Really -- $1,500 for PDI ! Seriously???

Why would you care? The ONLY price you need bother yoursself with is "out the door". If he chooses to charge 1500 for a PDI then just make sure that's INCLUDED in the "out the door" price and use THAT to compare to other deals. If it's the BEST deal on the RV you want you'd be nuts to turn it down because of a "paper work" issue (but I see folks making that recommendation all the time here on the forum). Don't consider how they arrive at the price only what price they arrive at.

For what it's worth, EVERY dealer charges for a PDI but many or smarter than to let you know that. EVERYTHING they do for you is included in their price and TELLING the customer how they plan on splitting it up is just looking for trouble.

I hate to sound well,,,, dumb, but what is a PDI? something something inspection??

We bought our coach in Southern California and decided to take a factory delivery of our coach in Coburg, OR. There was a $1,500 up-charge as the factory gave us a tech for two 8 hr. sessions. It was the best money that we ever spent. The tech was very thorough and he spent a solid two 8 hr. days with us.

After purchase and working with our Southern California dealer, they were clueless on so many things. I really wonder where they get some of their help.

MM.

Now it's your turn. Tell the salesman you charge $1500 FWC (for writing check)

It had better be thorough for that kind of money.
