Between two used cars
Hi,
Was hoping to get your opinion and advice on two SUV options we're considering. In the scenario where both are the same model and trim with exactly the same options, which would you choose? Both are appropriately adjusted in terms of cost. Both are non-rental, no accidents etc:
- car A: used for 12 months, 50,000 kms
- car B: used for 24 months, 50,000 kms
Car B will have average wear and tear given that it's about average mileage of 25,000 kms per year. Car A is really a year newer, but has been driven double per day. I assume that car A was mostly highway since it would be ~190 km per work day or ~140 km per day if the previous owner drove the same every day.
This particular car has a continuously variable transmission (CVT) so I'm wondering if driving that much per day (assumingly) at the same speed on the highway would cause extra wear and tear.
What are your thoughts?
thanks!
