Well at least you bought a decent bike..just a slow Honda....do your homework before you bought that?
?..
I'm kidding.
I have a VTX 1800c. Dynoed at 109 Hp. I put 67,000 miles on it.
But then again it's a cruiser.
Post pics when you get the truck....I have no regrets when I ordered my truck.
You did good... My whole point is relax....it's a great truck....but I did order mine with Everything....just to make sure.

I thought about that. But for me 1200 running boards aint worth it. At first that why i went chrome pkg. But the 5inch round ones are nice too. Actually like em more after close inspection of quality and ruggedness.

It's a $720.00 msrp differents witch means its really like $500.00 differents with the chrome package, 6" running boards and chrome clad wheels, if you get allycart they are $1,250.00 for the 20" polished wheels and $495.00 for the 5" running boards.
I do like the polished wheels better but I no they been using the clad system for many years now, I started this trend/question to see if there was an underlaying problem with the polished wheels for them to change, if not and I really wanted the polished wheels I would buy them off eBay and keep the others for snow plowing. I also noticed that the king ranch has the same chrome clad wheels on them now. dealer has 6 on there lot.

Mine came with the chrome clad on delivery but I just asked my dealer to switch out the clad with the premium with the one sittin right next to it and I would cover the difference. No problem.

So, I take it that you should not use any Mother's Chrome / Aluminum Polish on the rims. Otherwise you will scratch the plastic.
Would it be safe to say that spraying with Pledge and car wax is the only safe route.
