Sounds like you had a bad experience with Mazda at some point. If you did that is the exception and far from the rule. I’ve had a few between myself, my daughter and my ex-wife and they were/are very reliable vehicles. If I am looking for a car that they competing vehicle in that category I would say Mazda has a decided advantage based off of my experiences. And customer satisfaction over the last few years agrees with me.

Always buy a new vehicle at end of the month.
But then again, with this situation it probably doesn’t matter...

Mazda wasnt on my radar but after researching, their reliability score is actually higher than Honda and Toyota and customer satisfaction is high.
The 6 is a great looking sedan and fun as hell to drive.

We make fun of baws with their 84 month notes on an F-150 King Ranch. However, at 0% interest you take their free money and spread out that note. I’m gonna take advantage and buy a new car next month

Mazda is so crappy Toyota is going to use Mazda engines in some Toyota and Lexus vehicles

Back to the original post. Mazda has changed their incentives since the virus. I do know the Mazda loyalty incentive went up from $500 to $1500. My niece bought a 2020 CX-30 at the first of the month and totaled it within 36 hours. She T boned a car that turned left in front of her while going about 50 mph. The second one was cheaper since she qualified for the Mazda Loyalty incentive when buying the replacement.

7 year financing at low interest isn’t the problem. It’s that people are buying $80k trucks and SUVs in the first place that’s retarded.

I called a dealer the other day to ask about that rate and term. The salesman said you’re only eligible for it if you pay MSRP.

Ended that conversation pretty quick. May try talking to some other dealers.

Got a salesman a few weeks ago to show me the sale sheet with the final price on a new Sierra, given all the incentives, tax, title and of course “fees”. They write in everything except the necessary “fees” which are printed on the sheet. Things like VIN etching that they charge $400 for. I said thanks but no thanks.

Same truck I wanted along with multiple of the same trim are still available per their website. At the time, they were “unable to come down anymore on the price”. Thinking about calling them back up given the current climate and see if they’re still unwilling to come down on that price.

So do we have a master list going on what companies are offering deals? Acadiana dodge offering interest free financing for 7 years on some of their jeeps. Thinking about trading in my Benz for a newer one if they are offering anything of the sort.

I am expecting them to come out with 0% financing for 84 months. If they do that I would jump on it immediately. You can take the money you would have spent on the car and invest it and have it pay your car note for you.

I’ll pay $350 cash for a good AR15. $150 for a Glock 9.
