They’re adding an exterior/interior detail as the first driver didnt put down a seat cover and stained the platinum white leather already.

Assuming the dent pops and roof re-paint come out well, I just want to move on. Not trying to nickel or dime them, I just want to enjoy the new rig

Geez stained seats too.... just dumb and avoidable mistakes by the transport company. I'd be pissed but I think your attitude/solution is spot on. Even if its not 100% perfect, on the roof as long as its a good repair you should never have to think about it again. Get it fixed and have a great time with it.

Good help is really hard to find these days especially in industries with labor shortages like the trucking industry. They hire people who otherwise would never have made the cut. It results in unfortunate things like this happening.
