Best part I forgot to mention.
The heater doors aren't working so the dealer is going to fix them before delivery.
I'm hoping that'll give me a while before they break again!!!
  We could not figureout if they missed the hail damage or were just feelimg generous!
They gave above top book KBB trade value! The wife and I were afraid to leave the lot for fear they would change theri mind or figure out what they'd done!

This is the Jeep dealer who I have avoided for years due to me holding a crudge over his brother-in-law being the owner of a place I used to work too! I should have gave up the grudge years ago, but this seals the deal.
  We are talking about $3000 more trade in then we expected with the hail damage and miles on the truck!
