Round #1234 of this topic.
Requirement: Large sedan, bigger the better. I spend almost 3 hours a day in car and drive about 130 miles a day. Gas mileage of 26-28mpg minimum. Regular gas preferred.
Two teenage kids who are growing.
Drive in Florida along flat (well of course it's flat) roads. No snow or wintry weather requirements.
Looking at Certified Pre Owned vehicles in the 2013-2015 year range. I put almost 35k a year on a car and I don't need to eat up first 40% of depreciation.
Main family hauler is GMC Yukon.
Considering- Toyota Avalon, Buick Lacrosse, Hyundai Genesis, Lexus ES350.
Lexus seems like obvious choice but finding them is difficult. People hold on to them for a reason.
Out of the running- Acura TL, Subaru Legacy, Mazda6, Chrysler 300, Ford Fusion, Checy Impala and Hyundai Sonata.
For those who are shaking their heads like WTF?, wrap it up and don't have kids. For those who are laughing like you've been through this decision, I proudly enter the club of pimp mobiles. I would buy a Roadmaster or Delta88 if they were still for sale.
