Got insurance for it tonight. 2006 Azera with 104,000 miles. Its still registered to my father in law but as long as I insure it and keep it running its mine. I still haven’t figured out the 3 car issues yet. Also im finding its not is as great of shape as I thought. The rear sunshade doesn’t come up the front valve cover appears to be leaking and the drivers side front spring seems to be down compared to the rest.

Still, I could do a lot worse for free.

Its also got a pretty loud tick on the engine but I think I recall it was always like this cold. We’ll see. Oil is fresh and clean and all maintenance is up to date.

One thing I’m bummed about is that even though its got the premium sound system there is no AUX port. Good ol tape adapter for me for now.

It only gets 19 city, but thats still 6 better than I’m getting now and if I have to travel the 26 highway will be a lot nicer than the 13 highway Im getting. mainly Im excited to keep miles off the tires of the cruiser. Plus with the rash of thefts of off-road and overland vehicles of late it will be nice to keep it tucked away.

If you are wondering how it drives think late 90's cadillac seville.  Same smells, similar get up, similar crappy plastics.  Hope it doesn’t end up being a money pit.
