You came through Boise and didn't buy me coffee and Krispy Kremes? Tsk tsk.
 
We do that drive now and then - my wife recently drove to Pokey for a meeting and said it reminded her of the Alaskan tundra with all the open country and the fall colors in the sage and rabbit bushes.
 
I84 does have occasional winter problems over there with blowing snow, drifts and lousy visibility, but the weather reports are pretty accurate.
 
Congrats on the new Ody!

Buying over internet by farmer3

Could someone give me pointers on how to bargain for a car over the internet?? Do you start with your low price or first ask the dealers what their best price is?? Any pointers would be helpful. I'm interested in a Touring w/ NAV&RES. Thanks!

Hi, I am living in Northern California and I want to buy a EX-L from other states. (the price here is too high) but California DMV requires that all new car from outstate has to meet california emission standard. I don't know if the odyssey are different which is sold in california or other states?

I would recommend to wait for the 1st working day of the last week of a month.In this year Nov. 29th & Dec 27th. Locate all the dealers in a 700 mile radius through www.honda.com and start sending the internet sales managers asking them quotes for the vehicle of your choice. I recommend get a pool of atleast 25-35 dealers. Mention that you have a good feel of the sale prices in your area and you are willing to travel a little bit more if a good deal is offered. Wait and see how many responses you get. If you find a satisfactory price(which generally would be the lowest price) you can call the internet sales person and try to see if you can get an additional $'s off. Generally there are some dealers who would say that they would beat any offer by $100. Take the lowest you get and show it to them and see if they can still beat by $100. You might want to go through a couple of iterations to get the desired price you want and finally purchase the vehicle & enjoy it.

Try Honda of Pocatello, ID or Ken Garff of Ogden,UT. They have published pretty good prices. I bought a Honda Odyssey EXL which meet the california emission standard. It was mentioned in the paper work that the dealer provided to me during the sale of the vehicle. Make sure you go through their internet department. I got the vehicle from dealer in Idaho. I got it for 1700 below MSRP without any haggling/issues.

Steve, I did'nt know you were in Boise. If I did, I would have certainly met you and of course bought you a coffee and Krispy Kremes...

The sale started Sept. 23, and I have not seen a new Odyssey on the road or a parking lot yet????
I live in Lake Orion, Michigan (35 miles north of Detroit). Does that mean Honda does not sell '05 Odysseys in my area? By the way, how different does exterior look of '04 vs. '05 Sienna? Because I have not seen a lot of new Siennas either in my area. Thank you!

Why would you do that? Steve came through Seattle and didn't bother stopping to see me!
