Why you may ask? They dont hassle you, they dont keep you longer than needed, theyre pretty personable (they were jeans/short & tees, so you know theyre real..). and you can get a car for MUCH cheaper!
We got the first van for 9k plus the additional fees for title and processing and all that jazz. We got it for so cheap since it had pretty high mileage- like I said before, it had EVERYTHING... but you know why i liked the car so much at first? It had built in sunshades! No need to worry about those suction cups that NEVER stay!!! Turns out the car was worth like 12k or something..
This past weekend we attempted to go looking for cars sans kids. We only made it to one dealership- Hall Honda. The guy kept us there for nearly two hours! And we told him from the get go that we weren't looking to buy that day, we were just looking... He showed us a 2004 Odyssey. It was relatively basic, cloth seats no gps, it did have a dvd player. That sucker was listed at over 11k! They were 'able' to drop the price down to 8 something plus fees...
Josh then went to craigslist and found a 2005Odyssey listed for 10,900 or somethin like that- right at NADA (kinda like kelly blue book) value. This sucker had was more souped up than the 04- leather heated seats, dvd, SUNSHADES!-- no navigation or reverse camera. This thing had more and was cheaper than the 04! craziness... AND after Josh called them they were quickly able to tell us the lowest price theyd let it go for- none of that "o letme go talk to my manager and disappear for like 5 minutes' bs.
Can you guess which one we got?
so yay! after a month, I'm fianlly with Van again!!! You wouldnt believe how much nicer it is to be driving that than the Golf... Its WONDERFUL!
