It isn’t worth the nagging sales man for anything less than $50. Those test drives are a good hour long at times.
Yeah, that’s a low return for the time/effort invested, but I guess if you enjoy test drives, it might be worth it.
I considered the CX-7 since it has a turbo-charged 4 cylinder and I expected it to have decent mileage ratings in a decent looking car. Well, it doesn’t. The mileage rating is the same as on my Tribute/Escape which has a 10+ year old gas hogging 6 cylinder engine. Very disappointing. I was hoping that it would be a “peppy” engine that got good mileage combined with a decent looking body which could hold a bit of cargo (that part is OK).
used to, you could get all sorts of stuff for free for test drives. I got a kenneth cole watch one time, and almost got a swiss army watch if I didn’t miss the promotion. I havent seen anything as good in years..
