    I highly doubt the sales manager that appraises your truck will take note of this...

    Basically when doing an appraisal they will take a quick peek at the vehicle, short drive in some cases... pull up Nada and go 1000 back of low book... (take notice of how he/she will touch lil dings and scratches on the vehicle while infront of you in order to devalue it in your eyes... dont read into it... this is standard trade in schenanigans. But its always fun to see it happening infront of you knowing he/she is trying to set you up for the lowball on the first writeup) also... dont get tunnel vision on trade values vs sale price. They will try to get you to focus in on one number and sell you on that. Its just moving money from f.e.g to trade value (if this is your button) or from trade value to cover discounts on sale price.
    There is alot of sneaky fu*kery goin on behind the desk at a dealer :rofl:

    But to answer your initial question...
    I wouldn't worry about the sliders/cuts...

    Cheers

    I'd leave it, can't imagine they'd even take notice.
