ASK TRIX<\/b><\/p>\n

Hello Trix <\/b><\/p>\n

I been a biker in the past, and now i,m thinking about getting \n back into it. I,m interesting in the Harley Davidson model FXD \n Dyna Glide . I went to my local dealer by me. He gave me a price \n of $13,500.00
\n plus $500.00 for shipping and putting it together.Plus tax. I \n ask him What would it cost me to drive this out of the show room. \n He stated $15,155.00.
\n I asked for a catalog and when I got home I went through it and \n back of the
\n book, the prices of all the bikes were blanked out. I then went \n on to the
\n internet and lookup Harley Davidson web site and gotten the price \n of
\n the bike and found out to be $11,890.00 not $ 13,500.00 . I would \n like to know
\n if Bike Dealers can do that , by getting there own price. I don,t \n understand
\n if Harley Davidson makes the price for there product why are the \n dealer
\n making up their own prices.I feel I’m getting ripped off. Please \n give me some feed
\n back. ………Thanks alot……….Joe<\/p>\n

Hey Joe!<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Remember the “S” in MSRP stands for SUGGESTED. \n Dealers are free to charge you whatever makes them feel good but \n you are free to go elsewhere and make yourself feel even better! \n The “R” in MSRP stands for Retail but some dealers seem \n to think it stands for “Rip-off”. <\/i><\/p>\n

But here is the good news…you can get a better deal.<\/i><\/p>\n

Remember also, that many times the dealer may have added accessories \n that
\n increase the cost of the bike even though you, the purchaser” \n may not want
\n those “extras” added. It may take some searching on \n the net and some phone
\n calls, but with perseverance you can find dealers that sell at \n MSRP. Matter
\n of fact you can find links to some in the Houston area on this \n web site.<\/i><\/p>\n

It all comes back to “Supply and Demand.” The supply \n is getting better,
\n remember a few years ago you had to be on a waiting list for a \n year to get a
\n new Harley. And of course, you can also try an “off” \n brand. I have friends
\n who rave about their “N’arleys”! It just a matter of \n what you are truly
\n looking for. Good Luck and Welcome Back!<\/i><\/p>\n
