Krdshrk 3,877 Posted July 4, 2020 Looking for a used car - my rusty old minivan is rusting out so I need something to commute to work - so good mileage is a plus... also looking to be able to haul a bit of stuff... so maybe a hatchback or small SUV. Looking to see if anyone has anything available. I'm currently looking at websites, off-rental sales websites, CPO cars, etc. Anyone got anything?

Malsua 1,422 Posted July 4, 2020 I don't have anything for you other than to say you're on the right trail. A friend found a car through Hertz recently for a smoking deal and the car was just fine. Sure, probably driven like hell, but it's fine now, shrug. https://www.hertzcarsales.com/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJJim 37 Posted July 4, 2020 I have this one right now. It's not a van or SUV but a very good car. Former owner was a customer of mine and I serviced it since January 2006. Honda ad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NJJim 37 Posted July 4, 2020 This car has no rust and I think is as good or better than many 5 or 6 year old cars I see. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlDente67 563 Posted August 1, 2020 My kid still has her Jetta for sale: https://www.njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/search/&q=jetta&search_and_or=or Need new brake pads and some paint scuffs repaired (which I was thinking of getting the shop to respray it). Gets great mileage although it isn't a hauler like a small SUV. Still fits a lot of stuff. Also has Weathertec mats back and front. She bought a newer Mazda 3 from Hertz in Hawaii, had it shipped by boat to LA and then took a roadtrip from there to here. I wouldn't have advised going that route, but it had no issues cross-country and looks brand new for a former rental. I'm afraid to ask what she paid, but she has no use for 2 cars and the Jetta just takes up space in my driveway. I think she was asking too much last year and probably would be much more reasonable now. For instance, she refused to include the mats until I explained that they are custom cut for a 2014 Jetta and would not fit any other vehicle quite the same (except another Jetta close to the model year) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
