In the old days, we traveled around to local dealerships. I’m awaiting my old SUV’s return (see my other thread). I had an appointment today to maybe seal a deal and buy a 2025 RAV4 at the dealership 4 miles from my house. I took it for a test drive last week.

I just found the same model I wanted with an acceptable color at CARVANA. Shipping it to me will cost $590. It has 15,000 miles odo, had been a rental car, still has the active warranty, and the price is right.
Somehow this feels strange to buy a car online. Can anyone tell me what they know about CARVANA? Am I at any risk with this? They can have the car at my home by Wednesday next week.
