I wanted a Ridgeline, but it doesn't fit in SF parking spots and I couldn't afford it anyway
Dong - Lease one. It's $209 a month with $1500 down, I believe.

Oh man, shoulda bought it from me. =/

I can cut better deals than that. My dealership has way too many Ridgelines, and we're just itching to get rid of them to make more room for Civics and Fits.

Fred - They put the spare inside the bed so that it wouldn't get all dirty, given the fact that some truck drivers like to take it off-roading.

Joey - Did your friend get it from Damien?
Charlie: I know its put there to keep it clean and all but what if you had a full load of "whatever" and you get a flat. Then you'll have to unload everything just to get the spare. Thats what I meant. Other than this, this is a great truck! I pick this over a Tundra.

Well, this thread is a great place to post your deal so others will know exactly for how much you could sell one.

I would have contacted you but I guess I didn't know you worked for a Honda dealership. Are you floor or fleet sales?

I felt like we got a pretty good deal, but I would love to know how much we left on the table. I couldn't get anybody to go below $28K for an RTL with moonroof. Exactly how far can you go below invoice before it's not worth your while?

I see what you're saying and it's definitely a valid point!

I do floor/fleet/internet sales - so pretty much anything goes. Right now, the Ridgelines have $1000 cash back to dealer. If it's an in-stock unit, I can probably pull another $1000 back of invoice, and even throw in some dealer options (paint/fab protection, warranty, etc etc). It's not about how far I can go below invoice before it's not worth my time, it's more like I'm trying to make up for units at the moment. Business hasn't been too good.

Did you pay cash or are you financing? If you're financing, what APR did they put you at?

Great to know you can put such a competitive package together. If I learn of others in the market locally I'll try to steer them your way.
Thanks man. I can offer great deals to anyone who's interested in either Honda OR Acura.
