She's here!

Brought her home yesterday. This was not the truck I wanted originally, I had a FX4 with Luxury Pack and 20s on the way, but I do like the Sony stereo with the Sub. THis truck also has the Trailer Brake Controller, Moonroof and Man Step, but no Nav.

I asked the dealers not to wash my new cars or remove any stickers/plastic. I'd rather do it myself.

Here she is, FX4 Decals on the bed removed.

Congrats on the new ride.
I wouldn't let the dealership wash mine either.When I bought my 06 I could see some fine straight line scratches from their wash brush.They told me they would wash it before I took it home.I said no thanks.
When I ordered my 2011 I gave them the instructions "do not wash it".

ns_redneck, they do have a buffer that removes the swirls. I think its square. Ask around to body shops. Good luck

The first thing I did back when I bought my old '05 FX4 was removed the decals on the bed, I was going for the clean look, but I like the ones on my plain white one I have now.
