I’m glad you too have had good service with CarMax. I’ll never buy another new car......we’ve had to have the dash board replaced on the Avalon on a recall but that’s about it. It’s a dream car.....beautiful to drive but it’s so much easier to get up into a truck and slide out than it is to squat down into the car and pick yourself up to get out especially now that my old joints are blown......sigh.....;)

My dream Car is a Truck, Manual Transmission and windows that you Crank up ... Metal Key (no auto locks) and a radio that has a simple dial

Guess I will have to find an antique

Oh Yeah ... Old Diesel without a computer

yeah, I was over new-cars many years ago

I don’t have to show off my success with new car smell anymore :)

And yeah, I have bench seat in my truck and I like em, easier to get in and out of, and I have 2 laptops, 2 phones, a hard hat, 3 2-way radios and aluminum clipboards spread out wide on the seats, I can’t do that in fancy bucket seats.

We have a Nissan as well (bought pre-certified from the dealer), and getting into and out of it (I’m a big guy and old) can be like crawling into a space capsule. But the car is great, runs great, no fidgety problems like I get with my ford (window buttons and stuff), I mean it’s a great car.

and, like I said, the kids had a great experience at CarMax, if I need a new car, I will go there for sure.
