Is there any negotiating on the "no hassle, no haggle" prices shown on the Tracker website? Thinking about a Grizzly 1754 SC. Thanks

Not much negotiating on price as far as my deal was concerned. I did manage to get them to come up on the offer for my trade in and got them to throw in a couple of accessories at no cost.

We've got an independent Tracker/Nitro dealer near me and they even take that "No Haggle" pricing serious. The only deals I got were on accessory prices added during purchase and even that was a fight since they thought I should just pay the Tracker website prices for items I was purchasing/installing with them and not the factory.
Thanks guys. I was afraid that was the case. I'll report back, if I have any success. I'm looking at a 2017 model, maybe that will help. Tom
No matter whether independent or BPS location all follow the same pricing. Tracker doesn't play the big markup "MSRP" games other brands do. Whatever you see online after you enter your zip code is the price of the boat. That being said, if a boat is a non-current model year then it can be discounted. An independent dealer can be as flexible as they want in terms of a clearance boat. An independent can also help you out with accessory prices or installation labor on a current model year boat, but the boat price cannot change. Some independents charge doc fees, etc. and some do not. Shop around.

I just put in an order for a 2018 190TX and there was no negotiating, checked several dealers all same price. I was able to negotiate some upgrades with my boat dealer but that was about it.
I'm about to order a 195 but I've bought 2 in the past and ur lucky to get $100 bucks off but as noted above you can strong arm them on extras the last one I bought I let it sit there 2 days but I got a water pressure gauge at no charge but cut the price no chance

Two things... I thought on non current boats they did drop prices so at this point they might negotiate on a 2017 at an independent dealership.
The other thing is that I can't believe you guys think that the "low" MSRP means they don't have profit. That's comical because nobody would be an independent nitro/tracker dealership if the margins weren't similar to other brands and you've brainwashed people to think that they shouldn't negotiate. Sounds like a win for them. Now I understand that they can't now but I remember around 2000 seeing/talking to independent nitro/tracker dealerships who were more than willing to deal.
Thanks again for all the replies. I ended up with a 2017 Grizzly 1754 SC. It was left over and I saved $ 1,100.00 off a 2018. MSRP was $300.00 less in 2017 and they offered $800.00 discount. So I'm happy with that.
Now my next question. I see new 175 Trackers with 45 lb. Edge TM. Is that enough for my boat, or should I spend another $100-150 for a 55lb ? Thanks, you guys are a big help.

Don't get the 45. Upgrade to at least the 55. My PT190 barely moved with the 46MG tour pro series it came with. I put an 80 on it.
