Same here. Even if the dealer sets it up, they would or should exclude it from the purchase agreement since it's a variable that could go up. In my case it did, so I secured my own shipper that costs less and could deliver within my schedule.

BTW, I believe most of the shippers are independent businesses anyways and there doesn't appear to be any alliance with dealers. On top of the additional overhead the dealer charge, the dealer's preferred shipper may not have a truck ready to pickup or deliver to your destination.
