    Default Price compression

    I've been watching prices out here in the Great NorthWet, and noticed there are still NEW 2012s and 2013s competing for limited consumer dollars. Since the older 990s have been gathering dust for a while, the prices have dropped about $8000 from the original MSRP - however, it's now year end for the 2014s and they are dropping in price too.

    Yes, you can get a limited for the price of a 2014 base, but, for me, the 1440/SE6 was worth way more than the extra farkles on the "S" or "LTD".. fuel economy, maintenance costs, improved oil checking, ride-ability, etc. The bottom line is that there are a lot of great (new) RTs to be had for well under $20K... How kool is that???
