I did all of my negotiating over the internet. Saved myself a lot of time and hassle.

Actually I was looking at the Kia Sedona, it is a mini van that has a lot of power. And has a sleek outside design. It gets great gas mileage too. Very economical.


And I just can't decide what I want. I have about 5 things I am looking at right now. Can't make up my mind.

How do you negotiate over the internet. They pretty much have a quote and that is about it.

Wife has a Honda Odyssey Touring. For long trips way better than my Infiniti. Might want to check those out.

If you go on the dealer website, some places have an internet sales manager. Did a bunch of e-mails back and forth over the course of a few hours (while at work). Never even left my desk. Pinned down the price and went into the showroom to finalize the deal (I did test drives previously at other dealerships, and got a good idea of what area of pricing I'd be dealing with). Negotiated free tinted windows, hood protector, free oil changes for life...

I got my wife a 2010 Mazda 5. Nice ride, excellent value for the money. Highly recommended. More like a microvan, so may not be big enough for your needs.

Sweet thanks for the info, I will go check that out. I have been in and out of 5 dealerships. I have narrowed it down to the Ford Edge, Nissan Moreno, Honda CR-V, Nissan Maxima, or Buick Regal, and the Chevy Equinox.

Just have to decide what I want and what I want to pay for it.

Thanks for the offer, but I don't think I will be making the road trip to Indiana. If I lived closer I would do it.

No worries...

BTW, I'd go with the CR-V from your list. From a reliability issue and resale value, it's the best value for the money IMO.
