I agree, though... having the option to turn off something like that, but then having the car auto-reset it to the choice you do NOT want each time you shut off the car, is really, really, REALLY frustrating.

I find it strange how some continue to lambaste Cadillac for its naming convention while other makes like Infiniti, BMW, Lexus, Audi and even M-B can be even more confusing.

I assume the Santa Fe has the same set-up as the Gemesis (dash looks similar). Dedicated button by the shift lever. Just get in the habit of pushing that when you put it in gear. Becomes muscle memory, like pushing the button to turn the parking brake off.

Closing up the campground today. No more weekends away until April! (Well here anyway) Luckily my buddy who has a place here is a pro at winterizing and has the pump for the antifreeze!

I did tell the wife that like anything, you will get used to it (along with a whole lot of other differences going to a "modern" car). Turns out it is largely mental. She is worried that it won't turn back on when it needs to, and she will be stuck at a stop not moving! I politely pointed out that she was over thinking this. And that pushing the button was not a big deal (assuming there is one) though she seems to be adamant that it is a huge problem to have to do that. I think she is becoming a Luddite. Maybe should just keep the RDX forever for her, even without navigation of any sort or blind spot, etc., since she seems to know how to use what she needs to. Though can't make a call without picking up her phone to do it, that I know.

Currently at 36K on the 2017 model, and again.. no issues.
We leave it on, almost all of the time. Except in very slow stop/go traffic (where it would constantly cycle, like a freeway traffic jam)
Ours is easy though.. a button next to the stop/start button. Doesn't re-set, that I've noticed. Stays where you leave it.

I just find it funny that deNysschen played the same game at two companies, both of which now are dearly striving for relevancy. Coincidence? Hard to believe. He's the Brian Burke of the automotive industry suit set - has a few mediocre-at-best laurels, which he rests on heavily, sometimes leaves chaos in his wake, and because of a network of similarly barely filled-out suits, can always find a job and no doubt helps find similar for friends and/or family too.
The Germans may now have numbers more linked to power than displacement, but the basic convention remains the same, MB has been using a number/letter ideal for about 90 years now.

can't wait to see how this one ends up. Though if they let her keep the current car at the same payment (considerably lower than what a new one would go for) it makes sense to keep that as long as possible, and take advantage of year end holiday incentives.

2020 RDX, AWD base (I pushed Tech, but $ ruled). Red over beige (color combo my wife would likely get, could be a problem!). Not sure all the details, but ended up being $379/month, $2,550 total OOP DAS. 36/10 I think. MSRP just about $41k.
Should be a nice upgrade. In since the 2017 she turned in was also a base car, won't be losing anything (and gaining a bunch of safety nannies, laser cruise, and car play giving her the Navi she missed having).

Just checked Rodo. In my zip, an NX300 premium, MSRP $46,382, 36/15, 1st payment DAS is $554/month.
same car, sticker $43,082, (moonroof package/comfort package/parking package, the exact way I would have gotten it) is $516 month/ $516 DAS.
so I think you got some room to negotiate.

heard back from her. Deal is in limbo with the finance office. Not sure they will get it through or what will happen (might end up in a cheaper sedan, ILX or TLX, to smoke and mirrors a deal together that AFS will approve). Won't know until Tuesday but the finance guy likes her (3rd time customer) and when is is back in will start working angles, and promises they will get her in "something" so she is not carless.

She liked the way the NX drove, but thought it might be tight in the back. So she went to drive the Caddy again.

NYC, take mom to Darien, show her an F-Pace... gee, no one saw that coming from me. Treat her to Duchess.

Heard from my step son last night. Their inherited '99 Camry has close to 250,000 miles, and it's been nickeling and diming them to death the last 6 months, so it's time to upgrade.
They have been stalking the Hyundai Tucson; they found a used one, but for not a lot more money, they can get new. Found a 2020 Ultimate AWD with a $35K MSRP (don't offer alternatives; I tried and this is what they both want). His dad will help with the down payment to keep the payment reasonable.
The dealer offer and my calculations are about $2000-2500 different. Need to know the final selling price, the APR they are using (not top tier credit) and if there are any junk fees or charges added in. They should wrap up the deal tomorrow, if the numbers all check out.
Depreciation is not a concern, as they'll keep this 10+ years and run it into the ground. The warranty helps in that regard.

I use it as a sort of baseline, for a reasonableness check/ballpark. and a way to compare brands/models.
last year I noticed a lot more obscene deals. those days seem to be over.
