Other fees when buying 5th wheel
Besides sales tax and license plate, dealer wants $200 doc fee, $800 destination fee, and $900 prep fee. Does everyone pay this ? To me these fees are absurd. I will not be financing.

When I bought my 5th wheel the dealer wanted to charge a $400 recycle fee for the tires. I said when I get my next set of tires for the trailer I'll pay a recycle fee but not going out the gate. Told him if he didn't take it off the bottom line I was going home. He blamed the girl in the office for that one. They'll try anything to get just a little more of your money.
In AZ, the "tire disposal fee" for smaller tires is 2% up to $2 per tire, of which, the dealer can keep 10 cents, if I'm reading AZ Revised Statues correctly. Typically, you pay about $5/tire at the store. I'll call them on this next time I buy tires. :-) That $400 is ridiculous as you know damn well they would have turned around and put them on a trade-in that needed tires.
