I know you are not a fan of hybrids but you might consider the Escape hybrid. A friend bought one used a few years ago and has had no issues with it.Sent from my Galaxy Tab® A -------- Original message --------From: Dan Penoff via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Date: 2020-07-01 09:22 (GMT-06:00) To: Okie Benz <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Cc: Dan Penoff <d...@penoff.com> Subject: Re: [MBZ] Oldest Son's New Car was W211 Nanny Mania So I spoke to oldest son this morning before he headed out, and he’s decided that a Ford Escape would be a good fit for him. It was one of the options I suggested, as being a plumber, he really needs something that he can toss his tools and gear into.I have begun the search. Lots and lots of 2008-2010 Escapes in the market right now, but darned near every one is at a dealer, dang it. Mostly Mom & Pop places, too.I patently refuse to pay dealer fees, as they’re nothing more than profit being added onto the cost. I’ve messaged a couple of big dealers who had some nice vehicles, and they have dealer fees of $800!!Nope.Interestingly, nearly nothing on CL, lots on FB Marketplace, mostly M&P dealers, and some on Autotrader. Any other venues that I’m missing? Seems like there are very few of these being offered in private sales.-D_______________________________________http://www.okiebenz.comTo search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to:http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com
