Is "Freight and PDI" charged by every dealership?
Just came across MB dealership that does not have "Freight and PDI" in its price quote for the new car and claims they don't charge it on the new cars while I know most do. Is there a catch?

IMO, you are going to pay it regardless. If it's not listed as a line item the cost is rolled into something else, They might not discount the purchase price as much or they won't offer as much for a trade in. It's a rare dealer that will willingly pass up charging for those two items.
