Q: Is there a way to offer an American spec SUV for sale to European countries?

A: it’s not that expensive to go this way.

it’s a few things like turn signals etc.

but the cost to ship it, doesn’t really make it worthwhile.

import fees, red tape & paper work

Q: where can i do free advertising about a vehicle for sale?
I have a suv for sale and dont know where i can advertise it for free besides on craigslist. I need to sell it and don’t want to pay a lot of money to do so.

A: If you want to get top dollar for your vehicle, you will have to spend a bit to advertise it. I recommend AutoTrader and AutoTrader.com.

If you want to avoid paying to advertise, you are going to limit the number of people aware of your vehicle.

You could try posting fliers on community bulletin board (such as are available at some stores, but this is really a matter of luck in finding a buyer!

The Blue Book Value is about $2,700 but there about $700 in break repairs needed. So I listed it for $2,000 in Auto Trader. Would it be better to donate it to charity for the deduction?

A: $2,000 cash is better.

Q: Lease almost up on Honda Pilot?
We have a Honda Pilot lease that will be ending in February. We’ve still very happy with it, so are considering buying it, but want to see what else is offered out there. Since we wouldn’t have a trade-in for a new Pilot lease, the payments would be much higher than we’d be willing to pay. Obviously SUV sales are down with the economy these days, anyone know what Honda will offer these days to retain it? Or suggestions for other SUVs?

A: you can trade in your lease, do so at the very end of your lease. if you really want to lease another new honda pilot, and you are happy with your current payment, try going to your local honda dealer. tell your sales person that you are interested in trading your honda (make sure you know the exact date of which your lease ends so you don’t have to pay any penalties), for a new pilot. and INSIST that you can’t go over your current monthly payment. NO EVEN ONE DOLLAR. be persistant but be nice. if they say, “no it can’t be done”, just simply say you’ll visit another dealer who can, get up and walk out. this is the smart way to do.
OR,
you can do the dumb way! which works better for the consumer. go in there, say you MAY be looking to trade your pilot for a new one. you haven’t made up your mind yet, haven’t seen the new pilot, maybe considering a Nissan Murano or Pathfinder, or Toyota Highlander. you and the sales person will probably ask you or just divert you to go inside. don’t let him/her! say you want to look at the pilot. you don’t even know if you’ll like the new one. try wasting their time a little bit, stall, see different colors, different options. you want to do this because after taking up 1-2 hours of their time, they will want to make the deal at the end! or else it was all just a waste of time. but know that you’ll probably be getting one that is similar in options as what you currently have… or maybe just one or two extra things.
when the sales person gives you a “pencil,” which is the computer printout of the value of your trade and your monthly payments, which will be much higher than you expect, just play really dumb… “oh man! this is much more than i wanted to pay.” they sales person may say, “well how much were you looking to spend?” this is the time to just be really dumb! whatever you are paying now, back it off by about $100-200. there is alot of room to negotiate on Pilots, as there is on most big vehicles. if it does not work, you could always just leave and try it at another dealer.

Q: Is this guy crazy: Wisconsin dad drives all the way to Kansas each week to hang on to a job in tough times?
JANESVILLE, Wis. – In the early dawn, after another week building cars, Michael Hanley leaves his job in Kansas. He quickly zips into Missouri, then heads up a ribbon of highway past grain silos and grazing deer, across the frozen fields of Iowa, over the Mississippi River and into the rolling hills of Wisconsin. Finally, he pulls into his driveway — 530 miles later.

It’s one heck of a haul: more than 1,000 miles roundtrip, 16-plus hours of driving, every week.

“I like to say I gave up an eight-minute commute for an eight-hour commute,” he says wearily, running a hand though salt-and-pepper hair as he watches his two sons play basketball for the first time this season.

After the aging General Motors plant where he worked for 23 years was idled about a year ago, Hanley faced a Hobson’s choice: Stay with his family and search for an autoworker’s salary ($28 an hour) in a county where more than 40 percent of its manufacturing jobs disappeared from 2006 to 2009. Or hang on to his GM paycheck and health insurance and follow the job, no matter where it leads.

In his case, it led to Fairfax, Kan., the same place his brother and two brothers-in-law — also GM workers, and now his roommates — landed. For others, it has been Indiana or Texas.

The long commute is not just a story of hard times, tough choices and a shrinking American auto industry. It’s also a case study of what happens when an aging industrial town loses an anchor, when workers too old to start over and too young to retire are caught in a squeeze and when economic survival means one family, but two far-flung ZIP codes.

___

Hanley is not one to complain.

“GM has been good for us,” he says. “This whole town knows that.”

For 90 years, the sprawling plant — it started out building tractors — became a different kind of family business. Through the decades, sons followed fathers onto the line, sometimes rubbing shoulders as they built Chevy Cavaliers, Caprices, Tahoes, Suburbans and more.

Hanley’s father and brother worked there. So did his father-in-law, two brothers-in-law and an assortment of uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.

But as GM’s financial troubles mounted, car and SUV sales fell and gas prices climbed, the automaker closed several plants, eliminating thousands of jobs.

Janesville — then the oldest of GM assembly plants — ended production of SUVs in December 2008, months before the automaker received billions of dollars in government loans and filed for bankruptcy. (The factory is on standby status; some hold out hope it will reopen one day.)

Some of about 1,200 remaining workers took buyouts or retired; some began new careers. Hundreds more stayed with GM, relocating, commuting or just waiting for an opening. The automaker has about 6,500 laid-off workers nationwide.

Even before the doors closed, Hanley began preparing for life after GM. He returned to college to complete two credits he needed for an accounting degree, but an offer in Kansas came first.

He didn’t hesitate. Auto work these days is like playing musical chairs. You grab an opening where you can.

Hanley didn’t want to lose his health insurance while his wife, Laura, was receiving costly chemotherapy treatments for a blood disease that will likely lead to cancer. The medical bills last year, she says, were in the tens of thousands of dollars.

“There’s no way I could possibly go through one treatment without him having insurance,” she says.

Like many other divided GM families, the Hanleys decided even though the job was important, there were reasons not to uproot everyone: Laura works at their sons’ Catholic school, the boys are immersed in band, Scouts, basketball and church, and the sale of a house was an iffy and perhaps money-losing proposition.

Hanley knew it would be a trade-off — financial security for a lonely existence.

His eyes mist as he talks about what he misses: dinner with his family, coaching basketball, going to the YMCA with his boys, wrestling with them at night, attending their concerts and games, watching them grow up.

“It’s an adjustment, not being home,” he says. “I probably sounded cruel because I said I wouldn’t miss my wife as much because she’s going to be there when I come back, when I retire. But those years with the kids aren’t going to be there. That’s the hard part, not being able to be around them. … I don’t know if I really appreciated it before.”

Hanley plans to commute another 18 months, until he turns 50, hoping for a retirement package then — something, he says, he “prays about every night.”

Laura, meanwhile, does double duty as a single parent. It’s all overwhelming — working, shuttling her sons around, keeping an eye on her elderly mother and worrying about her husband’s long commutes.

“The kids are tired of seeing mom cry because she’s stressed and seeing dad cry when he needs to go back to work,” she says. “We’re really close — the four of us. You can’t talk to
