Re: Atlanta vs Dallas - for buying
Sales tax in Texas for new cars is 6.25 %. Not sure what it is in Atlanta. If its lower do it there. If its higher do it in Texas. You will pay the the sales tax either way when you register. Might be better to put it all in the loan if you get a good interest rate.
Also remember that your trade-in will be deducted from your purchase price of the new Ridgeline in Texas. That means you will only be paying 6.25% on the remaining balance. 30K ridge minus 10K trade-in = 20K truck x 6.26% = your taxes owed.
Also I would consider getting your best price from Bankston and then going to Eagle Honda in Dallas and see if they can beat it. I would say they would be the better place to buy from but you are moving to Atlanta and its Eagle Honda's service that I am impressed with more then anything.
Big word of warning. David McDavid Honda....please do not go there. Any Honda dealer that tells you that they are selling you the extended warranty for your Honda at a great price, but then you find out later that it is not a HONDA WARRANTY! I was so pissed off. I did not even find out until a year later. That is just plain wrong.
Good luck
