Truck just arrived at the dealer (Friday Evening) and I am going to pick it up tomorrow... Two questions

1. Should I have them install the remote start?

2. Dealer is offering a Simoniz Finish. Do I do it? Includes inside and outside for 7 yrs...

Please respond need to call dealer first thing in the am to give the go ahead...

Also FYI...

The 2010 Sport still have chrome grill. I thought it was changed

 

If it is the factory remote start, then I'd have them do it because they have to use their tool to activate it.

Don't think I'd do the Simonize.

The grille is supposed to be body color matched. It's been in all the materials for 2010. Not sure why it would be chrome unless they are still working through the parts issues which is a very real possibility.

Direct from the Ram website,

 

Ive been confused on this to. Everything about the sport says the grill should be body colored, but what Ive been hearing from people is that its chromed. Here's hoping that by the time they deliver mine in July its fixed.

 

If you build a Sport on the dodge website, it's pretty clear that it has a chrome grill.

 

There is an option in 2010 for a chrome delete. Even saves you $100!

If you build one online you should see it in the options section.

 

I would also pass on the sealer.

 

Just looked and it clearly says color matched grille on the website. Build one and it says Chrome. Guess they pulled a switcharoo again like last year.

 

Where do you see that?

You must be looking at the 2009. The 2010 definitely says "Monochromatic paint with body-color grille and front fascia." Just checked again.

Even the pictures of the 2010 Sport show the painted grille.

Oddly the other 2 cab configurations say body colored grill.
