Agreed, the stamped concrete looks phenominal!  How do you like it thus far?



Not all stamped concrete looks the same. I have seen one that wasn't done too good and it looks too fake. And I've seen others that look great. The best thing to do is wet test oh wait get references and see the work the concrete people are doing.

And remember  ... ask them if their Italian as we all know that only Italians are good with concrete!  ;) ;D

So you absorb that cost wetone and work it into your landed cost I'm assuming? That's a great rate on a 12 month. Usually a 6 month is closer to the 2% range...

Does HS pick up the tab for this financing or is it up to the individual dealers? Do most pass this cost on to the consumer or absorb it? What's your rate on a 12 month deferral?

I'd be surprised if a dealer gave you that info.  I would hope they wouldn't give out that kind of competitive info.

I kind of like the deal we got for our Sundance.  In fact, was a factor (albeit a small one) in our decision for that brand.

We paid $800 less for the tub by paying cash vs. a year "free" financing.  They were very up front about it.  The "free" financing is a great way to go for people who don't have the cash.

usually if your dealer offers financing you can get zero interest anytime of year, but if might cost you more.

When Watkins offers special financing deals if costs the dealers less than normal because they negotiate a better deal than the dealers can get on their own.

So to answer your question tell your dealer what you want in advance and have them work you out a price, just be patient, usually the same as cash will cost less than if you paid with a check

Everything beside cash/check, meaning credit card or financing costs the dealer and ultimately you more so just know that going in.
