@Plecostomus - A monument to failure: I'll go ya one better. Sticker price on a black-on-black Jeep Commander I looked at on my way home tonight: $62,490. Hahahaha. Shit, I can pick up a used '08 with about 5000 kms on it for $19k. Employee pricing better be able to compete with that!
@JackMaz: I was just running with the fact that it is a big, BIG car... but you're right, it does have a little Oprah happening as well. I was trying not to point that out. I hear it's sensitive about its weight.
NO NO NO. Do NOT take 0% financing. Accept the highest percentage rate you can convince the finance guy to write the loan at, and then split the dealer reserve with him. That's the amount the dealer gets for writing you a butt-reaming loan. THEN (and this is important), pay off the loan in one month. It's ALWAYS 0% financing when you pay cash, and this way you get a few hundred bucks back by screwing them instead of the other way around. This is why you pay cash. In case I didn't say it enough times: PAY CASH. (This message brought to you buy the "if you don't have enough money to pay for it now, don't buy it" public awareness campaign. Also known as "those crazy people who still have money for some reason.")
P.S. Make sure there are no penalties for early repayment, and also make sure it's not a front-loaded agreement (i.e. where you agree to pay the full financed amount no matter how soon you pay it off).
@bagumpity: I bought a new car in '04 with a zero percent, six year loan. I don't see any downside. For one thing, it's a six year zero percent loan. For another, I've been right side up on my loan every month since I bought the car (because of no accruing interest). I've paid off all my other debts since then, but refuse to pay this one off because I just simply don't see any upside of not having it. Am I missing something?

It'd be perfectly appropriate with a FIAT badge... if they blacked out the "I".
Tip your servers, I'm here all week.

Will tipping them make them serve my comments properly?

Fix the sloppy nose, reduce the amount of freeboard and you just might have something here, but in its current form, this thing is a pig.
Oink, oink, oink.

Anyone know why Fords have a much bigger gap between highway and city?
And, man that flex is ugly. At least GM has the vibe(which carries the bonus of being an efficient corolla).
