My car has a basically brand-new battery (6 months old) and is currently estimated at 6k or so
The time is here already my guy
What kind?
That's still double the car price. No thanks.
The lie detector determined that... Was a lie!
I'm not paying a potential $6k more after buying a used car.
While my sentence could be worded more clearly, that's a pretty bad reading of what I said.
My car is valued by KBB at ~6k in it's current state.
That current state includes a battery that was replaced under warranty 6 months ago, and is thus basically a brand-new battery, 9 years left on its warranty and everything.
So if something goes wrong with the battery and it isn't directly your fault: it gets replaced for free. The only 6k being spent is the original 6k on the car as a whole
I gotcha, I was talking battery prices so I read it as battery prices. What do you have? A Leaf?
