I'm curious if I'm supposed to and how much? I guess the how much will depend on how long he spends with us.
Thanks!

You are already paying for the PDI (directly or indirectly).
The PDI is part of the deal....employee is getting paid, dealership is getting paid.
A handshake and a thank you.

With all the taxes,bank charges,fuel surcharges,on and on I personally am not going to add some one else's employee's to my pocket book. This is just getting completely out of hand. The restaurants in this part of the country are beginning to tell you how much you should tip the waitress. At Christmas even the mail man has got his hand out, even though he makes more than most of his customers, if you want to call them that.

What IS it with "tipping" these days? It seems some people think nearly EVERYBODY deserves a tip!
IMO, the extortion needs to be outlawed, and all businesses should have to pay a living wage!
Yes, I tip wait persons. But, that's ALL!!

Thanks. I never know. Our tv was driven from a dealership over 2 hours away. I tipped the driver. So I want sure what the policy was, if there was any.
Good to know. Thanks!

I try and tip whenever a service person performs a service beyond the minimum. If they are delivering the RV to you and someone is going to spend time helping you get familiar with the rig, I think that merits a tip. The Delivery driver and the guy who is going over the rig are just normal people making a living. They are not super rich doing it for fun. An extra $20.00 may just make their day. You probably have just spent over $20,000 for the rig, so $20.00 is 1/10th of 1 percent. You never know when that kindness will be returned 100 times over. Your rig might be in the shop and only one of three rigs can be finished by the weekend. That guy might recognize your rig and tell the shop foreman you are a great guy and if only one rig can be done, finish that one. I tip delivery drivers, give the mailman, the UPS guy and the FEDEX guys something at Christmas. My packages are never left in the rain, I get help with the heavy stuff and people treat the stuff I am buying with care. Spread a little money and like fertilizer, it will grow good will.
