Hi Scotty. Thanks for all your advice. I have followed you for a long time and worked on my own cars by listening to you. I have a question.
My sister had a Toyota sienna van that just got totalled by hitting a deer. She got 7400 from the insurance company. She wants to downsize but would like to get a SUV. She wants to stay around 10,000. We went and looked at a 2013 Mazda cx5 fwd with 109,000 on it. It's been in 2 wrecks according to Carfax. The first one it was in a fender bender on the passenger rear right side. The second time it was hit on the middle of the side on the passenger side. We test drove it today and it drives smooth. The dealer wants 10,999 for it. He said she could let her mechanic look it over. Is it worth buying something that's been in 2 wrecks. If so is it worth 10,999? Is there another SUV she should look at?  The SUV is listed on Ohio car mart LLC in Elyria ohio. Thanks
