    You have two options....tell them...THIS is what I want, please order it, I'll wait the 3 months or so it takes to receive it. they dont HAVE to order it, but if they want your business they will. OF course they'll try to sell you a vehicle on the lot first..you have to refuse.


    OR


    tell them to remove the 300 dollar weather mats and stick them in another truck, and just FYI, the 300 dollar paint protection is just a stupid spray on thing on the very bottom of the vehicle (look at the bottom 1/10th of the doors, you can see it). It cost them probably 20 bucks to spray that on. I'd tell them to remove the 300 dollar paint protection thing or your going somewhere else.

    9 times out of 10, i've been successful. In las Vegas, they call it the "desert protection package" which is the exact same bullshit, I think it makes the trucks uglier because the grain of the paint changes in certain light where they sprayed that stuff.

    read build thread
    my advice is more or less summed up by that kenny rogers gambling song. good luck op.

    they should also be able to look around your region and find one fairly close to what you want without doing a factory order tho.

    ah yes, regardless, do you think it cost them $300 to get that on there? They wont think twice about removing it if it saves them a sale.
