【买车成长记】请教买车的问题:最好6座+

您说得对,不买Van的原因有三个,一是领导对大车比较打怵,怕开不好;而是我每天开Van上下班,单程30km,费油倒是其次,就是有点不得劲儿;三是现在家里四个大人一个小孩,如果要生第二个估计最少1年多2年以后,全家6口出游最少2年多以后。

...

确实是实情。
各家需求都不一样,再加上个性的差异,这才造成了大家买车的千差万别,这才使多个国家的汽车公司都能同时生存。

顺便一说,如果如您所说:"目前我的考虑是先买一辆Mazda5,...,然后等明后年家庭扩张了再买一辆Chrysler的C&T",则要规划好了。您明后年是“换”车呢,还是“新增”?如果是新增,拥有两辆Minivan好象有点过了;如果是“换”,两年之内换车,经济上损失是比较大的,还不如一次到位呢。
 
You can buy a 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan for $21500 everything included now. Have AC and other basic stuff, 3rd row seat can be folded and stowed. No power doors. Otherwise pretty adequate. Cheaper than a Honda Civic!
I almost bought one but changed my mind because I do not really need a minivan.

实在不行了,那就奔Van去吧。那时大家会看到一个totally的方向转变,希望不要晕头才行。:D

解释一下“不得劲儿”,其实就是自己的一点私心,觉着应该sporty一点、操控感好一些。这点上领导的意见肯定与我相左,:D。Caravan 3.5L的引擎比其他家耗油一些也就算了,毕竟重一些嘛,但是马力和扭矩也弱太多了。
 
多谢华侨大侠的信息!现在看了一下,Price是$32.5k,然后apply了一个$4k的rebate,这样的话税应该是32.5*0.13=$4.225k,有点吃不消。到底是降一下级买Mazda5(0%利率的确轻松很多,尽管每月都要付)呢还是再等等EDGE 2011版的圣诞优惠?纠结。。。

应该做一个补充,说明一下,呵呵。

我们的考虑是申请Line of Credit需要一段时间(印象里是~3周?),那么,假如行了的话,拿到这个已经是10月10号左右了,目前的优惠好像都已经过期了。而用我们自己的余钱购买的话,还需要借款才行。因此感觉压力比较大,呵呵。
 
不过这个帖子给我最大的好处倒不是车本身,而是意识到了Line of Credit的重要性。非常感谢西西妈和华侨两位的建议,让我重新考虑了LoC的重要性,发现用它可以调节我们的房贷,这个就是大头了,:D

因此,我把帖子题目前面加上“买车成长记”。
 
以前“集体智慧”于我只是一个很熟悉很顺口的短语,通过这个帖子我学了很多东西,才真正有了的感受,所以非常感谢大家!

刚注意到三四周的处理时间好像是Home Equity Line of Credit,普通的应该很快。

One thing to ponder:

My understanding to CAR loan interest rate is different from Mortgage.
CAR loan rate is FLAT rate, Home Mortgage is Amortization.

If Car loan rate is 3 % and Mortgage is 3 %, CAR loan rate in fact is much higher.

Hence, the best is to have line of credit, and use the credit to pay off a car to get full benefit of CASH bonus.

** The best time to buy a car in fact was last year!
Recession is over in Canada and I expect car price will (and should) go up.

非常感谢YINGWA大侠!这个信息非常有用!那我还是开一个Home Equity的先,车车的先看看,不好用就不用,呵呵。

只有两点:一是不要导航和DVD,因为价格加了但并不一定实用;二是reliability,一定要彻底赶上,改变很多人(包括我)的成见。:D

其余的,只能说,非常好!:cool:

记住是2011款,2010款以前DAIMLER管理方面的问题内饰只能ON PAR。。。尽管FEATURE方面还是不错的。。。。

CHRYSLER集团的车只有这几款是好车,300/Charger/Challenger, Caravan/T&C, Ram pickup truck, 其他2010款和以前的可以自动忽略了。。。

毕竟是mini-van的始祖,我认识很多人01-03的CARAVAN开了25万公里,BULLET-PROOF

不怕大家笑话,我的第一辆Grand Caravan开到了30万公里 (确切地说,是29.9万公里)!

最后不开了,是因为空调坏了。不修吧,噪音太大(因为是皮带连动,即使不开空调,也有噪音);修吧,车子还没有空调贵。

如果不介意韩国车的话。前2周,看到BANK街上的现代2009SANTAFE清仓,18xxx,这个车和EDGE差不多,有7座选。比VAN sporty多很多、操控感好很多。就是油耗和VAN一样。
