2021 Hyundai Palisade — is this actually a good used-car deal?

If I were shopping this, i would not wire money until I've seen the 2021 Hyundai Palisade and the title situation in person or via a trusted PPI. That's the part that actually changes the decision. No need to make it theatrical. I've seen both outcomes, which is why I'd test instead of assume. If they only talk monthly I'm walking.

Compare apples to apples or you'll get spun. Keep sale price, trade, and financing split on the 2021 Hyundai Palisade so a “good payment” cannot bury a worse deal. Do that before you talk monthly again. Any freeze-frame data saved? Not trying to scare you — just skip the expensive first guess. Sleeping on the number either way.

I asked about is this actually a good used-car deal again and they still won't put GAP/add-ons on their own lines. Not wiring anything in the meantime.

Get the messy numbers in writing first. Keep sale price, trade, and financing split on the 2021 Hyundai Palisade so a “good payment” cannot bury a worse deal. If they balk, that's your answer. On “is this actually a good used-car deal,” that was the fork that mattered for me. If it doesn't change the out-the-door or the repair estimate, it's noise. If GAP is bundled I'm making them unbundle it.

Update from me: I finally have sale price, fees, and trade on separate lines for the 2021 Hyundai Palisade. This is the version I'd tell a friend.

I would not stare at the monthly. I would not wire money until I've seen the 2021 Hyundai Palisade and the title situation in person or via a trusted PPI. Screenshot the worksheet if you can. No need to make it theatrical. That's coming from doing this as an owner, not a shop. Not wiring anything in the meantime.

Hard-won lesson from my last deal: A written buyer’s order on the 2021 Hyundai Palisade is worth more than any verbal “we’ll make it work.” If they balk, that's your answer. On “is this actually a good used-car deal,” that was the fork that mattered for me. Did the worksheet show tax yet? I asked for the buyer’s order in email, not a text.
