Locate an Auto Repair Shop in Macon, Mississippi

I found one more for you and it's located in Atlanta. The only catch is that it also has NAV in addition to the 302A Package.... Here's the specific details- 2011 Ford Fusion SEL 2.5L Bordeaux Reserve Red w/ Camel Leather Rapid Spec 302A package Voice-Activated Navigation System Sticker Price- $29,745 TrueCar Best Price- $25,511* *includes $2k in cash incentives It is located at Wade Ford in Smyrna, GA. Ford is currently offering $2k in cash incentives/rebates on 2011 Fusion models IN STOCK. They also are offering 0% APR financing for 60months, for customers who qualify. The $2k and 0% can't be combined. Something I forgot to mention when I posted the cars in AL and TN is the issue of SALES TAX! If you buy the car from the TN dealer, you will not be charged any sales tax by the dealer. Prior to registering the car in Georgia, you will be required to pay a visit to the nearest Georgia Dept of Revenue office and write them a check for the sales tax! I'm always try to mention that to anyone considering purchasing a car in another state to bring back here. That way, they can hold the tax amount out their down payment, if necessary! I bought my current car in Knoxville, TN back in Dec 2005. I had planned to make a $2500 down payment, but when their finance manager explained the process for Georgia Sales Tax, I decided to put $1500 down and hold that other $1000 back to pay the tax bill. Prior that that, I had always financed the sales tax lumped in with the final sale price of the car and that was the end of it...but it's a little different if you buy out of state. If you were to decide that you could live with the NAV-equipped model above, you would be dealing with an in-state dealer. They'd collect sales tax as usual and it would be financed in with the rest of the loan. Plus you'd avoid visiting the DOR, which is always such a treat! =) ANOTHER VEHICLE FOR YOU TO CONSIDER, if you haven't,..... Are you familiar at all with the Mazda6 sedan? If you didn't know, the Mazda6 and Ford Fusion are both build on variations of Ford's CD3 mid-size car platform. The 2003-2008 Mazda6 and 2006-2009 Fusion shared identical engine and transmission offerings. They still share the 2.5L 4-cylinder as their base engine, but the Mazda has a 5-speed automatic while the Fusion has a 6-speed automatic. Despite having one less gear, the Mazda6 is consistently quicker in acceleration form a 0-30 and 0-60 by up to one full second. The Mazda's transmission is also more willing to kick down a gear or two when you press on the gas, while the Fusion tries to stay in top gear as much as possible to get the best MPGs! On the 2011 Fusion SEL, the 302A Rapid Spec Package adds the following- -Rear View Camera -Power Moonroof -SONY Premium 12-speaker Audio System -BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) -Reverse Sensing System The SEL with 302A stickers for a $28,065 The 2011 Mazda6 i Grand Touring 4-door comes standard with Rear View Camera, Power Moonroof and Blind Spot Information System just like the Fusion. It also has a standard 10-speaker Bose Surround Sound Audio System comparable to the Sony system in the Fusion. Only the Reverse Sensing System is mnissing from the Mazda, but with a Rear View Camera it seems redundant anyway! The i Grand Touring base sticker price is $27,615. For another $1835, Mazda offers the Technology Package which adds some class-exclusive features and the sticker price is still only $29,400! The Technology Package includes the following features- Technology Package- $1785 -Xenon High-Intensity-Discharge (HID) headlights -Auto on/off headlights -Rain-sensing wipers -Heated side mirrors w/ auto-dimming driver's side -LED rear combo tail lights -Mazda Advanced Keyless Entry & Push-Button Start -Driver's seat memory -4-way power passenger seat -Auto-dimming rearview mirror w/ Homelink -SIRIUS Satellite Radio The Mazda comes in a color called Black Cherry Metallic that I think you will like, since you like Bordeaux Red. They can have either Black or Beige Leather interior, but most have the Beige. IF you are interested in checking one out, I managed to track down one in Macon and another one here in Atlanta. Five Star Mazda in Macon has one (Black Cherry/Beige) but it has the optional Technology Package, so it has tons of cool features, but also a $29,400 sticker price. At Jim Ellis Mazda in Chamblee/Atlanta, they also have one in Black Cherry with Beige Leather, but without the Tech Package- the sticker price is $27,615....less than the Fusion SEL 302A,

Purchased my Odyssey this week in Macon, Georgia at Walsh Honda. My salesman was Ronnie and has been with the dealership going on 10 years and the sales manager was David K. ...I highly recommend both...that is VERY difficult for me to say about anyone on a car lot due to my past history of car purchases are poor salesmanship. Their selection is pretty small and they weren't able to get me my #1 vehicle in time, but my happy #2 was sitting in their floor room. I used truecar.com to get my vehicle price initially through my bank USAA. I was guaranteed $500 over invoice. That was a good price to me...especially with no need to negotiate...GUARANTEED. I purchased a white with beige leather and had a dvd system installed by the dealership. After the purchase I realized that I should have bought the dvd player from a stereo store and had them install it outside the dealership. The ONLY nice thing about it was all ready by the time our paperwork was signed. invoice vehicle $33,792.00 (includes destination $780) over invoice $500.00 doc fee $499.00 10" dvd player $900.00 all season mats $104.00 lemon & title $21.00 houston county tax in georgia is 7% My only BIG concern about the purchase was my trade which they knocked it up ($1400) within $500 buck of what i was HOPING for an hour after I left the lot the FIRST time. I don't recommend their dvd player and am going to talk to them about exchanging it out. I highly recommend truecar.com if you haven't used it before and don't like to haggle over price.

My first 5 tanks; 21, 19.5, 20.5, 20.5 and 20 mpg. Mostly driving back and forth to work, no long trips yet. Mick

Got new radio installed and front floor mats today. Took 50 minutes. They said it would take 45 minutes, I'll give them the slack:)

My radio had faulty display this morning, (4th time in several months), but other wise working OK. I didn't touch it and drove straight to dealer. Showed them the display, the rep. said he would order a new radio. I turned the truck off and radio went back to normal. Glad I didn't touch a button,,,,,,
