Everything worked out at the dealer on Saturday so we took her home. It was sad to part with the Pilot because it has been such a good vehicle, but it is always nice to upgrade.
2009 Acura MDX Technology and RES packages. 15,333 miles
This thing is way more advanced than anything I have owned and I have had to spend a lot of quality time with the owners manual trying to figure everything out. It has preferences you have to set for each driver, which are then linked to the separate key fobs. Its going to take a while to get everything the way we want it.
Congratulations Chris & Jen Im glad that you found a deal to your liking. The MDX is indeed an awesome vehicle and Acura design language aside, is the best value for your $$$$ over the competition.
How was the car buying experience with West-Herr Honda? I usually take the S over there to be serviced, and I'm happy with the way things have gone there. I'm curious to hear how things worked out on the other side.

The experience overall was good. They definitely did what it took to earn our business, including driving the car to Rochester just so we could test drive it. They were also willing to drive the car to us on Monday to take delivery, but I am impatient and wanted it Saturday so we drove to them. We had to deal with the normal sales pitch on the extended warranty etc... but other than that it was easy.

Acura may be headed down the wrong road design-wise, and I agree that this new "power plenum" look has ruined the TL, but I really don't mind it on the bigger vehicles.

I'm thrilled you and the dealer were able to work things out
By the time all was said and done, we were paying close to what I would have expected to pay for an 08 for the 09 and they were very generous on what they gave us for the Pilot.
After you factor in what we saved in sales tax compared to a private sale, we got from the trade what we would have expected to sell it for on our own.
