2021 Hyundai Palisade — dealer keeps discussing monthly payment instead of OTD — anyone dealt with this recently?

OP here. Still looking, but I'm waiting on inspection notes before I send money on the 2021 Hyundai Palisade. I'll update if anything new shows up.

OP update: I got two written quotes on the 2021 Hyundai Palisade and the out-the-door gap is bigger than the ads made it look. I asked for the buyer’s order in email, not a text.

Title status is the whole conversation. Meet at a bank or dealer title office for the 2021 Hyundai Palisade, not a parking lot at night. Then you'll know the next fork. Time, temperature, and whether it's in gear are the notes that actually help a shop. Not trying to scare you — just skip the expensive first guess. Might be overthinking it, but I'd rather overthink than overspend.

Don't get cute with the meetup or the payment. A rushed deposit before you can inspect the 2021 Hyundai Palisade is enough reason to walk. That's where I'd start. Stop there until you know. A day of patience here is cheaper than a wrong part. If the VIN lookup is clean I'm still doing PPI.

Title status is the whole conversation. Independent PPI on the 2021 Hyundai Palisade is cheap insurance versus a seller who “already had a friend look at it.” That's where I'd start. Happy to compare notes if your setup is different. I'll post OTD once I have two apples-to-apples sheets.

Independent PPI on the 2021 Hyundai Palisade is cheap insurance versus a seller who “already had a friend look at it.” I'd do that before spending real money. Happy to compare notes if your setup is different. If the story changes I'll post the new data.

I'd treat this like cash with a paper trail. If the 2021 Hyundai Palisade still shows a lien, coordinate payoff with the lender before any cash changes hands. That's where I'd start. On “dealer keeps discussing monthly payment instead of,” that was the fork that mattered for me. This is from a 2021 Hyundai Palisade in Los Angeles with 45,500 miles. Have you gotten a second quote in writing? If GAP is bundled I'm making them unbundle it.
