My new truck is gone. I am driving a beat-up 2006 Impala for right now. :(

they're detailing it for me. since i bought it on saturday without advance notice, they had no one to do a real cleanup. i will relieve my withdrawal symptoms tomorrow evening after work, if all goes well. meantime, i can't stand it.

Whoa...return it from buyer's remorse? Or did it get totalled? Stolen? Hit by a meteorite?

Ah..didn't see that. And I just got new glasses yesterday.. :)

Haha, that's a good one :smilewide:

Be nice to get her properly detailed...

Yup, they did a good job, except for that danged tire dressing stuff. Now I have shiny, greasy tires instead of clean, dry, black ones. It'll wear off soon enough, though. I'm lovin' this thing.

Use some dishwasher detergent on the tires. It'll take it right off. I hate it when they overdo that stuff, and some dealers use tranny fluid instead of tire shine. I usually just spray a spritz of tire shine onto a rag and wipe it all the way around - gives it a nicer, subtle, even shine.
