Have camping world give you their real price for a starter.
The affiliate store here list decent pricing, but then, on a $20,000 unit added a few things
Shipping $1700
Dealer Prep $700
PDI $350
Documentation $399
Several local mom and pop dealers had similar prices to CW, but didn't add all the horse hockey fees at the last minute.
Most that offer straight up pricing say so on their websites, check them.
Check around, you may find that another dealer is actually a better deal.
Would they actually charge shipping, If I'm buying it off the lot?
They did mention dealer prep & when I asked about what that means they said going over it to check everything & install the batteries & fill the propane.
Would they allow me to just show upp with my own batteries & fill my own propane?
Or is it better to let them do it all so you have that covered in the warranty?
Like I could see getting my own propane after leaving & then it don't work right vs double checking everything before I leave the lot?
What is PDI?
& they charge $400.00 to shuffle paper work? Documentation?
Oh & lets not forget the Insurance.
