    Default Dealer Prep

    Did anyone have an agreement on their dealership putting in a full tank of gas when they bought their boat. I swear my dealer told me this and now he is saying they only do 25 gallons, which leaves me 14 gallons short. With gas prices going where there are these days, anything helps.

    We didn't get gas with our boat.

    I know that Chrysler cars have 'Additional __ gallons of gas' now listed on window sticker. I think thats funny.

    I towed my boat home Monday and they only put 20 gallons in as well. On top of the 1/2 tank gas they didn't give me any tow straps for the transom. Not feeling the love I tell ya!!

    I didn't get a full tank, but I had 400 miles to tow, so I didn't care. it didn't come with tow straps. the dealer told me that it was required to tow out of washington. I looked at him and told him I didn't have any. neither one of us spoke for about a minute. he finally caved and said they would give them to me.

    I know that margins are slim, but a tank of gas or some $20 tow straps?

    On a $40,000-$55,000 boat I expect straps and some gas. Seriously, how cheap are these dealers? My boat came with both ( i actually watched the guy go fill up the boat), but to be honest when I spend $50k I expect it. I might not demand it but I definiltey would make a comment to the salesperson or manager that this type of cheapness doesn't please or earn customers.
