    If you don't have a place to keep a trailer and don't want to deal with registration and maintenance, $150 isn't a bad deal.

    Heck, at that price they should buy two of them.
    There's lots of decaffeinated brands that are just as tasty as the real thing.

    With as much gelcoat that Ive licked off the new boats I've looked at the past few years I can't believe there are folks that actually consider financing such a purchase without a huge pocket of cash to pay it down. As it sits and advertised, after 10% down, estimated sales taxes of $4200 (not including property tax) and 240 months of payments with 11% interest the $12K discount on that boat will end up costing someone just south of $150K. If you know what you're getting into can afford it and want it then good for you. Go for it. Just like buying cars and trucks I think too many consumers don't look past the monthly payment in BIG print that they feel they can afford until they can't. Not digging on how or what anyone does to get the boat they want but dang. It could almost be considered predatory lending in my mind.

    I have never seen a boat advertised without a trailer. Frankly, that would just piss me off.

    Years ago I was looking at a new nitro tf180 with a 115hp motor for my first rig. Was negotiating with dealer and asked him what extras/ incentives he could include with sale like life-jackets, cold weather jacket, boat bumpers and the like. He responded that he trys to make sure all his clients get a new free hat with any purchase. I just got up and walked out and went and boat another brand the next week.

    Pretty common on Lake Lanier too. Some people don’t need a trailer and don’t want it in their yard or paying storage fees every month. My local Bass Pro Shop in Lawrenceville, Ga a couple of months ago had at least 20 boat trailers for sale. Trailers for Suntracker Pontoon boats, Tahoe Deck Boats, Tracker boats and a couple of Nitro trailers.

    Maybe some of the millionaires on here should send an email to Johhny Morris and tell him how to properly run a business.

    You don't need no stinking trailer...where there is a will, there is a way! Pay no attention to the fact the truck is smashed into a utility pole.
