Destination Charges apply to both reserved and off the lot units?

This is the first vehicle I reserved, most of the time I pick up vehicles from dealers parking lot.

Do I have to pay destination charges of $1495 on the vehicle because I reserved it or do I get charged the $1495 even if I pick up the similar vehicle from the dealers parking lot?

you ALWAYS have to pay destination. Aka deal fee. The price of delivering the car from the factory to the dealership. Only way to avoid that is to buy a car AT the factory. But you can’t.
Even if you buy it from Atchinson Ford which is ~3 miles from the factory. It’s still a $1200~ fee.

thats why you see some sites list the base mode as a $28,500 car and others say $29,995 because Some list with the fee included.

Another thing Tesla has going right. No dealers

Thank you. When you say always, it would mean I have to pay destination charges even if i chose the available vehicle in parking lot vs reserving early. Am I understanding it right?

Base MSRP $xx,xxx.xx
Factory Options $x,xxx.xx
Dealer Options $x,xxx.xx
Delivery ~$1,490.00
Total sticker price $xx,xxx.xx

I tried to find one on google. But that was the first HD one that I could read. Just shows inflation. 25 years ago It was only $500 now $1500
