Correct on the $3500 question. You need to also figure in cost to go to Ohio vs. local pick up.
On the back side consider cost of having a local dealer vs. having a Ohio dealer.
Leo's will not perform warranty work on units they did not sell.
As I mentioned Leo's can barely keep up with units they did sell!
That has NOT been my experience.

I have had them go out of their way for me... and that was without any incentive money.

The one time I had an issue with getting taken care of immeadiatly.... A 20.00 bill solved the problem. I went from a 2 month backlog to being on my way all fixed up in 2 hours.

Selling dealers like to say all kinds of things to influence you to by from them. That doesn't make it true.

What is a fact is that they live for the dollar today!!

When two customers are needing service at about the same time... The most profitable one will be taken care of first. WHY? Simple. The customer willing to pay more, can go anywhere he wants. The one beholden to his selling dealer is committed to that dealer.

Of course "good" dealers would never do such a thing.;)
LOL. A good dealer will take the extra money, and keep quiet about it.:B

He has to. He cannot let that money walk away. The other customer he sold to with a promise of service has already paid him and will be there anytime because of his financial investment to him.
