I read them and have a better understanding now, don't know why I didn't take advantage of this program long time ago!! Made arrangements with Purcell's tires on Gila Ridge road. Their good to go. $85.00 discount per tire! Thanks

Not in Yuma but Pet's Road Service in SoCal told me that the FMCA price was below their wholesale price and they would honor it. Won't need tires for a few years yet but have bought Toyos from Pete's a couple of times because they were half the price of Michelins. Last time (2010), I had to sign a waiver that I understood the Toyos may not ride as well as RV rated tires. Have never noticed a difference. If FMCA price gets close enough to the Toyos, I will buy them next time.

Why would you want to buy tires in AZ when you can get them in OR and pay no sales tax? There is a dealer in Eugene where I got mine. Excellent service and they do the FMCA plan. Superior Tire has locations in Portland, Salem plus Eugene

Good point, except I have one with some very fine cracking beginning that's seven years old and think it might be to risky for the drive to Washington? I've had tires done at the Les Schwab in Oregon and Washington several times. That's preferable to me too.

Purcell Tire in Yuma beat the written price I had from 2 tire dealers in OR, even with the state tax. We live about 40 miles from OR and find their prices to be high on most items.

Yes,the price of the tires may bring them back down to close to what I paid for my Toyo's,but I got a labor price of $375 from one dealer and $450 from another on top of the tire price. That was for installing four tires on the rear. They also insisted that they had to replace all of my stainless wheel stems.

That's my question. Anyone use a dealer in Yuma who is familiar with this program. I have the instructions.

Probably the only one that "may" participate is Purcell Tire on Gila Ridge Rd, just off I-8 on the east side. they are a truck/RV tire center and sell Michelin, Hankook, Goodyear and other brands. That is the dealer I deal with in Yuma and they are good to deal with.
