Can my idea work? Car buying?
So, I want to buy a 2012 Ford Mustang V6 base model. I know… Income the comments about masculinity. Whatever. I'm in the snow belt of Ohio (I'm aware its not the safest option) and I wanted to get snow tires for it as well. Now here's my idea/question. Can I use the trade value of my current car toward steel rims and snow tires with the dealership or would I have to sell it privately or for scrap metal? I will be putting a cash down payment as well.
That would be up to the dealership. Best to ask them.
Forget trying to make a deal for steel rims at a dealership. Buy 4 (or 5 ) NEW, no-rust steel rims from a place like J.C. Whitney and have the snow tires mounted on them. You can take them off when the weather gets nicer… Like MAY, and just load the other wheels back on the car. In Ohio, and points north, I'd add extra coats of clear to the new rims and try and fight off the rust as long as possible. When the tires are balanced, I'd insist that the weights are mounted to the inside of the wheels so that your wheel covers will fit tighter and they won't chip the new paint off the road side of the rims so the rust shows more.
J.C. Will have wheel covers for that, too… Or drive to a junkyard in Georgia or further south and find a set of non-rusty old Ford wheel covers.
Parts departments don't generally take trade in of used parts.
As for snow tires, the best you can afford! Buy four of them, one each corner. Most drivers manuals tell you to buy four, but owners and drivers tend to not pay attention to this little item. Because they tend to think only about loosing traction. Do it out of the dealership, and notice it may be costly for insurance in your area, check the total mpg & ins costs before buying - insripoff.blogspot.it
- What other ways can I get big money for my idea besides patenting? I have an idea for Ford Motor Company. I'm only fifteen and don't know a lot about the business world. As I have learned, the process of patents is an extremely complex thing. Even Adult business professionals find it stressful. If there's an affordable and simpler way to patent my Idea please tell me.
- Typical lib thinking? Ford had no idea when it happened, had no idea how she got there, no idea how she left, clueless who was there? And despite that every person she listed as a witness made a statement in a sense said Ford was wrong… The lib brain… Get even at Trump…> yep - Kavanaugh did it.
- How does transferring rego from a SA reg to a QLD reg work when buying a car? My girlfriend and I are in Australia on working holiday visas and we're keen to buy a car in order to travel down th East Coast. We have found a car that looks decent, but the car's rego is for SA and we're in Cairns (QLD) and the rego is up in a few days. How will it work, renewing/transferring the rego from QLD and how much should it cost? The car is a ford falcon station wagon if that matters.
- Sell current lease car to buy a new car? Good idea? So I live in CT and I wanted to know if this could be possible. I was told that if I wanted to I could sell my leased 2016 Ford Fusion energi to a spot like CarMax a couple of months before the lease was done and if they would offer a higher price then the remaining amount owed on my lease I could do that and pay off the lease and then keep the extra money as a down payment towards the purchase of another car?
