My round trip drive to work is about 32 kms, I may add another 40 per weekend. I might put on 12,000 per year including a few road trips.

Dealer is asking about $38,000 for this vehicle - other dealerships for same vehicle for 2010 model (similar mileage) asking about the same price.

What's would you think a fair starting offer would be and what would one expect to end up at?

Thanks.

have you tried just looking it up at Kelley Blue Book based on year, model, make, mileage?

We put on about 15,000 a year. Bought a 2008 in 2010 that was a rental; had about 60k put on over 20 or so months when we bought it. There has been no problems so far.

I don't think there is a big issue with prior rentals. Think about how some people treat their cars and compare that to a rental company. I don't think one would be obviously worse than the other. For me, I don't think it's too much about the year, but rather the mileage of the car that sets its resale value

15,000

But if I lived in Okotoks, it would probably only be about 10,000

About 30 000 a year, but that is more than the average Jo for sure.

Bought a minivan to accommodate us and our three kids. It had high mileage on it for being only two years old but it was a rental, so that explained the mileage. Haven't had a problem with it, other than the fact that we are driving a minivan. Have had it for five years now.

Yup, same for me lately. It would be a lot more if not for my knee injury, which has prevented frequent mountain-oriented driving.

I just bought a 2007 with 68,000 kms on it, which I was pretty pumped about. I'll probably put on close to 20,000km/yr though

Many thanks for all the feedback in this thread - wasn't expecting this much, to be honest.
