However, while up in Iowa looking at the 70A, the salesperson up there (naturally) went for the close after showing me the coach. I made a lowball offer I expected to have refused so I could be on my way and use their (expected) counteroffer for a little leverage when I negotiated in earnest with my local dealer upon my return home. To my surprise, the Iowa dealer accepted my offer on the spot. Well, I am a man of my word.. I made an offer, they accepted.. I signed the deal.. simple as that.
