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.

  • As others have said, shoot for 30-35% off MSRP and agree to an "out the door" price.
  • No, and my dealer tried to charge me a $1500 PDI fee!
    I told them I wasn't paying any of that and to just give me the bottom line, which they did and we made a decent deal.
    I guess they just have to try.

    I would shoot for 30-35% off MSRP plus tax no other fee
  • Destination fee is the only additional charges I will ever pay...Good Luck
