And yes. A 25 mile drive is definitely worth a test ride with a Coda!
Most likely you won't regret it!
Hmm, well this retailer is offering the Coda Sport for $476 and they're throwing in a free tune up and one year warranty. I didn't know that bigger stores don't offer test rides. I'd love to shop at a local shop and help them out, but saving close to $100 also sounds good
Maybe I'll check out both and see what I like best.
Thanks again for your help!
