Ok Now What?

Dealer, not for long!

From the sounds of things the dealer won't be a dealer for very long!

The person with the $$,$$$.00 always ends up making the rules!

No business stays in business without customers.

:duh:

Give Arctic adventures in Rosendale, NY a call. Tom Ferry is the owner. they DO offer test rides! :thumbup:
If not them; Klinger PowerSports up in Walton, NY They also offer test rides. :thumbup: (Talk to Butch up there)

Sorry to hear of your dielema. I am different from some. I did not test ryde any of my 4 :spyder2:'s, but I was sold on them anyway.

Would I drop that kind of money on something I was not sure of? Not only no, but HECK no!

The other problem, is service after the sale. One of my ongoing rants is a dealer who treats customers of the :ani29: as outcasts if they did not purchase there.

Hopefully time will weed some of the less than customer friendly dealers out. We all get to vote with our dollars.

Let us know how everything works out for you. opcorn:

Thought I'd add some info to this. While at a rally where the Demo truck was at, I dropped the no test ride by the dealer to a rep. All coversation by the other reps stopped, They asked for more info, and phone calls were made. One of which was to HQ's in Canada! Another one was made after that to my local dealer. :shocked: :thumbup: I wasn't privy to what was said. :chat: But, I was told, ALL dealers are to have 2 demo units to be used for test rides. So we will see what happens. On another note, I posted about my test rides in another thread. I was a very happy man! :yes: Tom :trike:

take a ride to two-jacks in wilkes barre. last sept. I took 3 test rides on different occasions. the last time I stopped in for a test ride(and also the time I bought my rt) it was about 11:30am. when I was handed the keys I was told to be back by 3:45pm because they closed at 4:00pm

My biggest concern is 15 lifts, mechanics all over the place and only one certified BRP mechanic. Sounds like a problem waiting to happen. Loose him and what do they do. The shop I use here in Des Moines has three mechanic's and two are BRP certified.

Bill, he doesn't lose employees. LOL He pays then too well. Some employees are there 20 years and more! His building has three floors. Last time I was there he had 7 Spyders on the floor.

The top 2 floors are sales. The shop is downstairs with rear access. An elevator brings new bikes upstairs after they are assembled. A full service restaurant is to the right side of the building. That log cabin you see on the roof houses all the elevator mechanical. There is another log cabin in the rear that houses the generator. :thumbup: Tom :trike:

I may do that. Thanks for the info they are a Can Am dealer. Have you used them for service? How are they? Sales? Tom :trike:
