If you see a lot of a make and model for sale used with less than 50k miles is that a red flag?

No, all that means is that there's a lot of lease returns

Yes, but given the change in market, people may be able to buy out their lease and sell it to that dealer or another dealer for much more than the agreed upon buyout price. So they part with the car and roll that money into another lease possibly

No, a lot of people like to stay in new cars. Check Consumer Reports, read reviews, look at online forums instead.

Most used cars at good dealers are in the 30k mile range since those are lease ending cars. People that lease do it for a lot of different reasons (taxes, want new every 3 years, company cars) and should be looked at as usually pretty good cars. If it's a CPO from a dealer you will get a solid warranty as well.

Look/research major problems and major service intervals. People usually trade them in for new ones instead of doing a costly service. That’s why you’ll find so many used Macans just shy of the 60k mi service (although if you buy CPO they will do the 60k service before you buy the car)

Depends on the car I guess. That doesn’t seem like a big enough reason to boycott a car

Currently a Marketing & Comms Manager at a company I’ve been with for 6 months. I’ve completely transformed their processes and the work is showing on social and internally. People are noticing. Now my former employer where I worked for 10 years casually asked me to do contract work for them. I make $130k at my current salaried job. With my experience into consideration, what’s a good rate to charge if officially offered the freelance work as well?

Current expenses are around $2500 per month including $900 towards retirement savings, so I’m left with around $1500 for going out to bars, eating out, and all stuff. New car would be ~$300 car payment and $150-200 in insurance monthly. Love cars and want something fun to drive around in so seems worth it to me, but don’t want to put myself in a bad place financially. Thank you all in advance, can supply more info if needed
