warbird24 Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 Ange, Try to get there in the day light hours and do a GOOD walk around. Note ANY and all descrepencies on the exterior and interior. Make sure what you buy is what you get. If it is supposed to have the cargo cover, make sure it is there. If it has floor mats, make sure they are there. If it is right off the truck, YES...Test Drive it and make sure it represents the brand. If the dealer offers, make sure they go over all the features and accessories with you. Make sure any and all documentation comes with the car, Window Sticker, Owner's Manual, Manual for the Radio if available. Get an additional business card from the Sales Person, Shop Manager, and the Owner if you can. You may have to deal with these folks in the future. Good Luck with your purchase!

warbird24 Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Ange, I'm in Rochester NY. This waiting game is the PITS! LOL! I guess I am one of those instant gratification guys. I know the wait is going to be worth it, but I've been second guessing some of our option selections. Sometimes I feel that we should have gotten the AWD version, but we've never really needed AWD even in the heavy snows around here. Thought about some of the Video options, but we only travel 2 up for the most part. I gotta call and see if it got on the train yesterday......
