The lease on my wife's Acura is coming up and she's been on a Mini Van kick for some reason ... so i go today to look at some SUV's and Mini Vans ... some how i end up Buying a Chrysler Town and Country Touring edition Fully loaded (leather/DVD/ Stow and Go / power lifts .. every option they have .. I bring my wife to look at it and she kinda wants the Honda Odyssey .... but she agrees that for the money the T&C will do just fine ..and i got a killer price. We give the down payment and go home.
2 hours later I say fuck it and run over to see the Honda .. The Van is really nice .. really nice soft leather ..wood trim .. a lot like a Lexus RX300 .. I like it (as much as a man can like a mini van ) But they want an arm and a leg for it and I'm just not willing to pay that for a car that will only be carting the kids local and the occasional trip to Vermont .. I tell the guy forget it ...
He shows me the Honda Pilot EXL .. AWD / all leather /9 inch wide screen DVD and the third row was easy for me to fit in .. the fucking thing was nice .. and i got it for $5 more then the Town and country .. so i took it and went back to tell the other guy I didn't want the mini van any more .. he was heart broken .. I felt bad
How much does a car salesmen make on a $35k car ??
I'm still looking for a nice sporty car for myself but I can live with driving the Honda a lot better then the Town and Country ..I may even get one of those 4 door Jeeps ..they are really cool .. i was checking it out when i was there ... always wanted a jeep ..
PS. After buying the mini van I felt so unmanly that I had to take the motorcycle out just to get my balls back ...
