Having watched your videos, I've decided to take your advice and go for a used Highlander.
I am looking at a 2008 Highlander sport 4WD, V6, with 63K miles (has Carfax) at a "no haggle" dealership for $12.4K. 5 day return/refund policy. Per your advice I'll not rely on the Carfax and will take it to a mechanic to check out. If mechanic gives it a green light, did I receive a fair deal in your view? Or, should I reconsider. Love your videos!
It's good but that seems expensive. Get a mechanic to check it out because Toyota's get neglected and people dont change the oil so they burn oil sometimes with low miles but if it does not and mechanic says its fine, then go ahead. Just realize that is normal prices here where I am in CA but in Houston it could be very expensive. Just depends on what you want and where.
