There's not "a" MS factory in Fort Wayne "the" factory is there. You may be able to get a deal there more so than through a dealer. That's really weird that your local dealer doesn't offer TS or Legend. Those are the top two lines Masters makes.
I'm going to be very interested in your thoughts on the 8.2 vs the others you've tested performance wise on the jets. I hope you wet test the 8.2. I have the 8.25.

To me its scary to make a deal with the factory if a delaer isn't directly involved. Master does not have a reputation for putting customers first or for their sales tactics so you really need a go between dealer to be there for you.

My impression is that their sales tactics are objectionable to the dealers not the customer. It's the local dealers they are screwing with their tent sales not the end user.
But you guys have been here a lot longer than me so...

You're welcome to your impression (sample of 1) but I personally would never trust any company that would be willing to alienate their dealer network and if they're willing to do that why would they be expected to worry about (let alone go the extra mile) for a singular customer.

I knew about the Fort Wayne facility, but I guess I misread that there was another factory around Indy. Fort Wayne is a 3 hour drive, so gonna be tough to do that on a weekday, unless we can get a Sunday time and Google maps shows closed on Sundays.
Local will purchase a twilight, no floor models and won't even sell LSX.
I'm still on fence if MS jets will be better. Most tubs I've tested we don't like the jets turned up all the way anyways so marking them stronger is moot point for us. Is that some we will get used to and want stronger jets later?
Not going to rush 10-12k purchase, so we'll see if we can find time for showing/wet test and go from there, but I think we'd be plenty happy with the Artesian Island Margarita Elite if we don't end up going.
