I strongly feel that this is the area that will tell you how much your dealer values the customer. There are certain things that are absolutely essential to the use of a RV. Propane tanks that actually have LP in them, a charged battery, a sewer hose at minimum. You should not have to ask or negotiate for these. If equipped on the RV you are considering the spare should be fully aired just like the other tires. Other things like the water hose and such should be asked about. Not a starter kit. Make a list of the items and negotiate them. Some they will ok and some not. The items that they are not going to include in the price you can either purchase or perhaps you can select them to added to the bottom line so you have one total to pay. We negotiated a discounted price for a new WD hitch to be added and installed. We bought ours new last year but we already had most of the essentials from our previous TT. But we more than doubled in size so the WD hitch was a biggy. We did not have to ask for the proprane, battery or spare. They are included standard as part of my dealer's setup. If your dealer is only going to give you the box and wheels I would question what other corners they are willing cut. This can be very important later if you ever have to go back. My dealer also gives a 10% discount on anything I buy from them for as long as I own this TT.
