| I've owned a 2002 Mazda Tribute for 5 years. After 43,000 miles the O/D drive started blinking and the service engine soon light came on. I immediately took it to the dealer and was told I needed a new transmission. It is no longer under warranty and the cost will be $3,500. Has anyone else had this problem with transmission? | |

Can anyone tell me what they are getting for prices on the 2007 Escapes 2WD in the St. Louis area. I recieved a quote of $17,300 which was the base for the Auto XLS 2WD. It included the $3,000 rebate.

Replying to: jon_carter_99 (Nov 21, 2006 3:48 pm) In my zip the target price is $17,077... this is about $375 over invoice (ie base invoice + destination fee + $375) minus $3k in rebates. I would offer $16,700 which is true invoice - rebates if they have the exact car you want in stock, they still make $$ on the holdback...see my post above for the deal I had worked out. It's the end of the month so you should be able to get a nice deal.

Replying to: guard (Dec 19, 2006 9:07 am) Trouble is, these discounts will probably be reflected in the blue book values next year, so you still may want to hit about 10 dealers by email fax eom to see if it can be beat before the end of the month. That assumes it isn't the last blue one or whatever within 100 mi or so. If you gotta have it offer 18,500 and play hard to get. You're in the drivers seat. Tell him you're looking at several other vehicles and wifey hates blue. The market has been soft on these vehicles for more than a year. FYI several dealers here in Southern Ohio in May were offering the same vehicle in 05 model year for about the same. (about $7000 off) So you've got a pretty good deal, the fact you got it so easily makes one suspicious there may be more there. If you're into extended warranties or that sort of thing, try to keep any 7 to 8 year, 100 or 120k mi bumper to bumper factory warranties to about $800-1200. Othewise just pass. lotsa luck --jjf This Tribute has the following options: CDD - 6 Disc Player FLA - Floor Mats MCT - Rearview Dimmer RSP - Rear Spoiler AB2 - Side Airbags 1TP - Tow Pkg MSRP: $27,320 Invoice: $25,382 After 3,000 Rebate and Dest charge: $22,789 Dealer is offering it for: $19,975 This looks like a good deal.... any thoughts?
