The end is here! by pssimon

Now that I just bought my 2nd Pacifica, my dealer is going away.
 
Its going to be interesting now that Chrysler has put out the list of dealers to be axed. Sadly, the one I have been dealing with for 25+ years is on the list! I will miss them.
 
Anyone else in that boat (losing a dealer they really become "attached" to)?
 
NPR was saying Corporate was not even going to help the dealers they are axing with respect to inventory. They are leaving all the stock with the dealers for them to deal with, most likely to send to auction so they will get even less.
 
I will surely miss my dealer. They sold my family about 8 cars, including 2 Pacificas.
 
Anyone else feel the loss?
 
Paul

Just agreed to and put a deposit on a new 2008 Pacifica with everything. Sticker was 37.5k and bought it for 25k OTD. We have a newborn and the wife is really excited as we got so many more options than we could have in any other car. Too bad the dealership is closing and this was the last 2008 left. Crazy deal - I'm sure we will never buy another car this good this cheap ever again.

Switching to fake oil shouldn't violate the warranty, as long as it has the required certifications - and is changed per the recommended schedule.
 
The manual states 3,000 miles between oil changes, period (regardless of oil quality). If you want to spend double or triple on oil, that's OK, but if you increase your oil change interval accordingly (to justify the cost), then you'll risk voiding the warranty.
 
While it's your choice: if the warranty is important (and you don't like wasting money), then stick with regular oil at the recommended interval.
 
If fuel economy improves, then it might help offset some cost, but would certainly fall short of justifying the expense.

Wife and I picked it up (Sig series) touring loaded for 25,000 OTD. We also got the extended warranty from Chrysler for $1,300 for 5/60,000. Happy with the car and purchase. Too bad our newborn is too young for the videos now.

I put Goodyear's on my '04. I was going to get Fortera's but was told I can get the truck equivalent (spec for spec) by buying the truck version in the exact same size. These were Assurance Triple Treads. Check them out! They are the same tire and cost less. I will say they are a little noisier than the Michelin, but these tires should last forever (well, almost!). Check it out!

You will love your Pacifica! I just purchased one and love it. It was on the lot for $28,725 and I got it for $14, 900. Great deal huh? It's amazing.
 
I like most the parking assistant that alerts you when something is behing the vehicle and the DVD player--my daughter thinks it is amazing to be able to watch Dora in the car.

I own a 2006 Dodge Caravan that I switched to synthetic oil after 10,000 miles and I just bought a 2007 PT Cruiser convertible that I will switch to synthetic oil after it reaches 10,000 miles. In both owner's manuals it says that under no circumstances should oil changes exceed 6 months or 6,000? miles. You need to check your owner's manual to make sure that you do not violate the terms of the warranty.

Congrats - a lot of car for little money. We are still a year or two away from the DVD being used for our son, but I may convince the wife to drive while I watch a movie in the back
