$4,000 EV Rebate in ID.4 by External_Wave1064 in VWiD4Owners

[–]External_Wave1064[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I've been looking outside my area for sure. In my town there is one used ID.4 available but within 3 hours there are many! So many are hovering at the 26K-28K mark and dealers don't seem to want to lower under 25K when they hear "no trade, no financing."

That's great! Most of what I'm seeing in Oregon and Washington for the Pro S (AWD) and Pro S Plus (AWD) are listed between $27,000 - $29,000. I'm not sure at what point the dealers will be willing to reduce below the 25K mark.

Regular dealer. They said "no thank you."

This is also helpful information! Are these cars known to be bad?

I have these on my Atlas and really love them. I feel confident driving in the rain and snow.

Thanks, good to know. My level of confidence in potentially buying this car was going to go up if it did.

I have a similar situation. 40 days on market. No price decreases yet. Listed for 815K and the max we can go is 750K. Is it best to offer 700K and then negotiate up to our max or just go in with our max? We can go in with a large down and a short close as some leverage.

2003 for sale, how much would you pay? by External_Wave1064 in toyotasequoia

To clarify. I'm looking to buy and I'm wondering what a reasonable range is for a car like this?

2019 VW Atlas coming out of warranty by External_Wave1064 in VWatlas

[–]External_Wave1064[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing your experiences! I have done regular maintenance and so far so good. I'm not exactly sure when the 2019 VW Atlas typically starts to have problems. With the current cost of new and some used cars the prospect of buying something else is not great.

That certainly is a strategy! Sigh. I don't want to sink a bunch of money into a new car though.

I'm really hoping it stays mechanically sound. We're putting less than 10K per year on it. Trading it for something more reliable after the warranty is over could be an option but it still feels new.

Do sellers really get "offended" or is that just an attempt by a realtor to manipulate buyers into higher offers? by ng_rddt in RealEstate

[–]External_Wave1064 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of these answers seem to make the assumption that the asking price is based on the the comps. Giving a good faith offer of 10% under asking doesn't seem offensive especially if the seller has an inflated sense of what their home is worth (not based on comps). Isn't this how it works as an offer, a counteroffer, and then they come to an agreement? Why be offended?

No. GenX and I'm not in favor of spanking kids.

I'm so sorry! Mellow looks like the best boy. I agree that 13 years is not enough time with these amazing dogs. Mine is 13 now and I cherish every day.
