Yeah, I doubt they are taking it down to aluminum. Having 6 coats of paint may not be a good idea.

 

I give up. Seriously think I'm just going to trade the damn thing in and buy a Suburban

Paint shop guy said he can buff out the damage. So I have to take it to Paint Shop on Tuesday (25th) and supposedly will get it back that afternoon. I had to wait at Ford for 2 hours until he could arrive late, spend 5 seconds looking at his screw-up and then leave

And of course got the same line from the Dealership that I've heard every other time it was screwed up while painting. Apparently I'm a bad paint magnet.

 

Wait, so they can buff out where the burned through the paint?

 

apparently

 

Tylus...don't do it. The one's I've been in recently (loaded 2010s) had less cargo and less passenger room than the Expy. The front seat occupant space is narrower as well. Much more leg width room in the Expy. The 3rd row in the Sub is really only good for teens and younger as the leg room there is marginal at best.
