Maybe a bag of potato chips.
Is a car something you want from a vending machine?

Why not?
Because they might damage the thing?
What happens if the car doesn't come out and you have to tip the machine over?

Thats why you get a seven day return privilege
I have been hauling a LOT of Concrete to a Carvana vending machine being built. I still don't understand the thinking.
It's not what a 45-70 year old wants. It's what an 18-35 year old wants.
does it get rid of the caR SALESMAN

Or what they don't want to do, like interact with another human.
I see a huge advantage getting rid of car salesmen but it seems like your giving it all back plus more by building 10 something million dollar gimmick. Who's paying for that?
It is cool. I'd like to see it work in person.

There is a Carvana one about 10 miles from my house, been there for maybe 2 years already.

I have debated buying from Carvana before, and if they had the car I wanted there, why not?

I assume you're talking about Carvana. We've got one here. My next door neighbor bought a Camry from them.
Sounds like too much pain to see a couple used cars.

I thought it was a joke. Old Hosteen is always the last one to get the news. Don't think I would like to purchase a vehicle that way.
I saw one of Carvana's vending machines a few weeks ago driving between Dallas and McKinney, TX. Definitely seems like an odd concept to me, but then again I've become the "Get off my lawn!" old guy in recent years.

They also deliver cars on a nice looking truck for the grunts that don't like the vending machine.
So many places these days seem to be marginalizing the car buying process. I think it's a mistake and I won't participate in it. Buying a vehicle is likely the largest purchase a person will ever make. The process needs to remain as hands-on as possible...
