Dealership option - Environmental Package

My dealership has offered an add-on to the sale called Environmental Package. From what I understand, it's an additional exterior and interior cosmetic protection. There is a 5 year window to have the service performed yet I would have to pay an additional $250 detailing fee in addition to the upfront cost.
Anyone out there have any suggestions or comments on this service?

Thanks
  • you have a great sales person,he,s trying to milk you for every dollar he can. say no and wash it your self.
  • Have dealer offer that 'add on' for FREE

    Otherwise it is exactly what you have called it an 'ADD ON'.....meaning more $$$ from your pocket into dealers pocket.
    These add-ons are source of revenue for dealer.

    Just adding the word 'Environmental' probably added another $50 to the 'package.'

    X2. Wax your rig once a year and spray the interior with Scotch Guard or something similar.
  • Forget it! It is just short of being a scam. They will wash the RV and spray a liquid "wax" coating on it, and spray a Scotch Guard type product on the fabrics on the inside. About $50.00 worth of material and an hour labor.
