Ok, maybe someone here can help me. I have been to 6 dealers in the Valley (Phoenix/Scottsdale) to look at Rhino's and Ranger's. No 4x4 in stock and each have been given my name, number, busisness card etc. Each time I enter one of these dealers, I get referred to the manager who "checks his inventory" and ensures me "one will be in stock soon", "I see one in my warehouse", "We are getting a shipment next week", etc, etc. . I tell each dealer the same request, I am very interested in purchasing, please call me when you have one in stock. In 6 months, I have never had one follow up call. How do these people stay in business? Is it just Arizona or does everyone have the problem, that if it is not in stock forget about doing business. (by the way, I have entered one close to my home at least 4 times, never the same staff). I would really like to see one in person prior to ordering. I camped last year by several custome Rhino's and was amazed at their performance.

out here in southern CA, when I started to show interest I couldnt get them off my back. I had to start getting rude to them after I bought one. Its weird that you cant get them to call you.

The demand for a Rhino outstrips the supply.
I'd suggest asking if you could put a refundable deposit on one with the dealer - kind of a reminder.
I might have one available in July... I'll have to check. PM me if your interested.

OK, finally had a local dealer reply for a Ranger. $1500 markup on MSRP. Wow, Is there anyone out there who knows of a dealer who is not marking them up so high?
