Business must be good
This morning my favorite eldest child went to the Lansing, MI, Subaru dealer with checkbook in hand with the intent to replace her 2003 Subaru with a 2019 Forrester. As of 4:30 they haven't sold her a car: gotten two other dealers within 60 miles to answer the phone or talk her into the higher trim level on the lot. She also likes the Honda CRV.
I guess the customer coming in with the intent of writing a check for a new car doesn't have all that much attraction for this dealer. Vetter, is that the problem you had? A lot of 2003 Subaru's had head gasket problems after abt 10 years and she has been waiting for hers to get bad enough to fix or replace for 6-7 years. Gas mileage drops way off when you are running the car on oil and antifreeze and she gave me the "it's not worth fixing" line. She wants a new car. Didn't know my kid was rich enough to write a check for a new car. Maybe I'll hit her up for a loan. |
She must be doing all right for herself greener. The last car I paid cash for was a 57 Pontiac. That was in 1965 and I paid $175.00 for it. Turned out to be a good car too.
