Warning: this is gross: I cleaned up a death scene once where someone had bled out, and the home owner had just covered the spot with a towel. Let's just say "maggots".

Thanks. Well, perfect stock except two new holes in the plastic on each side. That kind of thing bugs the crap out of me but I will practice some calming breaths. At least they didn't attach them very well - less holes.

I made sure to get it in writing that they wouldn't attach any dealer bling to the vehicle, and I double checked with the sales guy that he remembered. The most charitable thing I can say about my experience with this dealership is that it has been "consistent", from the time I ordered in...

Do mudflaps come stock with the 2024 802a? I originally thought that the dealer had added their bling to our mudflap, but I'm starting to get the hint that the truck didn't come with mudflaps to begin with. Other photos on the forum of new 2024's don't have them and they're not on the sticker...

Hard to bring with you to NYC

I grew up in Maryland, but in Kensington. I went to jr high and high school in Bethesda, and left the state when I went to college. The only part of Rockville I knew was the White Flint Mall. But that area did look really nice.

It was funny.

I wouldn't dare write a question in a forum (any forum... any topic...) without searching first. I may be clueless about auto mechanics, but I'm not a complete blithering idiot just looking for abuse to be heaped upon my head. :) I really want to be able to use regular expressions in forum...

The reason this comes up is because I spent about 5 days at a hospice facility in what seemed like a decent part of Maryland (6001 Muncaster Mill Road Rockville, MD) keeping my dad company while he died. Sometime during that visit, somebody stole the cat off my mom's car which I had driven...

I wonder if it's coincidence that our new truck (which is so expensive that most buyers are going to be a bit on the older side) has much larger font than our old truck. My vision now is definitely nowhere near as good as it was in 2006, when we got the previous one.

Oh... I knew that... I was just testing everyone else. (Thanks!) So what are people doing about this?

I have searched the site and can't find this information, so I'd appreciate either some help or a pointer to where it's already been discussed. We just took delivery of a 2024 802a Raptor, and I'm wondering about protecting it from cat theft. This video seems be be saying the cats are tucked...

Yesterday, our green dot went all the way back to "ordered", although it still showed 03/13 for "in production". And today it has shipped. The window sticker link is there, although when you click on it you get a screen saying the window sticker hasn't been produced, yet. I almost feel as if...

I suppose I ought to stop checking the status every three minutes?

Is the "In Production" date supposed to change? Ours has progressed from 03/04 to 03/13. I think it spent some time at 03/11.
