Spent the day looking at crossover suv's for DW, and narrowed it down to the Honda CRV EXL FWD and the Hyundai Tuscon Limited FWD. The Hyundai came in $1,586 under the Honda, and has a better warranty package:
Honda; 3 yr 36K bumper to bumper
5 yr 60K drivetrain
Hyundai; 5 yr 60K bumper to bumper
10 yr 100K drivetrain
5 yr unlimited mileage roadside assistance
7 yr unlimited mileage rust through
Both are rice burners, but hands down outperform comparable vehicles in the American classes. The American car company warranties also suck, mainly because they're building junk, IMO. Pontiac, Chevy and Ford crossover suv's leave much to be desired, and are all more expensive. In fairness, we drove them all in the past month.
Aside from the better purchase price, how much$$$ could you assign to the additional warranties to use as a bargaining chip with the Honda?
