New Passport owner here.
Got a regular (non-elite) Trailsport (Black) from South Tacoma Honda @ $46,000.
It was sitting on lot for a few weeks…and they offered the discount thru TrueCar.
Couldn’t get one in Alaska without a long multi-month waitlist and premium markup. Saved myself at least $5k over what Alaska dealers wanted.
Spent $400 one way plane ticket to Washington
$200 in hotels and $100 in food/snacks and drinks.
About $500 in gas and 3 days drive back up north on ALCAN hwy.
2300 miles later thru the ALCAN no problem!
I think the Trailsport rating DEFINITELY Holds up and she’s certainly broke in.
IMHO - Totally Worth it!
