Yea, not much dealing to be had out there. Mine was $11.2k OTD. I think I got it for $9,3xx base price + delivery + doc fee + taxes + $235 "dealer setup fee" (which I argued was horses***). They didn't budge much. I tried for $11k OTD but that wasn't happening. I bit the bullet over the $200 since they've been impossible to find for me.Ive been looking at these myself and everyone around me is selling them at list plus delivery and they are not dealing.
In case anyone finds this useful....
I got mine for $9,499 plus $960 freight, set up, etc.. plus WV tax. They gave me 15% off accessories and free installation. KFI plow winch, mounts, Honda hard coat windshield, Honda hard roof, Honda rear panel, Honda A arm guards. I went back after the deal and ordered tires & wheel separately and they gave me the 15% discount; but I could have found the same wheels and tires for the same price other places. I think I was $13.5 out the door (not including wheels and tires) ...including tax and title fees.
I had another dealer about 2 hours away quote me a price on a camo P520. He wanted sticker price plus $1,500 freight and set up costs. Charged full price for same accessories plus over $1,000 for installation. It all came to about $16,000, which $600 of that is due to camo up charge. But that didn't include rear cab panel or A arm guards. I said no thanks.
You are going to be hard pressed to get any dealer come off of MSRP for the unit itself. You should be able to get discounts on accessories, installation and maybe some of the set-up costs.
Also, the salesman told me the dealerships received a message from Honda stating they should expect fewer units (of all models) this summer overall. He wasn't sure why. But I assume you won't be seeing enough inventory on the dealership floors to compel them to offer any bargains.

A lot of Guys I know get larger trailers so they can haul the extra things like generators and camping equipment coolers Etc. I like the convenience of being able to park into parking 2 spaces with a 6 by 10 trailer and not stick out. I don't have the need to take other items like many other people do. it's a good idea if you're going to haul more things to get a larger trailer
Red is just green going real fast. LOL
I bought a 14 ft aluminum single axle trailer a few years ago. Sometimes I wish I would have bought a double axle trailer for the extra weight capacity. It has the length and weight capacity to haul my ZT mower and my Honda Rancher, which is why I bought it. I'm not sure if I will be able to load and tow my P520 and ZT mower. I'm pushing the limits of my trailer plus the limits of what I can tow with my Taco without having trailer brakes. And I tow 3 hours each way over mountainous roads to get to my property.
One reason I like the single axle trailer is that I can move it around my yard by hand. It's hard, if not impossible, to do that with a double axle trailer.

These things are in short supply everywhere, certainly around here. The local place here is about out of everything, they normally have a showroom and outside lot filled with ATV's and SXS's along with a large remote warehouse filled with them stacked 2-3 high. That warehouse is completely empty now and yesterday when I was there they had 7 ATV's and maybe 9 SXS's in the showroom. February last year their warehouse was filled, the problem is they have been averaging selling 200 units per month but only receiving around 50-70. They aren't really gouging but generally selling at msrp plus freight plus $80 doc.
December I told them I'd take the first 520, which came in a couple weeks ago, without asking the price. When I picked it up I ended up paying $9499 + $80 doc so $9,579. No tax.
