    I just picked up a 13' DCSB TRD/OR Tacoma in black and opted at the dealer for the protective spray (inside and out). I was wondering if I should/need wax over this? Im in South Dakota and the weather is holding out but it wont be long till we get snow, which means salted roads. I hear a lot of talk of mcgures stuff, and wizards. Reccomendations, if I do wax her?

    Waste of money. Save yourself lots of money and do it yourself. Get a good quality wax at Walmart, beats having the dealership do it. They probably use a wash and wax anyways

    Waste of money or not, they guarantee protection even if my seats get torn they replace the seat. My sister did it to her car and ended up driving thru a construction site and got tar all over and they fixed it no questions asked. Now back to the question...
