When to sign and what to sign? New 2019 trailer purchase.

We just agreed to a price on a Grand Design 2150RB. We have seen the TT once, this past Saturday. Today over e-mails we have come to an agreement on price. We gave them a $1000 on a CC fully refundable deposit to hold the unit. We wished go back to climb thru it one more time, to make sure we are still good with our decision? They have sent me an e-document to sign, A Buyers Order. . Do I would to sign this and return in an e-mail? Or is this a document I should only sign after we have finished the final walk thru? My first time with a dealer. I wish not give them an up hand. Though I good with a level playing field. Do I sign or wait, until Delivery?

  • It was an OTD price and all lines add up proper! We even closed with the providing a hitch, equalizer. Think we did good. Now to just set up a delivery date and get thru the pre delivery done and done proper. So far a good experience. Fingers crossed.
  • If you feel you must sign, always write something with your sig like "pending final inspection by buyer".
  • Is that an out the door price? You need to know the bottom line without any surprises.
    Agree with others: Don’t sign or agree to anything else until you have had a PDI and have spent more time in the unit.
  • I've never signed for any RV before I did my walk thru. 3 different dealers and they all said sign after PDI. To me thats the sign of an upfront sorta honest dealer. Those that want you to pay before you finalize the walk thru are the dealers to stay away from.
  • Also be aware of that $1000 dealer prep fee that they will sneak in when you are ready to pick it up

    That's not the problem. It's those features and accessories you thought are standard when you walked into the showroom and then became optional add-ons when you are about to take home your unit.

  • Sign only when you are done with the walk through and it will be the same unit you've inspected and accepted.
