After Hertz’s full-scale EV adoption plan resulted in its fleet of new Tesla Model 3s getting abused by rideshare drivers and renters alike, Hertz is selling off a portion of its fleet for wildly cheap prices. Before you go snatch up these electrified bargains, keep in mind that Hertz is jettisoning these Model 3s due to their frequency of faults and high repair costs when damaged. Aside from that warning, if you’re looking for an affordable and usable preowned EV, check out Hertz because these admittedly high-mileage Model 3s are listed for sale between $20,000 and $25,000. - Logan Carter Read More

Let’s cut right to the chase: buying a used Maserati is not a good idea unless you have deep enough pockets for the upkeep. For those not in the know, they’re sirens. They draw you in with their premium Italian image and sweet songs of “I’m cheap! Buy me!” and then go in for the kill once someone pulls the trigger, whether by way of $400 oil changes, $1,200 brake jobs, or something much worse. - Lawrence Hodge Read More

The Toyota 4runner (and Tacoma) have a death grip on used values. It’s been this way for years. Go ahead, go try and buy any TRD trim that’s a couple of years old; it’ll cost you as much as a new one — not that you could buy a new one at that price anyway because they’re likely marked up. One generation of 4Runner, though, has pricing in some places that borders on naked greed. - Lawrence Hodge Read More
