Nice "Arrest me red" cab. Really looks good.
BTW, really nice mod by the boys in Tomball TX as well. I wonder if it was screwed into the bumper... Please take some close-ups, I may want to have my local dealer do this to mine. Also, I noticed it's missing the "Save the whales" bumper sticker?

Many..many years ago I went to pick up my new car, I had specifically told the dealer NO stickers or dealer badges. It was on the sales order. When I got there the car had a big dealer sticker on it.
I turned and left without the car, picked it up after they removed it to my satisfaction and they were nice enough to give me a credit to the parts department for my trouble.
If they want me to advertise for them I would expect to be paid!

Better yet, add a second one on the right side to provide the proper balance.

My wife asked a dealer to remove their sticker when she picked up her Grand Cherokee a few years back. The salesman asked her what would it take to leave the sticker in place, probably thinking a set of floormats or something. She did not hesitate before saying, "$36,450."

It's the principle. You are buying a car not a piece of the dealer. A friend of mine bought a brand new Cadillac in NJ and stipulated "no dealer decals". When she picked up the car not only did it have a dealer decal but they drilled two holes in the decklid to install it. A brand new car with two holes drilled in the back. Needless to say she refused the car.

Good for you. I had a similar experience - they badged and pinstriped it. I hated it and spent 45 mins removing them (in the snow) to get rid of those monstrosities. I'm paying for a car, not to advertise their business.
