Still a Beetle. I equate that scenario as dating the ugly sister with a really great personality and dating the smoking hot bitch of a sister with a penchant for lift off oversteer.

If you're having your valet read you this as you drive your luxury or near-luxury car, at this very moment at least one of your hands is probably touching something covered in Alacantara. It's soft, it's modern, it's what you deserve. But what is it, exactly?
Normally, Tom, I would add to your article from the salesman's point of view. While I don't ignore anyone, I agree that this does happen. I have nothing to add to this, all of it is great advice.
When the General public thinks of Jeep they think of the Wrangler, which is derived from the Original Willy's Jeep which is a WWII icon.
I can't speak for other manufacturers, but as I'm aware, there aren't any restrictions on Ford's CPO program in regards to accident damage. There is a caveat in that the repair has to be done right, if it has a bent frame, then it has to be repaired properly before CPO can be approved. Carfax also has a buyback…
I had a guy trade in an LX with the Air Suspension. 220k, didn't look worse for wear. 30 maintenance records on the carfax, mostly oil changes, and one air suspension fix, I would have bought that thing if I needed a cheap reliable car. I've seen 400k Town Cars with the original engine.
This is huge. I'm glad to see Ford is on board, MFT may finally give way to a truly modern interface.
The mention of heat is a bit curious here, suggesting that the energy may be harnessed via the heat produced, though I'm not really sure how likely that is. Some sort of mechanical linkage to convert the suspension travel to rotational motion to drive a generator could be possible, as well as the admittedly more…
B, C, D, and Small Crossover/SUV is the meat of the market in the US. Not wagons, Not Minivans. Ford is no two bit manufacturer, look at the killer product they've come up with in the last 2 years: Fiesta, Focus, Fusion, Escape. B,C,D,SC.
That totals ~$650k. The rest of the money will go to taxes, insurance, gas, track fees, racing lessons, and a trailer for the Atom.
It's in that "not old enough to be a classic" stage, give it 10 yrs.
Wait, so how does Ford get around this legislation with their auto highbeams on the Exploder?
If you love haggling and you'd hate the idea that you missed a few hundred bucks because you didn't push, go for it anyway. Keep in mind however that even traditional dealerships generally only have a certain amount of leeway before they have to back out of the offer. They have tons of tools to make up any lost money,…
Except you can't get a reg cab/6.5ft box with a 3.5L, the Tremor is the only way you can.
We saw this with the debut of the 2013 Escape. Many people thought the nameplate went soft and Ford saw a record March for the Escape nameplate a month before the availability of the new model. The new Escape is a love it or hate it style, and many hate it folks opted for a 2012 with huge rebates.
That is amazing.
Not really. Turnover is exceptionally high in the car business, without proper training most folks are slinging metal. A properly trained staff including product knowledge + Location + Inventory = #1 store.
Not really anymore. People aren't stupid and most see through the old sales tactics. If you can truly impress someone with some accurate product knowledge, and properly attach benefits to their needs, you will make a sale. Closers come off sleazy most of the time, making a deal is easier if you know your product and…
Well when 60k comes up, might be time for intake/exhaust and a mild premium tune, should get you there, we're only talking about 20ft/lbs. 5.0L is 380 from the factory.
