Carvana

Carvana is a problem.

I think they say they have 27,000 cars listed, and I figure if 1% are convertibles, that would be 270, more choices than I usually have.

And indeed it found me a lot of Miatas, a Camaro (a model I'd like probably but have ignored) and some others.

I want to exclude some makes, but when I chat, the chatbox talked to me about picking a color. Three times. When I asked for a human, it said yes, but none ever came on, twice.

I've pretty much lost interest in them. A shame.

Although frankly their listings are cot as complete as Ebay motors. The car I bought that way had about 40 pictures, of everything. Carvana seems to have a few pictures, and they push that they have pictures of any damage. That's good.

I tried it looking for a Toyota Tacoma. It worked fairly well. Firefox browser on a brand new shiny MacBook Air. Did you notice some of the Ebay vehicles were from Carvana? Ebay's vehicles were all listed as local pickup.

I haven't needed to look at ebay for 3 or 4 years. Local pickup because Carvana trucks them in, AFTER you pay for them???

I participate in an auto forum. A few guys bought cars from Carvana and they seem to be satisfied enough with them. Problems they found were taken care of.
