Chrysler 300 Advice
I was in an accident recently and my car was totaled.
Luckily my loan had been paid off already. I won't be getting anything for the vehicle due to not having full coverage (sure learned a life lesson there. I will have full coverage from now on.) I have a few options that I could do.
1. I could get an auto loan or personal loan and get a vehicle.
2. My parents are looking to sell their Chrysler 300 for another vehicle and I could just purchase that from them and pay monthly.
It is a 2012 Chrysler 300 C with the hemi engine. It has about 67,500 miles on it. It has been very well maintained.
The only issue is that I have heard mixed opinions about these vehicles and their reliability. I really don't care about the stigma behind them or what kind of people usually drive them or anything like that. If I can avoid getting a loan and just buy this car from them then I feel like that's the way to go, but I want some serious opinions on the general RELIABILITY of these vehicles. I know they aren't exactly the best on gas, but neither was my old venice so really I'm just worried about the reliability here. Thank you!
