We Bought a Car in Ecuador then Drove 14,000 FT up into the Andes

We Bought a Car in Ecuador then Drove 14,000 FT up into the Andes! After testing multiple vehicles and going back and forth on what to do… we finally made the decision. We bought a car in Ecuador. Meet Ruby! Our 2022 Peugeot 3008 with 81,500 km and what might be one of the biggest upgrades to our life here in Cuenca. But this video is more than just buying a car…It’s about what happens after. We take you through the full journey: Test driving cars in Cuenca and what we found. Our experience at the dealership in Ecuador. What we paid and how the process works. And then… taking Ruby out for her very first adventure We head high into the Andes climbing to over 14,000 feet to a stunning mountain restaurant, putting the car (and ourselves!) to the test in real Ecuador terrain. This is the kind of freedom we’ve been missing: 1. Exploring hidden places 2. Traveling with our dogs easily 3. Getting off the beaten path For anyone considering expat life in Ecuador… this is a real look at what day-to-day life can become once you’re settled. And for those of you already here, you’ll know exactly how big of a step this is. Ecuador is now our home base for at least the next two years… and this is just the beginning of a whole new level of adventure.
