One note on "fees", as annoying as they are, at least here dealer fees are not taxable. The low upfront price with added fees is cheaper than just a flat price once sales tax is added on. As others have said the final price is what matters, not how you get there.
Problem is Dealer Prep and PDI are added on to the bottom line negotiated price. Much like Document Fees they are separate line items. The factory allows a budget to the dealer to get these rigs showroom ready. The Dealer Prep and PDI are dealer add on up charges that are negotiable or refuseable. Yes bottom line price is what matters but without these dealer imposed fees the bottom line would be lower.
