I absolutely knew this was bound to happen...
.......eventually. People were constantly saying "look at the Odyssey which is in it's 3rd year and still commands a premium".....never once realizing that it is a whole different ball game here.........Not many really want to be a player in the minivan game, but the super-hot SUV segment......well, now that's a whole different story!!......every time you look around there's yet another manufacturer introducing an SUV on the market.......since the MDX's debut there have been quite a few 7-passenger SUVs introduced, not to mention Honda's own Pilot and there's many more on the horizon
So, personally, I think it's a combination of many factors (Pilot, and many new SUVs offering MDX's attributes) that will eventually FORCE Acura dealers to play the game right!
........BTW, it explains why I've been constantly bombarded with calls from Acura dealers in the last several weeks (I'd visited several)........looks like I'm gonna have my cake and get to eat it too!! :2:
