Go for it now. Life is too short to wait until you get back, and then have to spend time looking for a deal and a bilke. Sounds like a good discount.

Thanks for your service!

No, I have to pay the sales tax when I apply for the title. No way around it but, thanks to the stimulus I'll be able to claim it on the taxes.

I'd be REALLY curious to know where you got more then $1,800 off MSRP on a 2009. Unless you post the name of the dealer, I don't believe it.

Of course, I'm talking $1,800 off an 09, not on a leftover 08, and I don't wanna hear it's before freight, prep, documents and other rip-off fees which is gravy for the dealer. I'm talking out of my pocket $$$.

I'm gonna help you with the math on an Ultra. $20,999 + ABS + Security - $1800 and I'll pay sales tax on the total, that's all.

Thanks.

.

The dealer is Mike's Famous in Smyrna DE. And what need to I have to lie about it??? What am I gaining by that. Don't frankly give a flying *** if you believe me or not. In fact this is the third bike I have bought from them for $2k or more under MSRP. Wanna see buyers orders?? Will that make a believer out of you???

+100. Your local dealers should know about the price breaks we get from Overseas Military Car Sales Program so make a few phone calls and see who is able to "meet or beat" the program's price.

Be safe and be back home soon.

Sorry again for the confusion. Shoulda read all the posts before replying to yours.
