I have excellent credit and my lowest credit card has 10% interest, minimum. Not that it matters because I pay mine off every month, use the 2% cash back as easy money.
same...my credit card I’ve had for twenty plus years and pay off...was 5% for years but now it’s 6%.
I mean no offense but was your credit bad? I don’t think I’ve ever paid more than 2.5 for a used vehicle. Hell my credit card interest rate isn’t even that high
It's around 800
On the car before this one I got pre-approved through Bank of America and the dealer got better terms...with Bank of America. I think you usually have to pay full sticker to get 0% financing.
I am waffling between the Mercedes GLA and Lexus UX. I like both but I’m wondering if overall I’d be better off with the Lexus due to maintenance ect. I’ve yet to test drive the UX but have driven the GLA and GLC. I like how the Mercedes drives. I’ve always had Toyota’s with the exception of a Volvo S40 which hit 75k miles and starting breaking all the time. Reliability on the Lexus seems better but the Mercedes seems like the overall winner in that division of suvs. Will probably just buy new so I can get exactly what I want on it. Anybody got a UX or GLA with thoughts?
You might save enough if you act today to buy it in Dallas and fly down for it. Melt starts tomorrow. Doesn’t cost anything to shop.
im not stepping foot in Texas right now. I’m gonna go test drive the BMW X1 this weekend...it has higher reviews and their free maintenance program is a nice bonus that the other brands don’t include.
You can buy it and take delivery when it thaws. These guys haven’t sold any cars in a week. No service income. Pick your car. Takes five minutes. You’ll either love the Beamer or hate it; they usually are polarizing.
you make a valid point. I wonder if anyone is even at the dealership I’d you go online.
Ha, I have the 2015 CX-5, grand touring. Just rolled over 100k miles, and that's including not driving it for over a year combined while out in Maui. Love it, but can't flat tow it, so it gots to go.
The wife has a CX-9 and loves it. Also, a Mazda Miata MX-5 convertible. I am thinking about a CX-5 for my next car.
Not 4 series specific but BMW has stepped up their interiors lately. Much nicer than previous models. What's you budget for an SUV and when do you need to buy?
I'm having some orderers remorse on the Bronco. Thinking about a couple of moves.1. Sell the wife's 550 (already have someone interested) and buy her a slightly used 430 or 440 convertible.2. Buy a Land Cruiser for myself. If I get her the convertible I pretty much have to get a decent sized, somewhat luxury SUV. If I get the Bronco she's pretty much locked into keeping her current car (paid for) or getting something else similar. Anyone have any experience with the 4 series convertible or a Land Cruiser?
No rush on either. My kid turns 16 in June. I'd like to have something by then so I can give him my Grand Colonizer. It looks like I could get in a new Land Cruiser for around $80K. That's more than I'd like to spend, but I'm willing to do it if I like the vehicle enough. I read where 2021 is the last year they are making the Land Cruiser. I'm sure they'll hold it out a few years and bring it back as a station wagon styled SUV with an electric motor. Speaking of electrics, I really like the Rivian, but due to my job I need a hell of a lot more than 300 miles between charges.
You can consider the Lexus LX series as well, its pretty much the same as a land cruiser, though personally I'm not a fan of the grill.There's a lot of land cruiser fanboys, if its true that that's the last LC, it'll keep its value in the used market I think
