A pitch like that would guarantee I never return to that dealer. That’s either 1. A straight up lie. Or 2. Tells me that their cars are really unreliable that everyone thinks they need an extended warranty.
I can’t say with any authority from any marketing experience of my own, but my guess is sales have outpaced expectations, and they don’t want to leave money on the table. A sharp increase though might make more noise than they would like.
This is what I plan to get.

How did you order those by chance. The Yakima website is garbage and won’t even let me select a system without selecting a vehicle. If I select the BS it won’t let me select the 50” bars. It’s a really frustrating web design.
I really wish they made something kind of like this, but not on the ground. Basically a tent attachment that goes on the back of the BS with the hatch open to allow a bit more room and keep bugs and rain out while improving ventilation.
This article is stuck in an outdated off roading school of thought that thinks off roading capability is only measured in the size of boulder one can crawl over. They believe that solid axle, body on frame, 4x4, low range vehicles are the only option for any and all serious off roading. They...
Oof! No way. I’m paying what the Ford website says. If they ask a penny more, I’ll walk out. It already includes a big “destination fee”. I’d check a different dealer if you have one nearby.
I considered all four of these vehicles and others (including the $40k+ 4Runner) before settling on the BS. I didn’t start with a fixed price. I started with a price range and an idea of capabilities I wanted then looked at all the pros and cons including price. I’d say it’s perfectly reasonable...
If you’re at a higher elevation there could be a difference from the pressure at the factory. I don’t think that would be 10 psi though. Temperature could affect it too. Maybe Tom Brady could answer this 🤣
I don’t care what business you were in. The world is changing. Modern passenger cars have essentially zero hydrocarbon emissions, extremely low NOX and SOX emissions, and CO and CO2 don’t cause cancer. You breath in more hydrocarbons with a single trip to the gas pump than you would driving...
What carcinogens? In modern cars exhaust out of the tailpipe is almost entirely CO2 and water vapor. Other components are negligible. Don’t use scare tactics. If you crack the front windows open you won’t even get CO2.
I honestly don’t understand why anyone would buy this if they don’t intend to go off pavement. It has literally no advantage over an escape on the road unless you’re really hooked on the styling. It will handle (on pavement) worse and get worse gas mileage. It costs more for the same comforts...
I’m not sure what you are comparing it too, but I’d guess the bounce comes from the off road focus. I know everything has been softened up compared to the escape with a little more room for travel as well.
