I also recommend this.

I used to do customer service for one of the "big 3" and the newer cards (this was before the pandemic) all had significantly more transmission and engine problems compared to vehicles even a couple years older. I don't think I will ever purchase a new car. Maybe lease one, but I have heard many horror stories even with leases.
