Default New vehicle confusion...

What to do...
choices...

2006 Toyota RAV4: Took it for a test drive this afternoon.
Lots of pep...but seemed to lag a bit between when pedal was floored until
OD kicked in. Also OD jumped out very quickly. Model with moonroof way
too confining...base model not bad.. a bit small and rear seat room
cramped.

2006 Toyota Sienna: For $800.00 less and a better interest rate on
financing/leasing, was quite reasonable. Much smoother in both power and
ride..... very roomy in front and back seats. But vehicle just looks too
big from the outside...and after all it's a mini-van.
After driving one for 11 years, do I want to jump into another?

2006 Ford Ranger: They are giving these things away on a 3 year lease.
$209.00 per month CDN for 6 cyl manual transmission model..no security or
downpayment, $1K in free accessories and a chance to play some stupid
'Open Suitcase' game to win money.
To add automatic and air conditioning you add another $50.00 per month.
The 6 cyl 3.0 liter engine isn't very powerful, but could fill in as a 2nd
vehicle and boat hauler.





Sounds like a Ford Ranger with air and automatic is in your future Don. ;-)

Nice looking truck. What is the towing capacity with the 3 liter?
