End-of-season values

[rboe]

There's a '17 across town for $9K, which is about $1K more than the local branch of that dealer was selling the same bike last week. I already called 'em and asked if they'd make me the same deal. They said they wouldn't. I'll just keep watching it. Time is on my side.

Edit: This particular dealer is well known for stacking ridiculous fees on top of the asking price, so I need to see it down to around $8K to hit my target out-the-door price.

Nasty trend here, dealer markup fees. I ask for Out the Door price and dicker off of that. They can sort the fees from there. I used to sell bikes and the only fee we added were taxes. So it's a sore spot for me.
