Mdbucks, there's a link in my OP, I think I did it right. The Focus replaced the Escort. It's a small compact car.
DH has the cushy Taurus, but he only has a single CD player...neener neener. I never even got to use the single though...
Just before I started looking at cars seriously, I found an article on Edmunds where they had a guy go undercover at a dealership and he reported back all the tricks that we get foisted on us. That 4 square thing is funny as heck. Then when they go to the salesmanager for the going up the food chain it's hysterical. Their big thing also is Payments, how much would you like to pay a for a month? Then they spread it over the next million years to get the payment that you want.
That's funny and sad at the same time cheeptrick.
They really hate to see you quote an internet price at them. Then they come back with a Kelly Blue Book price and they seem to think that you're trying to steal their car from them...when they give you jack on the other end for a trade in.
Buying a new car can be a good thing, but it's value drops dramatically as soon as the first wheel hits the side walk.
I'm glad that your Focus is holding up, Angie...my other one I could've had for a very long time except for stupid people who pull out of driveways without looking.
