  1. 1000-5
I'm looking for a 2017-18 Pioneer 1000-5. I won't even look locally for a 1000, due to it being NC and having to pay the in state sales tax. That, and most of the nearby dealers are jerks to put it lightly. I got my 500 in Tennessee and saved some cash so I thought I'd do the same and look there for a 1000. The shop I bought my 500 from is in Greeneville and they're a low volume store. So, I'm not gonna see much, if any deals on price breaks. Southern Honda in Chattanooga at 3.5 hours away want $13,800 but only have a red one. Abernathy in union city 7.5 hours away want $13,040 and only have a red one as well. I really seriously dislike the color red and I don't care that it's the Honda color. Ordering new plastics is $400+ more as well as it takes a long time to switch them out. All the models are pretty much the same from 2016 forward. One guy said buy a 2019 and get a green one for 2k more. That was very laughable. A 1000 isn't looking very probable. I'm not budging on Red either. There are no more 2017's available either.

Tri-County Honda has a 2018 LE for $18,000.

Are you looking for a base or deluxe? With the quoted price of $13,000, seems like a base.

If you are not intersted in the side door panels of the deluxe, I just changed mine over to the 2016 silver metallic for about $125 for just the hood and fender. It is actually a pretty simple swap, that I'm a little embaressed to say, my wife did in under an hour. She was tired of waiting on me and wanted to ditch the yellow. Might be an option. We did the full deluxe kit for $285

Ohio has state sales tax too plus wanted all the other fees etc. I called just to make sure

I didn't look for a price, just for a base 1000-5

There are states that don't charge a sales tax on this type of purchase?

A “friend” told me that Missouri, Kansas and Iowa don’t charge sales tax.

So far he’s been correct.
