My wife and I were down to a choice of three used trailers at two different dealers, which gave us a feel for the pricing. We selected the best floor plan for us.
The deal included all taxes, fees, dealer prep and the walk though etc; or as I put it “I was going to write a check and I only had one check, so any additional fees etc. would be paid by the dealer”. The final figure was close to the NARDA amount. The dealer did include a WD hitch to sweeten the deal.
Was this the best deal ever? Probably not. Was it the worst deal ever? Probably not. The dealer made money so he was happy, I got the trailer I wanted for the price I wanted, so I was happy.
