Is there any reason you don't want a used one? I bought my 2011 2LT/RS vert last year with 11k miles on the OD for $27,500 which I thought was a GREAT deal. Now I have 37k on the OD and I am very happy with it.


And btw, I was leary about the All-summer tires as well and just bought some Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires which are All season/high performance.
