Now that's a market adjustment!

On the floor at my local dealer with a SOLD sign on the dash. Managed to add the sticker.

Oh yeah. When I took delivery of my car, all I added was tint. I told my dealer that if I found anything like nitrogen, paint sealant, hole drilled for license plate brackets, I'd refuse delivery.

$400 for nitrogen. You have to be a special kind of stupid.

Yep!
The issue I have is not the stupid buyer but rather the dealer attitude -> My customers are stupid.
Just add the market adjustment and be done with it - if you think you can get it go for it - just don't insult.
