So, I am in the market for a Kawasaki Mule. I find a 2017 "leftover" model at Gainesville Motorsports. The guy tells me its $5925. I'm interested, until we get inside.
We go to his desk, he takes my contact info...and goes to see his boss. He comes back and the OTD price is $7,600. Assuming 400 bucks for tax, there was NO explanation for the additional $1200 in charges.
I ask the guy and he says, "Freight and document fees".
Goodbye.
1. They misrepresented the price, by putting the fees on the back end.
2. There is no reason to charge freight for a standard item....especially one that DIDN'T sell and they want to get rid of.
Is this a common thing for dealerships now? I don't remember $1200 freight and document fees. TWELVE-HUNDRED DOLLARS? No.
