Jan 23, 2009 -- Sweet spots in the car market

Looking for a little-known sweet spot in the car market? Clark has 2 suggestions to share.

First, try getting vehicle upgrades you want done aftermarket rather than paying the manufacturer. For example, Clark recently had DVD headrests installed in his Mazda 5 micro-van for $500. The same installation job could have been thousands of dollars had he gone through his vehicle manufacturer.

Second, manufacturers will have several models of what's essentially the same vehicle for sale at a variety of price points. So if you're in the market for a new vehicle, you want to buy the base model or no more than one model level up for the best value.

Unfortunately, Clark won't be able to answer any questions submitted via commenting. If you have a question, please try posting it to our message boards.

What others are saying

  • fusions
    I use the fusion razors because the cheap ones just don't do it for me (mock me if you wish; it's my face). Drying them does work; I make one blade last 3 or 4 months.
  • drying off razor blades with a hair blower
    hair blowers use 1200 to 1500 hundred watts of electricity. you're spending a dollar to save fifty cents! step back and look at the big picture. do the math.
  • razors
    I get almost 3 months by drying them off with my hair blower
  • Anon's razor agenda
    Obviously, the previous comment comes from someone with an economic interest in everyone using as many razor blades as possible. Clark is right--clean and dry your blade and let the profits of Gillette be damned!
  • Clark is an idiot
    Wait, so he skimps on $0.87 razors to cut his face up but he spends $500 for headrests? Not buying it Clark. Give up the razor myth.
