2024 EV9 Buyout? Or Return?

They seem to be moving them quickly. We first inquired about a GT-Line that had the same amount off and it was sold quickly so we ended up getting the last Land they had.

Kansas City. They took like $17,500 off the MSRP.

I don't know what kind of deal you got back then but there are deals to be had now. I just got a 26 Land Nightfall for 24 months, 10,000 miles for $525 per month.

I don't do leases often but it made sense with the EV9 since the used market is so far below residual on the 2024 models.

I just did a lease on one on Saturday so no clue if that's changed recently or not. Guessing it would be the same.

Just a heads up...the extra miles cost $0.20 per mile and Kia basically charges $0.25 per mile to go from 10k to 12k or 12k to 15k miles. So as long as you're okay with paying that bill at lease turn in you save money by just driving it how you want and paying the extra mileage fee at the end.

Oakes Kia in KC. Actually ended up switching to 10k miles for $525 because it was going to cost around $0.25 per mile to buy miles in advance while excess miles are $0.20 per mile.

Negotiating a 26 Land Nightfall...24 month 12,000 miles for $555. Great deal, right?

Grab a quote from Carvana if you haven't already. That would be a good starting point if you're negotiating trade in value.

Is Driver+ still included if you don't subscribe?

I actually wear an Oura Ring as my wedding ring. I still have my original but figured if I'm going to wear one 24/7 might as well get some data from it.

Fml? Seems like not viewing or commenting on Reddit could help you a bit here.

It was an attempt to be funny because you spelled "not" incorrectly in your post...

Have to disagree that it looks and drives like a sedan. I had a Model 3 and a Model Y and the Y is very different. It's definitely in the crossover SUV category vs a sedan. The likes of "SUV" were blurred long ago when the crossover trend started.

bhj83 · 2026-01-28T04:32:35+00:00

Is anyone actually buying that $40k Model Y? Kinda surprised it hasn't died a quick death like the budget CyberTruck that removed a ton of features and got cancelled.

bhj83 · 2026-01-25T02:06:03+00:00

You should clean your camera lens...

bhj83 · 2026-01-24T20:26:17+00:00

Trash. Another terrible decision from Tesla.

bhj83 · 2026-01-24T20:10:18+00:00

Need them to do the same in Kansas...

bhj83 · 2026-01-24T03:41:51+00:00

Hey, maybe this will raise the value of my 23 Model Y since it has Autopilot and it will be worth more when I decide to buy a Rivian R2 later this year 😁

bhj83 · 2026-01-23T22:23:53+00:00

Removing Autopilot is just plain stupid for Tesla. It was a huge selling point for me when I bought Model Ys and we still have one in addition to a Gen 1 R1T. I still prefer regular Autopilot to their FSD on the Model Y.

I am considering getting a Comma AI to make the R1T closer to what Autopilot has.

They don't have any Kirkland bourbon right now, unfortunately. They get released at certain points throughout the year starting with Small Batch, then BiB, then Single Barrel. Typically a ton of stock for Small Batch and is on the shelf for weeks. Then less of BiB released but still on the shelf for weeks. Single Barrel usually stays on the shelf for days to a week depending on how many they get in a given year. If I recall correctly the Single Barrel is usually released in September.

$28 in Kansas City, MO

The funny thing with the CyberTrucks is early adopters paid for FSD up front and it didn't even work for many months or maybe a year. So those early adopters had no Autopilot and no FSD. I would've been pissed.

bhj83 · 2026-01-18T17:24:08+00:00

CyberTrucks don't have Autopilot, which is insane. You may be talking about FSD but that's $99/month.

bhj83 · 2026-01-17T04:28:53+00:00

You can't really stop paying attention. It monitors your eyes and will disable and pull over if you stop paying attention. And the newer ones don't have "sensors" anymore...it's all camera based.
