$22k from a dealership that plans to still be around a year from now looks better to me than $24k from the bankruptcy "bargains".
Why does it matter if Hertz might be going out of business? I just don't get the fascination with this. I have never been back to a dealer I purchased a car from. Once the car is in my possession the dealer is irrelevant

Yes, the car in NY is $2,000 less with 7,000 more miles. The details say it was a rental car and it is a salt car. It is also listed for $13,500 on the dealer's website so you might expect some monkey business with dealer fees. 2 out of 4 reviews say the dealer didn't follow through on a sale after the buyer put down a deposit.

All that said, I'll point to CarGuru's rating on the price (Great Deal - $4,653 below market price)

The Hertz car is rated as (Good Deal - $3,266 below market value)
