    Default Invitation to ride 2020

    Today I received an email invitation from my local dealer to test ride a new 2020 Spyder RT. It requires that I respond with my preferred date and time for the test ride. I'm scared to respond. ..... Jim

    Don’t be scared. The worst that can happen is that it winds up costing you a wee bit of cash....oops, a large bit of cash, err, a whole lot of cash. Remember, you can’t take it (the cash) with you.

    This is what we are doing in Texas. You should get a briefing, the differences between the old and new, RT and RTL, and then a nice long ride. Then comments, and a money saving coupon. The new one is much better. The more we ride them, the more we like them! Ride one!!

    Get invited. Go to the dealer and register, set a appointment to ride. Go ride. After you fill out a review, you are given a valuable money saving coupon. Mike, my counterpart on Team Arizona, will give it to you after the ride. The coupons are from BRP, and tightly controlled. You have 10 days to use it, or, it is void. So, after you ride, speak with a salesman. That dealer might have incentives, or, you negotiate your deal. Then, your coupon is on top of that!

    If you're willing to travel a little to visit a dealer in a neighboring state, how can you find their schedule? Also, is the coupon good at any BRP dealer?
