Destination Charge
Destination Charge - I see this on the window sticker as part of the MSRP. What is it?
Destination charge is the amount the automaker charges the dealer to deliver a new vehicle from the factory. This charge can vary among automakers as well as among different vehicles. In most cases the destination charge for a given vehicle is the same to any point in the United States, whether the car has to travel across town to a dealer in Detroit, or across the continent to a dealer in Los Angeles. Since it is a fixed, unavoidable cost to a dealer, destination charges really can't be negotiated other than via the total vehicle price including the destination charge.
