I bought a new SUV from the "J" dealer last March...the dealer add-on sticker included almost $3,000 of extra stuff (mats, under coating, paint protection, wheel locks, etc). I told them I didn't want any of the extra stuff and to remove them. He said it would cost him more to remove them so just left everything in place without charging extra. They gave me a very fair value for my trade-in and I was pleased with the negotiated out the door price. I did have to go through the whole salesman/sales manager song and dance and was about ready to bail out when they finally made it happen. Patience, persistence, and homework!!!
