I’ve been suggested Carvana, and I may end up going that way if it is indeed the simplest route.

I’m driving an older car, it’s in many ways in very good condition, but the head gasket is starting to go. It hasn’t gotten bad yet (no coolant in the oil… yet) and could be fixed, but the cost to fix is about three times the value of the vehicle. It’s got relatively low mileage for it’s age and I’ve barely driven it anywhere during the time that I’ve owned it.

I don’t expect to get much for it, maybe a $400-$700 bucks, but I really don’t know the best way to go around it.

Like 15 years ago I would have just listed it with pertinent info on condition and photos on Craigslist. I’m not so sure Craigslist is so viable now.

Thanks for any help you can give me, Lemmy!

    List it on Craigslist or Autotrader and see what you can get. I doubt you will get any bites with such an expensive repair bill coming in the future. If no one is interested, then just take whatever instant offer Carvana will give you because you won’t do any better than that.
