Honestly that dealer has always been super strange. I called them a few different times when I was buying various sleds and they were always the highest priced by a good bit. Glad you were able to land on a fair price with them. I never was.
Meanwhile, Weller in Kamas offers MSRP + Freight/Set Up regardless of where the market is. They don't really deal when the market is upside down but they also don't rip you off when it's hot. Their shop is also way nicer, which isn't a sign of quality of work but I do feel a bit better about it and have been pleased with all their work. They have units in stock but I doubt they're backed up quite like Karl Malone Heber. I overhead that they sell ~350 sleds a year, both Doo and Polaris combined. I'd be surprised if they sold more than 50 non mtn sleds a year, probably all to tour companies.
All to say, I don't think this dealer is indicative of where the market is. I am sure it's slowing down but I don't expect there are many dealers as upside down as Karl Malone
