Shop Rate..?
Was talking with a friend tonight who has a small MH and we got on the subject of shop rates at the local RV dealerships. I can't believe what he was charged for a shop rate so I thought I would ask what others have run into out there.

I don't mean your local car dealer I am focusing on the RV dealership..!

Post your good deals and scarey visits..!!

$100 to $125 I think is the norm, just wished they all would fix it correctly the first time and when promised.
