Default Im weak......

OWN A 2016 RGU with 53500 miles on it. Currently owe 12500. Stopped by dealer yesterday to pick up a new radiator screen and saw a 2020 River Rock blacked out Ultra Limited. Dealer said, 500 over book on my bike, 500 dollar credit, and 1500 OFF MSRP for the bike....WHATTTT!!!


This bike looks so similar to the 2017 CVO...Im tripping. Help me as I am seeing zero downside to this deal. WIfe even likes the E glide better than Roadglide because of wind factor....DAMNIT!!!!!

The only reason to have money is to spend it.

The downside is that payment gets extended for a few years...
Having said that, I've been looking for a 40th anniversary Mustang GT convertible for a while now for a toy. Went 2 weeks ago to look at one a dealer had. They also had an 18 convertible on the lot. The 18 was $2500 under book at 1.9% with extended warranty. I had the cash but damn, my investments pay more than 1.9%. I took it home...
