Can't Beat Price & Deal

I recently (3/07) purchased a left over 2006 Ascender. With the high discount and the dealer offered 0% 5 year financing, It was an offer I could not refuse. I hated to part with my 2001 Trooper, but they offered more on trade in than I expected. So far (1300 miles) no complaints. Gas mileage is as advertised. Drove in mud, slush, ice in upstate PA two weeks ago without any problem. Seems to have more room than the Trooper and a lot more creature comforts (I got the Ltd.). Still some new 06's hanging around and plenty of 07's. As the car is a Chevy TrailBlazer clone, parts should not be a problem. 7 year 75K warranty beats Chevy's.
