Not surprised one bit. I can't be assed to look it up but I will bet a shiny nickel the cost of the military HUMVEE's was a tad bit higher than what GM had on the civilian sticker. :)
They are sealed to be water resistant, from occasional splashes during off road activities. This does not mean waterproof and can be left out in the rain with no ill effects. And if you want all the electronics to be truly waterproof you can expect to spend a lot more coin getting it that way...
I have a BD with the MGV, added the sound deadening head liner and it shows on my window sticker. But also shows no charge for it. Now whether it is in the truck when I get it is another issue all together.
I always took the "wash out interior" to mean the floorboard pans can be rinsed out with low pressure water in the event peoples feet were muddy/sandy.
And the Marine Grade Vinyl was for being beat to death with UV rays hopefully holding up better than leather or cloth.
If someone waves at me I'll wave back no matter what they are driving. It's a courtesy thing that I have seen people around here do since I was little.
And every once in a blue moon I will give someone a thumbs up if I really, really like their car. Though this is usually reserved for well...
Out of all the things I consider when buying a new vehicle the resale value has to be at the very end of the long list. Even if I did consider it the difference will be so small it still would not be incentive to wait longer to get one.
Got the built email on the 5th at 2:53 AM, tracker is showing shipped this morning. No info other than that but I did not expect it to change statuses so quickly!
My 2018 Mustang does the whole "Restart Now or Key Required" thing but here's the rub, it only does this at the post office. No where else, ever. Why? I have no idea.
Key works normally everywhere, but for some reason when I pull in the post office I can't get my car started again unless I put...
They require more maintenance than a dry filter, and can let the oil or particles through if not cared for properly. They can also gunk up your MAF if you are too heavy handed with the filter oil.
But if they are cared for properly when new they can keep more debris from passing through...
I use the same thing and I agree it's way faster than towels and doesn't leave the spider webs that towels will. Though I will say this change all the clamps with something you can really tighten up, because over time it will either blow the hose or nozzle off when it gets warm.
I've got nothing but good things to say about Chemical Guys, I've never used something from that I've been disappointed with.
And yes anything plastic will do fine with this or the VRP, VRP has a little more shine to it. But both the VRP, and Natural Shine have UV blockers which will not only...
I do and I use this - https://www.chemicalguys.com/natural-shine-dressing/natural-shine-dressing.html?gtmListValue=Internal%20Search
It's not a "snot" dressing, it goes on shiny but after it dries it just makes the tires look new. And it's great for textured trim so for the Bronco fenders...
Depends on how dirty the truck is. If it's not really bad I may just use microfiber/quick detailing spray. Similar to how I clean the door jambs, and truck opening on my Mustang after washing.
If it's really dingy then yes I will be removing it.
