I traded in my 2001 Max SE when I bought the 2005. I owed ~$5100. They gave me 11,800 for it.

I threw in $1500 of my own, bringing my down payment to ~$8150.

I got the 2005 Max SL, with power sunroof, driver pref package, vdc + full size spare, floor mats, and splash guards for $29,775, before TTL. I took the 2% financing.

I also bought the 60 month / 60K Security+Plus Gold Preferred, with Guaranteed Price Refund, for $1100.

Final monthy price: $439.

Thats not too bad IMO, considering I was paying $389/month for my 01 Max SE.

Good point. Or, you could do like I did and take some of the money I made from real estate and pay cash for the car. My payment for my 04 Maixma = $0.

Insurance rates are higher in LV than they were for me in Atlanta. More drunk drivers. Think it could have something to do with the fact that the casinos give it away for free?
