Now I can get some sleep, picked up my Barcelona Red V6 Ltd. today!! Was a little disappointed dealer had to backorder my mud flaps, rear cargo tray and rear bumper protector, but they should be ready next week. Also have a date with the Tint Shop to get some 3M hood protection. Since this was a dealer locator from VA, and not a factory order, went through it to make sure all my options were installed -
4WD -check
Leather & seat heaters - check
Side airbags - check
Power Moonroof - Check
DRL's - check
Tow Prep Pkg - check
Everything was there that I had ordered, but when I opened the rear door, I noticed something I didn't order - a big subwoofer was mounted in the rear cargo door with the JBL badge. Could this one have come with the JBL sound system I didn't order?? Sure enough
it did and because I didn't order it, I wasn't charged for it, salesman stuck to the original price! Nice l'il bonus for being patient. This weekend if the weather gets into the 50's as they're predicting - out comes the Zaino!
Went over the whole vehicle, fit and finish was done well, clean, and paint was flawless. Took a look underneath and all my questions about DIY oil changes were answered - has the cartridge type filter just like the Avalon, AND everything is right upfront so you don't have to jack it up just crawl under it a foot or two, a DIY er's delight! Even talked the salesman into an oil filter element & some touch up paint. So I uploaded some pics, could have been brighter, as it was late PM when i shot them.
One other thing to mention - that baby has TORQUE!!
For all you folks who are sitting and waiting - hold on you day will come - I can sympathize with you, but it was well worth the wait!!!
