I have an order in for a 2015. Will pick up out of state at Dave Smith motors in Idaho. Asked about extra charges. Dealer says a $50 doc fee and a $150 detailing charge. Says detailing includes a "hand buffed silicone sealant".
- Other than the sealant, seems that a new car ought to already be squeaky clean without having to pay extra.
- Why would a "hand buffed silicone sealant be any better than a coat of McQuire's in my driveway?
(On the other hand, I'll be leaving the dealership and heading out on a month long road trip, so it might be nice to have some protection on there.)
Thoughts?
