That can always be fun with a licensing/paper work SAFU! Good luck.

Good that they are taking care of the SNAFU.
They say we will see it tonight and changed the forecast to a chance of rain Saturday. We will see.

I hope that they're the ones that are installing and uninstalling plates? Have you used this dealer before?

Yeah they did that..

No never used them before.. They bought the dealership where I bought my last 2 trucks and never had issues like this..

Plus I specifically told the finance guy what the correct plate was to be registered the day before.. The woman who does the paperwork disregarded it..

Bobby registered my old truck with his plates last week.. They registered my truck under his name and with his plate number..
How stupid was she to do that??

That and they would have towed the truck..

Bobby would have had a problem also, but at least his plate matched his registration and his name
