New Ride (NOT A VW!)


So we decided to trade the Jetta in this weekend. The last couple weeks the Jetta's illness got a lot worse. It was having throttle body troubles, ABS failures & turbo/boost problems...& about another 6 other things including it needed brakes, rotors etc. Rather than dealing with fixing up & risking my wife & baby sit somewhere or worse get in a wreak. It was time for a change.

The Jetta was Cat's ride so this really was her pick. We needed something bigger, AWD & reliable. After test driving the Passat 4MO, Lincoln MKX, & others the Acura RDX was her choice.

Not so funny note: When Acura was test driving the Jetta for the trade in, it DIED!!! They actually almost got in an accident. UGHHHH!!!

We ended up getting the one right off the showroom floor, it has:
  • SH-AWD
  • 240HP i-VTEC 2.3T engine
  • Technology Package (Nav, Voice Commands, Bluetooth, Rear Camera, etc.)
  • 18s
  • Color is Pearl White
  • Dual Pipes
  • Heated & Cooled Leather
  • HIDs
  • ELS Surround Sound, XM, DVD, etc.
