Seems rather excessive.  When I purchased ours back in January 2011 there was no 'prep charge' on my bill.  However I was billed for the additional propane tank, batteries, and a few inspections and that came to $ 200.00

Do you have options as far as other dealers beside the one you are currently dealing with that aren't far far away?

First off hello to everybody, I'm not a owner yet but this weekend I was at the dealer and I was looking at the 178. We love the floor plan and the build quality.  When we were talking about the price he said there was a towable prep charge of $499. which consist of multi point inspection, ac check, water heater check, detail in and out, fill propane fresh battery, battery box, and a few other things. total value $1179 with discount $499. Now I never bought a travel trailer before and would like to know if this is a normal charge
