Decent Car dealership

[spyder]

I was in the same spot, I picked up myself an 03' Volvo V70 XC. It has seats for all of us and is AWD. Oh, and the gas is better than either of the other two.

I never thought I'd own a mini van, but yes, we bought one with a couple of little ones running around in 1999. Couldn't beat the price vs the hauling capacity. It was a dodge caravan, did us good through 125k miles. Other people didn't have such luck. I hear the Toyota Sienna is a good ride for a van. You might consider something like a suburban or yukon XL etc. Gas $$ will be high, but you can haul the family and do other things with it that a mini van might not be able to do.

Also talk to Colorado Lucky Dog, he might have good insight on the dealers and rides.

Glad to hear someone say that. I'm one of the managers there.

Hey you service dept helped me out more than i wish to state but next mustang or f150 i need im going back. I bought my wife a 06 mazda6 and even though the car was absolute crap your sales and service dept are top notch, its the last new car i buy with cash.

This thread is really cracking me up. It amazes me how many people really don't know shit about Dealerships.

People will pay 150 % markup on a shirt and not think a thing about it but if a Dealership trys to make 10 % profit, they are thieves. It really does crack me up.

YUP!!

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

Chevy Suburban

Costs an average of 10K more but Expedition EL

And my personal favorite, though hard to find under 100K miles the Excursion with the 7.3

Though if you dont mind driving over 100 miles for the Excursion you can probably get it just under 100K on the clock.

I had a pretty decent experience with Planet Hyundai recently, which is where I got my Yukon. Jeff, the sales dude, was a good guy. Go Subaru West is a good one too. I have a friend at Go Toyota that I would deal with as well

Worst dealership I've dealt with: probably Go Subaru Arapahoe.

the Hot Little Hole and I are contemplating getting a damn mini van

The "Hot Little Hole"? Wow. Of all these posts, that was the one thing that I kept thinking of each time I read a dealership recommendation was "I hope the Hot Little Hole approves".

The last vehicle we bought we got from Boulder Nissan, the entire experience was great.

Bought my Jeep at Pollard Jeep in Boulder. Can't complain I got a great deal, no pressure or BS.

Now I'm just trying to convince the wife to get the 6.4L Hemi conversion on my Wrangler
