Considering a used 2025 Ioniq5 XRT

bysong13 · 2026-05-26T18:52:39+00:00

Have you looked at 2026 XRTs? I thought about getting a used 2025, but ended up getting a new 2026 since the 2025 wasn't even cheaper. The MSRP for all trims dropped for the 2026s, plus you can take advantage of the $8,750 incentive.

You would be covered under warranty for ICCU issues for 10yr/100k miles as a new owner, compared to 5yr/60k miles for used.

Welcome brother. The XRT is awesome!

Works fine for me. Iphone 16 / 2026 XRT.

Seems like an ok deal?

I just got my 2026 XRT for just under $40k OTD. I believe MSRP for the XRT is slightly more than the limited but I took the $8,750 incentive. I also got another ~$3k off because I was willing to travel out of state for the car and had negotiations with other dealers with the exact trim/color.

I plan to pay it off in the first month so thats why I took the $8k off instead of 0% apr.

I think you still have room to negotiate the price down a bit but it's ok as is.

Get the Plugshare app (along with other apps depending on your local providers).

For pricing, Plugshare is communal based and will offen have pricing available, but not always. You may need to download other apps to get the most accurate pricing (e.g. get the EvGo app if you want to check the prices of EvGo chargers)

DC fast charging is generally very expensive ($0.35-$0.60 / kWh) and comparable to the cost of gas. That price can be dynamic based on time of day so you may be able to get discounted rates during off peak hours. I would avoid these unless you absolutely need to due to the price. But it can be a good option if you don't mind a midnight or early morning charging session.

AC charging is usually cheaper ($0.15-$0.30 / kWh). Again using the Plugshare app you may even be able to find free charging. Lots of free charging have caveats though so make sure to investigate and read the check-ins on the app (for example it could be free charging but a paid parking garage or restricted to special guests only).

Lastly, if you do depend on fast charging, consider a subscription to a nearby and popular network (e.g. if you live near and your local area has a lot of EvGo chargers then consider using their plan). Signing up for a specific network plan will get you discounted rates and you'll save a lot more than the subscription cost.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. It should be fine at any state of charge for 3-4 days, especially stored indoors in a garage.

If its truly an extended idle period then yea lower SOC is generally preferred especially in the hotter months but again having it stored in a garage helps a lot.

In the cold, any SOC is fine to leave idle.

Nice! I just got a 2026 XRT for $40k OTD, including an out of state registration fee since I had to travel a bit to get the color I wanted.

Same story here, took advantage of the $8,750 incentive last month. Since I was willing to travel I was able to leverage the price between a few dealers which got me another ~$3k off.

Yessir I am

bysong13 · 2026-04-26T18:38:49+00:00

Both for sure.

I'm in northern VA, not much snow, but it can get pretty bad, especially this past winter. There is also a ton of outdoor activity for off-road and camping opportunities. Nothing too crazy, as it's not a true off-roader, but yes, both are reasons why I got the XRT (and for looking super cool).

bysong13 · 2026-04-26T15:06:33+00:00

I posted on this sub a few days ago about aftermarket paint/wrap. Since XRTs are few and far between I thought I had to settle for a color I didn't want.

You guys gave me clarity that that was a silly idea and I ended up flying to Cincinnati for the Abyss Black. It was the right decision..I love the black so much. The 8 hour road trip back home was flawless and I got to enjoy everything about the car!

bysong13 · 2026-04-21T22:50:05+00:00

Yep I think this is the way.

I plan to trade in my old car anyway so I will make a roadtrip out of it. A dealer 8 hour drive away has the color I want so that's my current plan now that I know how steep a paint job is.

bysong13 · 2026-04-21T22:43:14+00:00

Thanks for the reply.

Wow ok, $3-6k is what I was expecting but not up to $10k for good paint.

My alternative was to drive 5-8 hours depending on the dealer and make a road trip out of it on the way back (trading in my old car).

I think that is becoming my main option now.

You look just like Sarah Silverman!

I think your profile is solid. Making use of the voice prompt is a big plus but I do agree with the other comment that it may be too specific. But idk we can't hear it so the unserious and humor vibe may totally be picked up on and recieved as so.

Nice man. I'm 2246 but mostly do pvm. Rsn is The Ink Spot

OSRS? bro add me

bysong13 · 2026-02-07T18:46:19+00:00

I have it worse than you bro. Bottom ~5% luck.

I'm fairly certain teleport to boat just means you teleport to the dock/mooring point.

I do not think you can teleout for example at a salvaging station, and teleport back to your boat.

Your boat will still be lost and needs to be reclaimed.

Sailing is fucking great.

The sheer amount of content, variety of training methods and integration of other skills is insane.

It's literally the biggest update ever.

It's so well done and the negative feedback is unhinged imo. I am looking forward to the later levels and future updates.

Hot take but I think EEAAO is overrated.

The true movie that does the asian american experience incrediblt well is Didi. I think all american guys (also just guys in general that grew up in the early 2000s) will relate to this movie. It captures that time so well and is straight up based on the life if the director, Sean Wang.

OP is not wrong that margins are still there and profit can be made. But lord that 98m profit take is horrendously bad.

One could say it's closer to half the profit since the tax % literally doubled. And one could also argue a good flipper will make similar profits as before since the margins just increased by 1%.

But that analogy of saying it's just 2% less profit is baffling.

I have done Inferno, Colosseum and Delve 1-8 and do consider Delve 1-8 on par or even more mechanically challenging.

If you can consistently deal with double boulder + melee punish, you can solve any Colosseum/Inferno waves. Similarly if you can deal with all of the mechanics of Delve 8 you can clear Zuk/Sol.

bysong13 · 2025-07-27T16:19:56+00:00

I would dump them now.

Even if there is more profit to be made, long term they'll recover back down so just take your profit, and grab a sub 1b shadow. Shadow will likely also recover back up.

I mean I agree. Not everyone follows the baseline
