Fracking Harley dealers!

Ill be honest, I was checking out the highball on the website earlier. I just really want a night rod.

I like that!

When I bought mine I called all around or went in person and they all wanted MSRP, I called down to Cowboy Harley in Austin and got a fairly good price, but ended up buying it in Atlanta GA.
I called Paris since their add is always "call for price" and their price was MSRP...WTF

I signed up for the riders edge class at longhorn a couple weeks ago and it starts tomorrow. Im going to give them one more chance, they have a red '13 with ABS I want to check out anyway, hopefully its on the floor. When I called them the other day they gave me a decent price minus TT&L, just the asshats working when I went in that pissed me off.

Decided a few weeks ago I want a new Harley Vrod and the new '13's just came out last week.

Anyway, I go to Longhorn harley and all the salesman are standing around the front desk playing grabass laughing and ignoring customers on the floor. Usually Im cool with that rather than being hassled but when I asked for help it was just enough to say "we dont have that model" and get back to his buddies. Needless to say I just left.

Called Adam Smith Harley in bedford yesterday and was told they had exactly what I want. Head over there after work today and while it is the right color, it doesnt have the ABS/Security option I want. He said "I dont remember you asking for that". Anyway then comes the part that really pissed me off. They showed me thier OTD price and they want a $2.5k mark up on top of the $15k msrp and to add to that, they want double freight that harley lists on their site and another $600 to setup the bike. A $15k bike turned into a $20.5k bike. I might have been able to haggle my way down but I wasnt about to waste my breath haggling down JUST to get to MSRP on a bike I didnt even want.

I could understand if it was a special edition but it is the EXACT same thing as the 2012 model minus the 10th anniversary badging the '12 had. I know marking up new models is nothing new but just pissed me off to no end! But the ego in these Harley dealers is unreal, its like they are doing you a favor just talking to you.
