Hi all - I’ve seen this question posted before, but I’ve seen a few different answers. I just bought a 2013 Subaru Outback with 74K on the dash (apparently 1 owner per CARFAX), and now I’m to the phase of the PPI. Car is being delivered Friday, so I’m trying to get it in early next week. For this, should I take it to a dealer, an in-network place with SilverRock, or another trusted mechanic in the area? Pretty nervous about this whole process but fingers are crossed for the best. Thanks in advance for your help.

I am currently in the market for a used car and a Volvo seems like a smart choice for the long run. I have two options in front of me: a 2012 XC70 3.2 and a 2017 XC60 T5. I’ve done some research and it seems like both engines have their share of issues, but I can’t tell if they’re widespread or just a result of poor maintenance. Both cars are at around 75K on the dash. I’d love to know what people here think.
