wtf is with $1115 in "dealer-installed equipment"

[Rjscharer]

Bought my wife a new Mazda CX-9 last month. Dealer add ones were $2,800! Wheel locks,$400 for paint sealer,
Body and wheel damage policy,etc. Went to another dealer who did without this madness.

We own the same cars, my wife drives a 2016 CX9, we have been pretty happy with it. Buying experience was also WAY better than buying a G70, dealer never attempted games, gave us a fantastic trade-in on our 2010 CX9 and $2k off the 2016 - which was just released at the time, we bought one of the first Signature that they did not even have on their lot, they found it for us - more than I can say about a few Genesis dealers I tried to work with who did not even attempt to try to help me to find the configuration I wanted.

My ‘19 is a white signature,my 3rd CX9. Great suv in every way. Dealership seems more organized then my
Hyundai/Genesis dealership. They have more service techs and bays. Harder for a dealership that has to handle
2 different brands with about 10 different models at one location.
