This 2021 Dealer Discount and Destination fee situation is surprising. I still think it is just a big misunderstanding and really the issue is the dealers aren't explaining it well. I think what they are doing is on the left of my example, but people think what is happening is the example on...

That setup is really cool. Who makes it? Do you have a link by any chance?

Looks great!

This is excellent advice. I had an issue a long time ago that could not be repeated. Well I had the car in months later and it happened and the dealer tech really dug in to figure it out, and they did. They called me and told me they need the car for a longer amount of time. I was so...

I have family in central NJ about 1hr from NYC and 45mins from Phili. It's just nuts and so expensive down there. I can't believe folks chose to live in NJ and commute into the City. Talk about getting screwed! But I guess it beats living in a closet. I'm curious to see how the housing and...

Ouch. Yeah in NH its like $18/thousand, then $15/thousand, then I think $12, $8, $5 and then it bottoms out and can't be less than a certain dollar amount. So by the 3rd or 4th year its quite a bit less.

Yup. For the current model year is $18/Thousand MSRP plus other stuff (plate fee, etc). So my truck is $58k MSRP..... I remember when I got my 2014 Forester too it was close to $500 ish. It’s like an extra car payment or two! Everyone says it’s great not having sales tax In NH. The reality is...

It is similar in NH, but not an extra tax and no sales tax. It’s all handled during registration each year, which occurs during the birthday month of the person named on the registration. The reg fees are based on the MSRP of the vehicle (not what you paid) and reduce each year it ages until...

O that’s pretty cool. I need to look into any issues I might have driving back from MD with a MD temp plate. Might have to get plates before I go. Plus the travel restrictions keep getting a bit more difficult. Luckily it’s not too far and I have family 1/2 way.

Yeah that makes sense. I know it's sort of silly, but I think it is pretty cool my name will be on it. Have to make sure the dealer doesn't destroy it before I go pick it up. :)

I don't think they are tacking it back on a second time to be honest. I think their is a big misunderstanding about what is going on with 2021. I think FCA is now breaking out the destination fee from the total MSRP (which makes sense); in turn when you are working with a dealer on a discount...

Cool, I am excited about that. The Online Sticker I downloaded doesn't so it. - Paul G.

Got a notification today that my Window Sticker was available online. :) Does anyone know if FCA still puts your name on the window stickers for the vehicles you order?

I found it interesting that the OM manual pretty much tells us to not use any leather treatment / conditioner. I wonder who makes the "Mopar Total Leather Clean" product.

Should be picking it up in August. I guess I’ll have to wait and see. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

So I don’t have my truck yet, but in general I prefer to just dust my dash and other interior areas off with a microfiber towel. If it has dirt on it then I like the Armor All “Cleaning” wipes only. I’m not a fan of everything being super shiny or a residue left behind. These Cleaning wipes...

Great to hear they were easy to deal with. They could give you an inspection sticker for Maine? Or do you mean they forgot a NH sticker? I’m waiting on my order (see signature). It was built earlier this week and should be shipping to Maryland any day now if not already in transit. Hoping to...

Not terrible. But most are getting a higher dealer discount. Your Dealer discount is $5374 (~8%). Then rebates add $3k. It be better if the dealer discount was 10-13% then add rebates. I’m not sure what a “Government Fee” for $190 is. Seems like a way to keep their dealer fee “low” and add...

I drove thru the Allen Mello lot last night and saw your truck all parked alone by itself in the back. Beautiful truck. Congrats!

I dont think the VIN will be valid for a window sticker or payload stuff until it actually ships to the dealer. - Paul G.
