33. In December, I bought a used 2023 Chevy Bolt EV from Hertz Car Sales.

Mar 18

Had 30,000 miles on it, and I paid under $16,000. Original warranty is still in effect for almost two years. Mine rolled off the assembly line in October of 2023, so it was probably in the last batch that was built.

Hertz just released a lot more Bolts for sale, and it looks like they saved the best for last. Mileage in the 15,000 range.

Forgot to add that it is such a fun car to drive. Hoping this will be the last car I own. I think it will end up being my favorite of all the cars I've owned over the years.
