Toss-ins for a NEW Class A buy

Howdy folks. As a long time member here on the forum, having experienced the 'tagger' tag along life, then the 5'er voyage, me and the Bride are looking to dive into a NEW Class 'A' to carry us into retirement and beyond. We will NOT be full-timers. So before we negotiate a deal, was curious what folks would consider "toss-ins" on a new Class A rig negotiation. Thus far, our list only consists of Max-Air covers for all roof vents, quality storage cover and generator exhaust extender. Anything else to consider when the sales person comes back with "their final number"? Any insight much appreciated!!!!

    Even if you're buying NEW, check the age of the tires. The chassis may have been sitting for a year or more before the MH was built.
    Possibly someone else wanted new tires and they gave them the newest
    they had, which may have been on the rig you're buying.

    And a full tank of fuel.

    How bout just a lower price and no dealer add on sucker fee's, that's what I would want.

    When I bought my 08 Bounder used 3 years ago I said I would not pay any dealer fee's or walk thru fee or I will not buy and they said yes.

    Dealers can sometimes add on extra fee's that can add up to a $1000 or more..

    Sales price, tax, DMV fee is all the invoice should have or get up and walk out the door..

    Sewer hoses, water lines, safety triangles, spring loaded shelf retainers are just a few items to add to your "wish" list. :B
