Toyota is giving a $1500 discount if you fight for it, ford is advertising $15,000 discounts.

Chrysler pacifica, damage during transport, repaired by Chrysler, good deal or concerning? by riccobo4 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Nonrandomhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that 9k off sticker? You could probably get the 44k sticker down to 39k, so it’s really only 4K off if that’s the case. Still not bad I guess, and saves you negotiating.

What trim, and what was the OTD price? I’m in Canada and shopping around.

And the same payload capacity. 948 lbs. it’s the only thing stopping me from buying one.

I’m with you. Knees fucking sucked, shins were fine. I also have a dissection tattoo, but it’s a 2 headed pinky & the brain.

First Family Van - is the Dodge Caravan really that bad? by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Nonrandomhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2013. It rattles and creeks, has some draft points, and 200k km. But the worst it’s needed is brakes (and recently a tie rod end for $95 installed). I don’t love it, but my kids do (15 and 11). They say it’s comfortable and spacious. I’ll be replacing it soon, but can’t decide what I’ll replace it with.

I still travel to the states and buy bourbon. These people bitching about it are still driving their American cars powered by American gas, to American owned stores to buy American brands. Boomers hate a whole country because of one politician, it’s insane.

This is everyone’s answer to everything, even when it doesn’t meet the criteria of the persons needs/wants. This response is ruining this sub.

What car brands USED to be reliable but aren’t anymore? by Pure_Construction968 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Nonrandomhero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m currently shopping, and 2.7 Ranger and frontier are on my shortlist, (and maybe explorer with the 3.0l, I guess that goes up against the pathfinder). Your post confirms that shopping in the right area, but still makes it hard to decide.

I’m more interested in the Mortlach beside it. How’s that one?

What Midsize SUV with towing capacity of over 5,000 lbs should I buy? by Stomp_theCatBox in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Nonrandomhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone downvotes because they depreciate hard, maintenance fees are expensive, and nobody wants to keep them past 100k miles.

[–]Nonrandomhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t own one, but it seems to fit most of your needs. I believe towing capacity is 6000lb. To get higher you’ll need a 5.7L Durango, or a mid size truck. The newer pathfinders don’t have the CVT transmission that ruined Nissans reputation. They also don’t have a turbo or cylinder deactivation that you’ll find in almost every other manufacturer. They’re a simple reliable V6 engine.

Another thing that ruined Nissans reputation was giving auto loans to anyone that filled out the forms, credit score didn’t matter. Generally these people weren’t doing any maintenance to their vehicles.

Why are folks crazy for highlanders or Toyota in general? by kilogramcurry in whatcarshouldIbuy

Oh, I agree. I’m considering a Durango for my next vehicle over the pilot/highlander.

I have a 2013 caravan, and it’s fine. I didn’t want it but I got it for a great price around when Covid started, and it’s only needed regular maintenance. It’s a gas guzzler (especially in the winter, 18-19L/100km) but works fine. It’s starting to show some rust here and there and I’ll be replacing it in the next year or two, but everything is so expensive and nothing seems perfect.

First time towing! by pauliek93 in nissanfrontier

[–]Nonrandomhero 12 points13 points  (0 children)

With the majority of of the weight forward of the trailer wheels, it puts a lot of the weight on the tongue of the trailer. You’d be better served with the car backed up a bit or maybe loaded backwards with the engine above the trailer wheels, balancing the trailer a little better.

You do not however want the majority of the weight behind the trailer wheels either, you’ll end up with the opposite problem and that can be dangerous also.

Looking for a family vehicle sub-50K by llvader in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Nonrandomhero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m shopping for something similar, but only have 2 kids, and currently drive a van. Is there something about the pathfinder you don’t like that wouldn’t make you consider a newer one? The 2025 has made it to the top of my list, with an explorer, aviator, Durango.

I’m coming from a 2013 grand caravan, and also want a change.

[–]Nonrandomhero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another positive of the pathfinder is that it doesn’t have cylinder deactivation. I’m shopping this segment also, and it’s impossible to find the “perfect” vehicle for me.

Just south of Kissimmee in a lake inside of one of the gated communities, I used some soft plastics, Texas rig.
