Christys gone Commando!

Discussion Starter · May 12, 2015

First new car purchase and admittedly freaking out a wee bit BUT! I did it! I bought a Latitude in Commando. (BTW...how can anyone NOT love the commando!? Lol) Thought I'd share my purchase price with any of you thinking of biting the bullet, incase it helps. (Ps if you dont think I got a great deal DONT TELL ME! Lol. Seriously eeeek!) Im in the Boston area and got it for $23,995. (MSRP $25,690). Negotiated online and over the phone between 4 dealers and eventually had two drop off and tell me they couldnt get to that price. ($3000 down). Im hoping the "Omg what did I do!?" jitters disappear a little every time I drive it!

Congrats!!!! The purchase experience the first time around is a mix of excitement and nervousness.
What options did your Latitude come with?
Commando is awesome by the way. If my wife wasn't in love with Anvil, I'd go commando too!

Congrats! We bought the same exact Jeep. I waited until the dealer got something besides black, gray & white. Bought the commando 2 hours after he received it.

You did fine on the price. I got EP & military which is one reason I bought a Jeep. $22k+ taxes & fees.

Wife loves it!

Are these front wheel drive or 4x4's? If they are 4x4's it sounds like a decent price. I'm not big on green but that does look nice! Have fun and enjoy them!

Mine is a 4x4 and I am assuming the OPs is as well as the MSRP for the 4x4 latitude with 2.4 and auto is $25690.

Congratulations on your new car. Lot's of people feel like you when purchasing their first new car.

And if you're a woman, be careful when wearing a skirt if you're going commando.

I didn't want to say it,..... so I quoted bwbike. >

Congratulations Christy.
Sounds like you did a nice job of negotiating it down to a good price.

Congrats! Haven't seen Commando in person yet so I'll hold out judgment like I did with Mojave Sand whose digital stock pictures are hideous but I quite enjoyed it in real life! I usually like Commando on the Jeeps. I'm sure it looks great in person (and in sunlight)! Enjoy!
