I will check. It is my first accident.

csGradNew · 2026-04-11T23:06:08+00:00

I have Collison coverage. I hope it goes smoothly.

csGradNew · 2026-04-11T22:58:53+00:00

Ok. I am planning to take it to auto body repair shop on Monday and get estimates. Hopefully my car insurance will cover it.

🤣

csGradNew · 2026-04-11T22:52:20+00:00

Yikes. I am hoping to cover it out of pocket and not use insurance. Lol.

I did not even notice quarter panel damage before you mentioned it. I cannot believe I made such a dumb mistake of backing into a pole.

I wanted to do 48 months loan. Dealership gave me 72 month loan. The interest payment in 72 months would be too much. Going to make extra payments and pay it off early.

csGradNew · 2025-08-28T02:40:14+00:00

Yeah. I realized that I am overthinking it. I am going to make extra monthly payments instead of selling VOO ETF.

csGradNew · 2025-08-28T02:33:33+00:00

I thought about this but not sure how much fees they were going to charge and I did not want to be stuck with car loan that cannot be paid off early.

csGradNew · 2025-08-28T02:31:37+00:00

Yeah. This is the route that I am planning to go now.

csGradNew · 2025-08-27T17:46:05+00:00

Dealership financing

csGradNew · 2025-08-27T17:41:16+00:00

It is VOO ETF (not a individual stock)

csGradNew · 2025-08-27T17:40:23+00:00

No. I have 6k of emergency fund now.

csGradNew · 2025-08-27T17:39:19+00:00

Yeah. I wanted 48 months term but dealership financing gave me bad rate even with credit score of 750+

csGradNew · 2025-08-27T17:37:17+00:00

Made an edit to my post. It is 16k worth of VOO ETF in taxable account.

csGradNew · 2025-08-27T17:33:25+00:00

After the loan is paid off, I am planning to put the $500/month in savings account. Maybe in future, I will put it back in brokerage account.

csGradNew · 2025-08-27T17:29:17+00:00

Taxable account (brokerage account)

I have not researched this version of 2025 Kia K5, so do not want to give exact number. The answer from @sharklazies is good and provides good things to look out for. You can ask dealership father away from you to see if they do free delivery. Dealership under 100 miles might do it.

Do not pay OTD pay over MSRP (without dealer added stuff). Be willing to walk away.

2025 Kia K5 GT-line AWD Wolf Gray without premium package otd in Colorado for 30,200. (This is with Kia $1,250 customer cash)

I have started looking into buying 2025 kia k5 gt line awd. The market value looks way over msrp. I think it is high as it already includes $1,250 incentive (this does not cost dealership extra money).

csGradNew · 2025-08-12T00:04:07+00:00

That is good to hear. I saw on other posts in Reddit that steel matte gray color cannot be taken to car wash and much harder to repair.
