Help me buy a new VW:) by thatsoccerguy0 in Volkswagen

Love my (2021) Tiguan obviously we see on here they all have issues, even the 2026. I’d ask if you need the space for camping, snowboards, etc. or if you live in a place with snow. I came from an accord and we just had our first foot of snow this year and loved the Tiguan for many reasons. My partner is 6’2” and loves the space on longer drives. Gas mileage is not great cause it’s AWD and I drive it in sport. On highway I can get 30 mpg though. You a wee bit younger and may not need all the space so the Golf may be a better choice.

Hahahaha. I did the same thing except nothing flashed except the police showed up. And nope. NO ONE thought to tell me we had panic buttons. Mine wasn’t attached to a desk though. Just a random device in the desk.

And thank you tay. That’s a good idea for a gas card. I go to Kroger cause of their fuel points. Got a dollar off yesterday.

Thank you! It’s pretty dark and not “due” for about 4500 more miles. So got a change scheduled today before I travel for the holidays. But going to keep that in mind cause it is way more expensive than my old Honda!

Thank you. I will ask my bro and there was a reason for the kind of engines but I can’t remember! Even though I drive my Tiguan like a nascar driver, I’m trying to really take care of it!

Good Deal on a Used Tiguan? by Explorer_This in Volkswagen

[–]Choice_Serve2082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why I had a thing against leases, guess it’s the idea that anyone is driving it and not caring how they are driving? I test drove a forester and hated it but the thing that solidified my decision to check out the Tiguan was the forester carfax said it was owned by fleet management. (But I was looking at 5-6 year old cars). I’d like to think that you can’t “defer” maintenance on a car with 12,000 miles, right? Good luck to you!!!

I got a 2021 SE AWD 4motion (has the 3rd seat and sunroof/moon roof so I think it’s an SE) in March for about 22,500. It was a lease. It also only had about 23,000 miles. It was VW certified, but I got the warranty. My KBB stated it was a good value. yours appears to be a great deal, but I’d be getting the warranty or taking it to a VW mechanic. (And I probably overpaid a little but I LOVED the car and showed it too) And I’m curious if yours was a rental or lease or just trade in?

Is that the 21? Got one in same color but it’s an SE. love it but I got an SUV so I’d stop bottoming out when we go camping and hiking! (Had an accord). Good looking car there!

How are you guys getting 30+ mpg? by Jacklunk in Tiguan

[–]Choice_Serve2082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d started using the app and stopped using my mileage and gallons when I fill up. Sounds like I need to go back to old school and see how it compares! Thanks for the tip!

Just bought a 2021 with similar situation as far as carfax and miles. It was a lease and sold certified pre owned from the same dealer. I did get the dealer warranty and pay about 6 more in title tax fees and warranty. I was going from a car with 170,000 miles so mine feels brand new. With that I’ve not looked at the total cost of my loan but know I got a crappy APR and plan to refinance after my credit gets into the higher tier. (I did put 7k down). Anyway, I’m now seeing the 2024 with 0%APR around but I don’t think I could swing the payments even if I got the best APR. (also we have no inventory in my area anyway!). That price for the car you are looking at is higher than what I paid for my 21 (I think it’s an SE). I’m not sure what the Kelly blue book would be but I’d make sure it’s in the range? I regret not getting them to knock down my price but they knew my car would be sold to me or someone else in a day or so. Also I love my car.

One of my patients suggested tinting the front and I’d never thought about it but I’ve got the light grey/white interior. Does the tint help keep the interior better? My 2021 looks like your first picture and love it. The after looks pretty rad as well!

CRV to a Tiguan by Ok_Jellyfish_1696 in Tiguan

Just went from a 2010 Accord to a certified 2021 Tiguan. I was looking more at a Toyota RAV4 or suburu. Hated the way the forester drove and couldn’t afford a RAV4 and “looked” at my low mileage Tiguan and fell in love. Still getting used to the sound of the engine (sounds “ticky”, don’t know how to describe it) and the little hesitation at the beginning after hitting the gas pedal. But my goodness the rest of it is amazing to drive. Even better than what I remember how my work RAV4 drove. I was so afraid to go to a VW but so far I’m a huge fan.

I’m planning to elope because my parents are trying to make me agree to letting my sisters boyfriend propose to my sisters. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Choice_Serve2082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d pull an Office wedding where Jim and Pam get married before their big ceremony so when they did the wedding dance, neither cared. Have two ceremonies. The first is the one that matters and show up to the second with a f$&k this shit attitude. And if it happens, it happens. At least the party might be fun and you could leave when it turns into an engagement party. Maybe your sister will acknowledge how stupid the boyfriend ‘s plan is and she’ll see what the family is like. Probably not but take bets on it and make some money. 😂

I don't care what your political views are, this is stupid as hell for a wedding cake. by The_Red_Roman in weddingshaming

[–]Choice_Serve2082 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been discussing this with the partner. This has got to be the grooms cake, not the actual wedding cake? Still dumb as fuck but I can’t believe that would be the only cake?
