The Buying Experience!
As I mentioned in an earlier post, we bought our Coach from LazyDays RV in Tampa, FL. These folks have almost 150 salepeople, so the experience may be quite different buying from them than from a more "standard" sized dealer.
We found the purchase process to be fairly easy; however, despite their protestations to the opposite, it can be compared to buying an automobile when the final haggling commences. Salesperson writes a proposed deal.....off to sales manager. Sales manager stops by to introduce himself in the absence of the salesperson. Salesperson returns with slightly higher price than we wanted to pay. After a discussion he returns to sales manager who then comes back with salesperson.
Done deal. Then, of course, off to see the financial people and to get a quote from their insurance department.
Now we visit with the man who describes our "delivery process"....that is another post and is more than a little interesting.
