I did it!! New Spyder 2014 RT-LTD owner!
I've been reading and learning a lot for the last few weeks here. Great info and ideas. Been wanting to get a Spyder for a few years and decided it was time to do it. Before all the reading I’ve done here, I was going to purchase a 2013 because of the great deals the dealers were offering on them. But after learning of all the problems the 2013 were having, decided to go with the 2014 instead.
On my first visit to the dealer, all he would do was to knock $ 1000 off the MSRP. Didn’t sound good. I had never taken a ride on a Spyder so I decided to rent one for a day and make sure it was what I wanted and something that the boss (wife) would also enjoy. After about 300 miles it I was certain that I wanted one and it also put a smile on the boss’s face.
So back to the dealer. Walked in and told him I would write him a check for $ 27,000 today ($ 3500 off MSRP) for the silver limited he had. He got that puzzled look on his face, then looked at the other guy standing there and off they went into his office. After about 5 minutes or so,came out and said he could do that. So I wrote him a check and we filled out the paper work. It will be ready for me to pick up on Friday.
I’m sure I will have hundreds of questions for everyone here so please help me. What I plan to do is get set up to load this in the back of my Ford F 250 that I tow behind my motorhome. I have it setup now for the 2012 Can Am Commander 1000XT that I have. Looks like with the loader from Rampage Lifts can do this. Any other ideas or suggestion I welcome.
Thanks for all that I have learned already….Great site with what looks like a lot of great people here.
