Yes, exactly. I’m not really allowed to do anything other than some minor personalization of appearance.

My work laptop recently updated to Windows 11 and man, what a pile of garbage. If I could downgrade, I definitely would

Is it 2300 miles or 23,000? If it’s 2300, that price isn’t terrible. If it’s 23,000, that’s a lot of miles for a car that is only a year old and would probably take the price down closer to 20-21k. Does your current car have any real issues or do you just want something newer?

Regardless of your states requirements, Id get it inspected by a mechanic of your choosing. It’s a Toyota so there probably isn’t anything wrong with it, but a $150 inspection could save you from a $20,000+ mistake.

As for can you afford it? If you had rent, utilities, groceries, etc., definitely not. I’d guess you net around $2400 a month from your paychecks and a loan on that car would probably be around $450-$500 a month(assuming down payment of the value of your current car, a 10% interest rate, and 60 month term).

If you pay cash, would you have a 6 month emergency fund built up by the time you start paying rent? That calculation should include rent, utilities, insurance, groceries, and gas(even if you don’t have to pay for all of that).

If the answer is yes and you really want the car, sure, go for it. Could you do something else with that money that would increase your net worth long term, absolutely, but the choice is ultimately yours.

I’m not sure about other states, but the one I live in usually requires two brain death tests at least 6 hours apart and by different MDs that have to be credentialed to perform brain death testing. They also have(and usually perform) an apnea test where they turn the ventilator off for a set period of time and see if the patient initiates any breathes on their own as well as measuring blood gases before and after the procedure. Finally, they often use an injected nucleotide to measure blood flow to the brain, taking multiple images of several angles to confirm that there is no blood flowing to the brain.

If the person was on any paralytics, they have to be cleared from the system before testing can begin as well as all labs such as sodium, potassium, etc. and body temperature must be within normal parameters to begin.

If all those things are confirmed, the person is legally declared dead with an official time of death and only then can the legal next of kin be approached for organ donation.

Basically, this person is bonkers(as we all know) and organ donation is highly regulated.
