Johnny,
I think this is wonderful advice. I wonder though how many dealers are going to tolerate customers coming in and giving the extensive open/close examination you suggest or, even worse, a test drive by someone who has never driven a coach before. I know there has to be a first time, but how many dealers will turn loose a beginner in a $200,000 coach? How did you get them to let you drive their coach, especially the one you were going to buy? I have had a dealer offer to take me out with a "cheaper"version so I could "ride" in it to see how it drove, but not turn me loose.
Keep up the good work as moderator.
