Thanks.

I love the car. But I was gifted a Chevy Trailblazer (2006) with 45,000 miles, and I live with my gf now and we car pool, using her car.

End result is for the past 4 months, I've put maybe 45 miles on the Kia and always choose to take the Trailblazer if I'm getting groceries.

Unless its a TBSS I'd take the Kia :p

Fun fact: I did suggest to my wife we get a TBSS but she doesn't care for the styling.

It's the nicest variation that isn't a TBSS. Also the v6 not the v8. Step-dad bought it as his daily driver for his machinists job that was 1.5 miles away. He barely drove it anywhere else.

He couldn't get what he wanted in trade when he decided to upgrade (these things are everywhere so they're not worth anything) so he decided he'd rather give it to me.

The trailblazer was free. I still have a payment on the KIA.

I got a little behind last year on finances and if I didn't have the car payment I could get caught up much quicker. Since i'm not driving it often, it doesn't make sense to keep it.

Maybe I'm spoiled being in Los Angeles where price competition is fierce, but that looks pricey for Craiglist. For comparison's sake, a 2012 Infiniti G37 with 35K miles is $17,800 used certified from a dealer with free Carfax/history check from AllState. Otherwise, great job!

price is fair in this market.

They go for as high as $19k in other parts of the country.

This is a NICE car. It's not a junk Kia.

It looks like you made a lot of mistakes for a CL ad...

- You listed the price
- You listed the mileage
- You have a lot of pics
- All of your pics are clear
- You listed out all of the pertinent details

Don't feel bad... Those are rookie mistakes.

You aren't the least bit ashamed of using Anandtech Garage for drawing attention to your car sale under the guise of a "review"?

There's a sticky.

You forgot to say "no, I will not trade for your Civic shell + a box of cigarettes."
