Good evening South Dakota!

I believe it is Charlie. Maybe we all should vote for Bernie and get a new truck.

Nice Escape Rob!

They had some really good incentives and zero interest financing on the '16 Escapes. Found a magnetic gray SE 4x4 that I liked. They actually gave me full book on my Accord, was pretty shocked about that. Sticker was $28,500 and after rebates and discounts, was out the door for $24K.
Nice looking Escape, Rob!

Good morning South Dakota, Monday found us again. Sigh.

Pretty decent super bowl for a change, glad to see it wasn't a lopsided blow out.

Well, it came down to the "deal"... Main reason I didn't like the Escape is because in order to get the AWD model, you had to get the Ecoboost. But after doing some research it seems the big issues were all first model year bugs and they got them ironed out. I put a 100K ESP warranty on it, so I should be good.

Doesn't it always come down to "the deal"??? The eco-boost is a rather fun to drive...love the torque that it provides. Did you buy the warranty directly from the dealer???

I wasn't going to buy the warranty from them, already had a quote in hand for half what they wanted for the ESP, and they matched it. What's funny is they were not even pushing ESP, they wanted to sell another deal through someone else and add a bunch of other useless stuff to it like paint sealant, roadside assistance (which already comes from Ford???) and travel insurance, etc. Finance guy was pretty nice, but did seem annoyed that I didn't blindly accept his great package deal. LOL.

I did look at a couple preowned Edge's ... they were more pricey than the new Escape. I put too many miles on a vehicle to start out at 50,000.

Really did love that Taurus... but couldn't convince the daughter to trade the harp for a piccolo.
