Congrats on the new car.
I hate buying cars. One time the salesman kept coming back and would offer me the same cost each time. He would lower the car cost, but at the same time lower my trade-in value by the same amount. I guess he figured I couldn't add.

This has been my best experience ever, Adrian. Our salesman is in second place in sales among about 20 guys. He and another guy are neck and neck for first place. Point being, he listens, and he's pretty sharp.
We'll see how it plays out. We already expect he'll come at us with a white car with the wrong options, and we'll have to tell him he's a knucklehead. I'm praying it all goes well. A lousy salesman experience can really take the joy out of the car, and I truly want Lisa to love the experience as much as the cigar, er, I mean car.

We had a great experience when we bought my wife's PT Cruiser in 2002. I was really impressed when we got to the finance guy and he didn't add in anything without asking. No insurance for extra garbage and no maintenance agreements. Unfotunately the dealership was gone by the next year. When I bought my Mustang, it was the exact opposite. The finance guy added everything under the sun. We redid the contract 3 times because he kept forgetting to remove one thing or another.

Great deal Scott!
