Tire Replacement

[Erin Rothchild ~ RE/MAX]

Hoping to be an owner by month end-

Regarding"The Extra Mile Option B"...Dealership states that ioption will pay six hundred dollars towards my next set of tires with this program which also adds some other goodies, but has an additional $965 tacked to the price -Has anyone had any actual experience with this program...do they have a decent selection of well rated tires at the dealership? We have read about certain tires being better for mileage and wear over the months we have been following the PC information....

Please let us know what brand of plastic hood covering aka:bra(?) you suggest and why...our dealership does not offer this, and we want get it addressed asap. We are in the greater Houston area if anyone has a well respected reference to share, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to all who offer input and suggestions in advance. We are excited and nervous at the same time. Looking forward to joining everyone as "owners" Erin "+"

No personal experience w/ that particular dealer option, but it's a fairly sure thing that you're not going to come out ahead. Those types of add ons by the dealer are designed purely to put money in the pockets of the dealer above and beyond their usual profit.

I would practice the following phrased when it comes time to close the purchase of your car..... "That doesn't sound like something I'm interested in, thank you." Repeat that 100 times prior to your close and repeat it frequently during the process. Danny, the owner of this site, sells the Platinum Warranty for ~$1000, so unless your dealer can beat that just say "No thank you" even if you decide you want the warranty (and you really probably don't need it).

You are a nicer person than I am, I say "no, thank you" abour twice, and then start up with

"Which part didnt you understand.... the "No" part or the "Thank you" cause I can cut out the "Thank you" part as needed."
