I don't think I noted it was 'wrong' for you or anyone else. I broad stroked it as yet another layer of laziness by society as a whole. If you want to pay a premium on your car purchase so you can have someone else completely handle it for you, have at it. I work 40+ hours most weeks but I still find the time to handle this process for myself (and family members who ask for help) given the amount of money and commitment involved.

No one using Carvana is getting the best pricing they could, but I'm beginning to think no one cares about that anymore, so long as they never have to leave the couch. Next new business opportunity...a cellphone app and service where you can have someone bring you a drink from the refrig in the kitchen.

So... you like the dealship experience? I don’t.

Personally, I do, but I recognize myself as an exception.

Buying like this is not the last thing I might do, but one of them.
I do not know who dreams this stuff up. But I
guess some folks think it is cool. Crazy stuff.

Plus I do not want to be anywhere near this nonsense. More stupidity. And yes I guess I am a codger!

"After busting my ass over 40 hours a week, what's wrong with that?"

Nothing I guess. I busted mine for 50+hours a week for 25 years and found time to do things like buy a used car many times.
