You probably paid $200 to $300 in finance charges to setup the loan, probably still ahead at 0% for 60 months??

We had a Chevy dealer attempting to price match a lease price we got from Honda on a Civic for a Chevy Cruze, I think they had to resort to Employee pricing to make the deal. We'll be keeping that one till the last day of the lease. I'm pretty sure on the next one we'll either be paying...

I haven't seen anything like that since Saturn left.

The bigger names in hitches are Curt, Draw-Tite, and REESE. Chances are most other names are probably made by one of them anyway.

My Stealer wanted to do my first FREE one at around 4,200 miles, so, I let them. Then, surprisingly, they called and offered me a 2nd FREE oil change, I wasn't reallyl ready for another one yet, so, I pushed it out a month from when they called, but, I was still only at about 8,800 miles, so...

I'm sure this almost never happens for anyone else, but, my girlfriend has been leasing from the same dealership, and yes, the same salesman for the pas 22 years, so, I guess that's 8 leases, 8 vehicles, mostly Saturns, then Chevy after Saturn went away. Amazes me that the same salesman is...

I accidentally filled my Honda Civic with 91 and it gave me a gas-cap idiot light warning until the next fill-up when I used 87 again, so, it did change something enough to trigger the idiot light, but, it ran fine.

There's a couple other options to have hitches put on. I've done U-Haul, find one of the bigger stores in your area, they probably install hitches. We have a nice bike shop near by, they install hitches as well. Both should be cheaper than the Dealer. In other words, check around, there's...

I hear over and over again, that German cars are more expensive to get serviced, both in labor and especially in parts. But, don't know first hand. There's enough other makes and models to keep my attention without having to look at any of the German builds.

Yeah, it'd be so much nicer if we could buy cars without having to deal with Dealers!!! I guess Tesla is working on that, but, of course the Car Dealers are sending in their Lobbyists to make sure that new cars must be sold through a dealership. I guess as nice as it sounds, I'm not sure how...

I've never seen a plastic water pump, very odd. But, also to be honest, we frequently towed a popup camper and about a 2,000 lb boat and trailer, something front wheel drive mini-vans really weren't designed for, so, that was probably a bit more abuse than "normal".

In my case with the Dodge Caravan Tranny rebuild, the dealer also stated that there were "fixes" in the rebuild kit. Which tells me, that if they have known fixes, that means there was known issues, which I think is part of why they agreed to split the cost. We did run that caravan well over...

I had a dodge caravan, and you know dodge products, their transmissions usually go somewhere around 70,000 miles, which is what the warranty was at the time. Sure enough, at approx 74,000 my transmission went out, but, it was close enough to the warranty they split the cost of the rebuild with...

Anything that you can find wrong with it, that would be covered under warranty I'd be getting it in, and taken care of. Any rattles, or electronics not working, get-r-done now before the warranty expires and they don't have to do anything(for free). You can always pay to get it fixed later, or...

That too :-)

I looked at the escape, strongly considered it, but, it was a bit more expensive and back then, I'd heard rumors of recalls, not sure if they'd actually happened yet. Test drove the CX-5, loved the looks, never owned or even driven a Mazda before, so, thought we'd give it a try. As I told my...

Uhhh... they already replaced mine, didn't make a bit of difference, it still works for a couple weeks, then stops working until I un-pair and re-pair it, then it works again for a couple more weeks, then stops working, rinse and repeat...

I had never driven, or even ridden in, as far as I can remember, a Mazda until the day I test drove and purchased my CX-5 back almost a year ago. Other than the Infotainment SMS/eMail to speech function only working 2 weeks at a time, I Love the rest of the vehicle so far. We went with the...

My understanding is that both the mini-van and the station wagon are being replaced by the CUVs, such as the CX-5 and CX-9 style vehicles. I've had both in the past, and liked both, but, I can see how the CUVs are sort of a combination of what was good in them.

Going on a year now, and mine still only reads text and emails for a couple weeks, then stops working until I totally un-pair, then re-pair the car and phone, then it will work again for a couple weeks. You'd think by now(a year later) they'd have a fix!!
