    I'm not 100% sure, but I think it was $450 mainly because the original dealer outsourced their tinting. My salesman told me it was about $100 more than they would've charged.

    Yeah, but almost a requirement here in Texas though! I wasn't about to quibble over the extra $100 at that point.

    I bought mine through Freeman Toyata in Hurst, but they did a dealer trade with Cowboy Toyota in Garland to get the one I had found online. I just checked my glovebox and Freeman didn't include the Cowboy invoice, so I'm only going on a comment my salesguy made about the difference in tint pricing. Mine does have the Toyota installed premium protection package which includes the internal & external protectants you mentioned plus the clear bra, but it didn't specify tint (which I'm guessing is going to be a dealer installed option anyway due to differing laws from state-to-state).

    17x8 go check fn wheels out. They have 16. See if they can do a partial powder coat. Dustin was helpful.

    Just bought a MGM Limited from a dealer in NJ Will post some daylight pics tomorrow. I did inspect the vehicle during the day and everything was perfect. However, by the time we finished the paperwork and all of that nonsense.... I finally walked out of there in the dark and drove it home. Pulled into my driveway and the exterior garage lights came on. Got out of the truck and saw this dent. Obviously the guys who cleaned/prepped the truck did this and did not say anything. I drove right back but the place was locked up. Sent two e-mails with this photo to two of their employees. Really not happy about this at all. A lot of money to spend on a vehicle to get it with a dent up near the top of the pickup bed.

    Here she is. My first brand new ride. I love it. I can't wait to get it out and really test the 4X4 capabilities.

    Thanks. will be there waiting when the open in the morning. Hopefully this will end well for both me and the dealer. Will give them the benefit of the doubt until they give me reason not to.

    Update - got back from the dealer this morning. The Mgr said well there is no way to know whether you picked up the truck in this condition or whether this happened after you left with it. However, we want you to be happy so we will take care of it for you. Have it in writing. So, it will get fixed when I schedule the appt for the remote start and bed extender to be installed. Sounds like they are doing the right thing and when it is all completed I will mention the dealer publicly giving them credit for taking care of it. Outside of this dent thing, they really have been good.
