345 Freight
270 Cruise
375 security
410 dealer fee/ set up

20,399 total * 11% off= 18,155.11

18,155.11+ 1089.30(my local tax)+ $125 (dmv charge)= $193679.41OTD

Not only that they were also the first Harley dealer that actually would fax me a quote in writing not just phone chit chat.

Although I think it is a good price I may end up wanting that $410 dealer fee to disappear

I don't no if I am suppose to post something like that or not, but I am in noway advertising for these guy's I am just happy to find a dealer that will actually give me a pretty good price without even being in the store and sitting down talking shop

Think he might have been referring to the price you quoted as the OTD price in you post. Looks like it had one too many numbers in it. Instead of the $19 thousand and some change you had an extra number that made it $193 thousand OTD.

My impression was his post was good natured.

I think someone is poking at your extra 7 in that total price, making OTD 193k instead of 19.3k
