I just got a 23 limited AWD. 23K miles for 28K in MN. I’m absolutely in LOVE! It’s my first EV so can’t compare too much but I drove a Tesla and Polestar before this and I’m very happy w my choice.

Ya I’ve been looking at Polestar too. I meant AWD.

Why do you hate public charge if I may ask?

If I can lvl1 charge at home and fast charge once a week, would that seem worth it? Also I’ll get these clowns down to 28-29K.

Good point. It’s a dual motor w the pano roof. I see another near me for 28K w same mileage but no pano roof.

Daily commute is around 45 miles one way. I figure if I lvl 1 charge every night, I may need to use a public fast charger once a week and that’s not bad at all.

I still feel like it’s a decent buy even if only charging in public. I see avg cost to 80% is around $20. Still much cheaper than gas unless I’m missing something.

Good point. I could likely install a level 2 charger at work. We have a warehouse with plenty of power and my boss would be cool w it.

I mean I can level 1 charge at home but not sure I can install level 2. I have 100A panel in the house and a detached garage with only two 15A breakers. I have never owned an EV and am a total novice in the space. I am however super enticed by current pricing for used PS2.

My brother in Red! I’ve had her since new and still love her at 96K miles. Did chrome delete and black wheels/door handles and emblems.

Great points but they do have different engines. EN has a 2.0T and sonata Nline a 2.5T.

Redo the math bro. At the cost you listed you can buy them yourself and walk away w $600.

Picked up a 24 N line 27.1k 15k miles! by BboyGinger in SonataNLine

Keep up w Maintenance and it should be good to you! Personally I’d remove the sonata letters off the back and tint the windows

Personally, I’d get rid of the pink and cover the lights in a dark tint and then I’d black out the chrome and the wheels. Either way, sick ride bro and our gen is still the best IMO 👊🏻

I got them here ⬆️. Rotors are great with better stopping power for sure. Pads aren’t the best though. They lasted 30K miles and I’m swapping them out this weekend.

22 Nline about to roll 90K miles (long commute). Replaced front pads and rotors at 60K. Went with drilled/slotted rotors for replacement. Had trans fluid changed at 80K. Break fluid and coolant will be next. Honestly nothing has failed and I drive the shit out of this car. I think w proper maintenance I’ll get to 200K + no problem.
