Hello everyone! Yes, she has been named, however, I am still waiting on her arrival since Aug 11, a 2022 Hyundai Venue SEL. The current car that I have driven for 12 years, 11 months and 23 days is ready to retire, I can say she never gave me any major problems until the last few months there were a few issues that’s been adding up. I hope Vinnie will live up to be as long as Vive so we can have some fun together. Anyway, I would like to ask on how long does it normally take before the vehicle gets to the dealership? The last I check it shows status as PA for about a week or so and then it was changed to DS but then today it was changed back to PA again, can someone tell me what that means and what would be the status if the car has been delivered at the dealership? Normally how long does it take before it is ready for pick up once it was delivered at the dealership?
Next few questions are once the car is picked up, I would like to get some advice or suggestions since it’s a new car. We plan on going directly on a road trip as soon as we get off the dealer’s lot we’ll be driving from MD to FL. I’ve heard different stories about breaking in a car and the oil needed to be changed before a long drive, how true are these? The dealer said they will check everything and no need to worry about it. Will it be fine to drive the car until we get to FL and get the oil changed there? With all these new tech and hopefully better engines, any advice on breaking in the car? Can a regular gas be used on the Venue with no issues, or do we need to use premium? Any suggestions on car seat covers, floor mats, etc. Any suggestions or advice is greatly welcomed and appreciated 😊
