I wheel my shit so they're already scratched up. I'd like them better if they were matte rather than gloss.

Sign your papers, quit reading TW, enjoy the truck.
You can mention to the salesman you have concerns of those issues you listed, they may or may not care. If they don´t treat you right, you can always take the truck(or your business all together) to another dealer. For them to check the tranny fluid properly it does take some time to cool down, so you may want to tell them now you want that checked, that way it can be done before you go test drive, otherwise you will have to leave it overnight after driving and signing papers, and that´s no fun.
You have a warranty, so any issues that show up should be covered.

To make your stay here at TW better, I advise the following:
Read the owners manual.
Oil change is at 10k, not 5k
Page 592 shows customizable features, most you can do through the head unit, a few a dealer will have to do.
The Pro grill is available
KbrO2´s look good on this truck
The search button is on the top right of the page(if you want to see the life of Bruce, click on the white truck above the search button)
There is a safe place to hang out here, (we will tell you about that later if you can write a Haiku)
AC only comes in LB, so when referencing your truck, you only need to say AC
If you want to remove bed side decals, its your choice, don´t ask for opinions here you will get flamed
And finally, Welcome to TW and congrats.

Where is this safe space you speak of?

Change mind and buy a used 1st or 2nd gen or a full sized because you'll get more for your money.

I "liked" this post after only reading the 1st line. I just went back and read the whole thing and holy shit, this might be the best post I've seen on here in a long time. Well done @daddy_o.

No, I changed them to Cooper STT Pro's.

Piece of advice. Go ahead and hit this ignore button on Smitty. You'll enjoy TW a lot more if you do.

Welcome! I am rather new myself, so a word of advice I was told but didn't listen to..... BLOCK THIS SITE!!!! Everyone is great and it it full of information, but I bought my truck thinking I was going to keep it stock... ROTFL- My want list is absurd.. These trucks are too much fun to play with...

Congrats again!!!

Is easier to warn people since you don't bother me.

If you don't know your credit score, make sure you do. If u have a great score u can negotiate you rate and month to pay off.

Warning, its full of chaos and fu@#ery, and lots of drinking, so most content will not even make sense but it will make you laugh.
