There was no red flag in 2020, when the race ended under caution and was won by Takuma Sato as helpless Scott Dixon had to stay in line with no chance to try a late pass for the win. Since Penske’s first 500 as owner in 2020, both last year and this year have had late red flags to set up a race to the finish. In 107 years, the Indy 500 has ended under the yellow flag or red flag (for rain) just 19 times, but 10 of those endings have been since 2000. “We have a group that is certainly the officials of the track, and to me, we’ve said this before, I think all of you had said, we want to see a checkered flag, not a yellow flag.” I am very happy with this purchase and have recently notified the Owner of my satisfaction.“I had nothing to do with (the red flag), obviously,” Penske said. A positive point about this dealer is that he provides a free copy of CarFax with each vehicle. Since bringing the Jeep home, I have replaced or repairs a few minor items and the vehicle runs well after one year. Negotiations with the Owner were fair and went well.

The mileage was low, which I verified using an OBDII reader, and there was a minor oil leak from a seal which was easy to fix and not abnormal for this type of vehicle and age. When I showed the sales representative, they immediately had a parts store deliver a complete set of spark plug wires and then proceeded to change every one out while I continued my inspection. While checking the spark plugs, one of the leads to the plug pulled off. I returned the following week and performed a detailed inspection of all systems. I drove from Delaware and conducted a preliminary inspection of the vehicle and found it to be fine. This review is being written one year after purchasing a 2008 Jeep Wrangler.
