Talk to me about Ford Territories and similar.

The citrus colour is quite nice though Ours was a really dark (almost black) colour that was all metallic so it would shine different colours in the sun.

When I saw it in person to begin with, I kinda went "urgghhhh..." but as I looked at it more, it really grew on me. It stands out so brightly, I'd never lose it in a carpark!

Just waiting on Manny the Finance Man to call me back... Cross your fingers and toes for me!

Non-standard colours can affect your resale value and make it harder to sell.

goodluck! we looked at mazda cx9 too that looked awesome! but out of our pricerange

[TeniBear]

That I'm not fussed with, I'm the type to drive a car until it's completely unusable. My current car (*sob*) will probably just be given up for parts She's still in good nick on the outside, but no matter how many mechanics look at her, they can't fix whatever's wrong.

[Party-of-five]

How exciting for you Teni hope you've recieved a good call from Manny My mum is waiting for their new Territory to be delivered they look like a nice car

[TeniBear]

Still nothing... Starting to think he's not going to call me back and I'll have to call him again...

No news or bad news ?

Bad. Apparently Scott hasn't paid off his old laptop (which is almost at the point of breaking down completely) and once that's paid completely we still won't be allowed any type of loan at all for FIVE YEARS. Words can't describe how furious I am.

So sorry hun, we had to get all finance in my name up until recently due to DP's teenage non paying habits all clear now but it can suck

Oh no he defaulted on the laptop?? Grr!!!

[PumpkinZulu]

Was he the only signatory on the laptop? Was it before you and he were married? I really don't know about this too much, but surely if it was under just scott's name, you could take out loans still? Or does it not work like that if you're married?

[~ Zarava Flutterby ~]

If they are both applying for the loan for the car then they have to take into account his history, if they don't want to take into account his history then Teni would have to apply alone but it would only go off any 'income' she is receiving not what they get as a family

[PumpkinZulu]

Ah okay. Bummer

[Miss.September]

If it's listed as an unpaid debt, then no, no chance. But if it's listed as a paid debt, then you'll probably find you won't have to wait the five years. We got one from a phone company and we got our mortgage three years after it was listed. (default wasn't our fault either which made it especially annoying - company kept sending bill to an address we'd moved from even though we'd remained customers of theirs and they ended up removing it).

ok I know this was a little while back but if you have ended paying off the debt of the laptop some finances company's/ banks are happy to still finance/ lend on a paid default. I used to work for a fiance company.

I also own a ford territory and love it.... I got myself a 7 seater one knowing I would end up having a 4th child. The only. Prob I have is it's a fuel guzzler... I spend about $100 a week on petrol.

[Enchanted]

Oh wow Zee! How much driving do you do?
We bought one in December and it costs $100 to fill the tank from pretty much empty. I haven't been driving too far since we have got it, usually only up and back to the shops a few times a week. Now kinder is starting and we have swimming lessons twice a week also we will be doing a bit more running around. I'm just glad DH's work pays for it!

[Zee]

Not all that much to tell you the truth, just to shops, pre school twice a week and now the daily school drop off/ pick up. We are waiting for ford to get back to us with app time cause we think something might be wrong with fuel injectors. Long trips is ok but around town it's horrible. I thought my vx went through fuel.... Ford did try and tell us that was normal for a AWD territory but we ain't convinced.
