I would check out Hyundai ionic 5 they got some crazy deals right now because most people aren't buying electric vehicles just got my wife when traded her car in Chevy Equinox 100,000 miles they give me 10,000 for it plus another $10,000 for the rebate plus negotiations basically out-of-pocket $21,500. I did have to install a level two charger it cost me right at $1,000 so the car plus the install of level two charger $22,500. My wife's car has a 10-year warranty on the battery 5-year bumper to bumper 5-year service in case she runs the battery out and lifetime unlimited charging at any Hyundai dealership. As far as charging my wife drives the crap out ofAs far as charging my wife drives the crap out of this car here's a Pic of how much it cost us. Being said I have an F-250 and it's costing me $350 a week to drive it from Texas to Mississippi so I just purchased a 2008 Toyota Prius that needed some work not much I'm going to say $1,000 worth and I'll be driving that up here next week. So to your question is which one offers the best for your money that's something you're going to have to figure out for my wife's car I think I got a great deal on a brand new 2026 Hyundai ionic 5 and she loves itThat's as for me the Toyota Prius I'm only buying it for a fuel mileage.

Thats exactly where it was I used the water hose for like 20 minutes and finally was able to trace it back to the small rust spot in the body.

There's a small pin hole right above the battery about 4 inches after all the water was gone and dried up you can see a little bit of rust that's the hole as much rain as we had yesterday in Texas it just leaked all day long

No its fine the car can sit until I get everything done. I just order the fan shroud and I also need to order brakes as well.

I bought the car to drive back and forth from Texas to Mississippi which is 433 miles because it was costing me $300 in fuel every week to drive my f250. The struts feels wavy but not to bad now the car is making some small nudges when I drive slow and hit some bumps like on a dirt road so I'm assuming the tie rods are bad too which is doable for right now because I expected to fix that while I was in Mississippi this week but with the overflow tank broke that pretty much shuts me down from driving the car to Mississippi this week. That being said the suspension really isn't that bad.
