I'd be very upset. I don't want any kind of dealer badge near my vehicles. I'm not being paid to advertise for your dealership.
I always tell dealers not to put their sticker on my car. But I've had some do it anyway by mistake. As soon as I see it there, I ask them to take it off, and they've always done it without leaving any residue. No biggie.

Damn dealer put a badge on it. I would be like get that off right now.
so far the dealer I'm working with has never done anything (even on the used cars) but a plastic plate holder, which is easy enough to deal with... I have my own plateholder to put on anyway so it's not really adding extra time to take theirs off.

That was my first thought- to the dental floss!

Seems like most of the ones around here do the license frames- which I'll keep on for a month or so if I had a good experience.

All my dealer does is their obligatory license plate frame which is easy enough to remove.

Just got a notice that my production date has been pushed back again.

Was originally for week of 01-31-2021, then 02-07-2021, and now it is 02-14-2021.

I thought that production had been caught up.

Anyone with any ideas on why build dates are still being moved back?

I am trying to remain optimistic, but it is getting old seeing orders placed after mine close to delivery and mine keeps getting pushed back on the build date!

Not very happy today.......

Jim
