Decent Car dealership

Hey All

Since I have a 5th one on the way, the Hot Little Hole and I are contemplating getting a damn mini van for toting the kids around and what not. I say get a 7 seat 4Runner since we rarely have all the kids together now. My oldest stays with her mom more then me. The 4Runner will give me peace of mind in the snow and mountain driving my wife does and also the longevity of having a Toyota. Not really looking forward to a minivan but it is on the possibilities list. We are just starting to look and price vehicles we are interested in and that can fit at least 6 , preferably 7 so we dont have to take 2 vehicles everywhere.

Anyone recommend a dealership or is a COAR15 member a salesmen at a dealership. Id go to them first if I could. We are not looking to buy until the fall FWIW. Just wanna get an idea so I know how much I have to work until then to get a good cunk saved up for it.
Im hoping for a vehicle no older then 2003, but depending on budget and what we find that can be changed up a bit.

Thanks
Gabe

I hate Mini Vans.

Better to sell the kids and get a redneck girlfriend that likes BIG trucks

Mine sees a crew cab with steps as a family car...

All I know is stay away from Rocky's or anyplace that does buy here pay here.

Ah come on Rocky's is a Colorado Icon.
And a crew cab dually is a family vehicle.

I hate MiniVans.

I woudl go for a crew cab if it seated 7 total, but they only seat 6 legally[NoEvil]

i got my jeep off craigslist and drove 100,000 miles before any problems .but its craigslist and i test drove over 80 similar vehicles before i found mine .
just my 2cents , good luck

Rocky's is looked up to by nearly all other dealerships for their selection and organization of their lot. Rocky's is no worse than any other dealership on the planet.

Agreed. IMO there is no such thing as a good car dealership. They are all designed and staff trained to screw from word go. Skip em and buy an older vehicle from a private party. Sure you may have to fix it now and again but if you buy used from a dealer you'll be doing the same thing but making sky high payments on top of it.

Seriously? I took a friend there a couple years ago and I have rarely seen a bigger den of thieves. Asking for money before test drives and many many other unscrupulous dirty tricks. And on top of that asking nearly 10,000 more than the car he was looking at was worth. That place is unbelievable. STAY AWAY!
