pedals. A lot of the evs seem to have very low headroom.

We were super excited for the Kia Ev9 but we sat in it and my wife thought the seats were uncomfortable. I'm wondering if wanting a comfortable roomy electric SUV for under $70k is just me being too picky.

I currently drive a 2020 Ford Escape , it’s fine but I have concerns about the reliability of the car (multiple trips to the dealer for issues in the last year). So I am casually in the market for a new (or new to me) car.

I’m currently toying with the idea of getting a hybrid as I drive 300-350 miles a week minimum and gas is expensive. I drove the CRV hybrid and didn’t like it. I also drove the rav4 XLE hybrid and like that one much more. I’m happy to buy the rav4 but I just saw that Subaru is releasing a Forester hybrid for 2025.

The main point of this is: should I keep my car (it’s paid off), get a rav4 hybrid or wait to get the Subaru? I’m also open to other SUV opinions with in the price range of Toyota, Honda, etc.

Thanks in advance.

Recently came across this car in my search for a new car to trade my current one in for. It’s a 2006 Toyota RAV4 Base trim. $12,995 at 32k miles. What should I know about this car? Any recalls, issues, how easy is it to maintain, how cheap are repairs, etc?

The car looks like it’s in good condition. No reported damage or accidents.

Yes, a minivan is the answer to this question. However, wife is on the fence about it due to IIHS safety and the "minivan look". However, my remedy to that was renting a minivan for our upcoming vacation to potentially show the major pros. Therefore, I AM NOT LOOKING FOR MINIVAN ANSWERS/FEEDBACK.

In my pursuit to find an alternative. What are some of the best mid-size or full-size SUVs for my current situation?

Current situation:

AWD/ $35k max budget

Family of 5 - 3 kids under 5.

Don't really care about any fancy features like heated steering wheels, seats, etc. Maybe just Apple Carplay.

Drive roughly 1.5 hours a day for work so MPG is important. (currently driving a 21/31 mpg car)

Kids are only in my specific vehicle maybe 20-30 mins a day, so fluently getting into a 3rd row isn't too much of a concern.

Thought process:

1. 2019-2020 toyota highlander xle hybrid (biggest pro would be mpg for drive time)

2. 2019-2020 honda pilot elite (biggest pro would be 3rd row access/size)

3. 2019-2020 toyota highlander xle (biggest pro in my area, this is the cheapest)

Willing to add additional information if needed, thanks in advance.

Im 18 about to graduate from high school i daily a corolla right now and i have around 15k to buy a car i want my next car to be a fun car which car do you guys recommend i was looking at 2014 mustang gt, 2015 camaro ss, 370z, is350, q50 3.7 i want a sporty car and that isn’t unreliable

Im looking for a mustang under 8k, but i dont know where to start. i will be driving it to work and school, mainly stop and go traffic. i have a couple of questions if anyone can answer them. first of all is, whats the most reliable model and transmission? what engines are the most reliable? how many miles should i be looking at for a used mustang, <150k? and should i be looking for any specific details that could be bad? thanks to anyone who can help!

Looking at a 2016 Toyota RAV4 XLE with 27k miles on it. Has only had one owner and no reported damages. Currently driving a 2011 Ford Fusion SE with 92k miles but having mechanical issues and has some damage to the front bumper however it’s paid off. Any advice? Thanks!

I pay $20 every day for cabs I need a car badly so I don't have to waste my money anymore I just know nothing about cars and have no help, my budget goes up to 7k I just wanna mainly drive to work, gym, grocery store.

I noticed that the VW Jetta is actually quite affordable compared to most cars on the market today. Price seems around the same ballpark as the Nissan Altima and Kia K5. How's the reliability of the last few model years of the VW Jetta?

Hi there,

I'm looking to buy my first car soon and have been looking constantly for the past week as I need to start commuting to work relatively soon.

I'm looking for something reliable, preferably cheap, capable of handling mean winters/northern ontario, reasonable mpg, ideally something that I can camp in if need be.

I have been to see a couple of cars that I like: 3rd Gen (2003-2008) Subarus (my favourite), a couple 2010-2013 Subaru Outbacks, a RAV4 and a Scion xB.

I like certain things about each one, but making a decision as to which one will suit my needs is so hard.

Based off the cars I've mentioned, what would you guys think would be the most reliable, reasonable MPG, and outdoor accessable car, or please suggest some alternatives in the same vein as these!

Thanks

I'm looking for a car for my 17 year old son, and I saw this one at my local dealership. (Very good shop; this would be my 4th car through them.) It would mostly be a commuter car for him, but I'd like to get a few years out of it.

Carfax says 1 owner, no accidents, but I'm a little anxious about the 150k mileage. I'm a Mazda gal, and wouldn't hesitate if it was that brand. Are Subarus as bombproof?

Hi! Im about to buy a car from enterprise and was wondering if anyone can give me a friends & family discount! Thanks

Hello, I am thinking of buying an used Audi A6 Limousine 45 TDI 231hp 2020(coming from an Audi A3 Sportback 2014).

The car was bought from Audi and serviced only in the official Audi dealership in my country(I am based in Europe) and has a full service history which showed some problems with the AdBlue system and a few other problems such as the fuel pump being replaced, some pipes being replaced and a few electrical/infotainment problems.

The car currently is on 75k km. and has nice features such as air suspension, matrix headlights, 360 cameras, B&O sound system etc. and of course the ZF 8HP transmission.

The price is around 37.5k euros and I am wondering if I should go ahead and buy it. The car has an official warranty until the end of this year. Any pros and cons that I should be aware of ?

What would be the better choice for a car enthusiast to drive year-round in Canada (Southern Ontario)? I have driven both cars and found both to be enjoyable. I would love to hear your suggestions as to which one you would choose and why to help me decide. I don’t necessarily need the extra room in the GTI, but it would be nice to have. I do worry about the practicality of RWD in the snowy months. I don’t plan on modifying either beyond an exhuast or tracking them.

I'm trading in my 2021 Hyundai Kona after having constant oil consumption issues once I hit 18K miles, don't feel like waiting 3 months for a new engine when it will probably go out again on me after a couple years anyways. Also my battery just died at 24k miles ( under warranty thankfully!). So I want out of this car asap.

I want to stick to subcompact SUVs. I like the look of the 2023 HRV Sport, but I'm also considering the Mazda CX5. If anyone has any preferences/ during opinions between the two I'd love to hear them please and thank you!! I know the hrv isn't very powerful, but I'm not sure how much less it is than the CX5 or my current Kona? Power isn't exactly a deal breaker if the hrv is better in every other way though.

Looking at used g20 m340is as a daily driver but I was wondering if I should buy it right now or wait a bit more to purchase or put in more money for the lci version
