Has anybody had an issue with a dealership when you ask them not to wash the car no matter how dirty it comes off the truck? I haven't mentioned anything yet since it's not on the truck yet even though it was built early/mid July.

I'd rather them not wash at all, especially when I have a 4 hour drive home anyway. I hope they can just do the minimum/basic prep work needed for me to take delivery. My first stop would be to my detailer for a full paint correction, PPF install, and ceramic coating. Second is to my tint guy because no tint = yuck!

I didn't have any issues when I picked up my car. I had laid the groundwork with the salesman when I placed the order that I didn't want them to do anything other than the mandatory PDI: don't wash it, leave all the plastic on it, no dealer tags, no front license plate bracket (not required in my area), etc., and I reminded him again when the car was a day or two away from arriving at the dealership.

They followed my instructions to the letter, and I brought her home filthy, but it allowed me to do my own full wash, mechanical and chemical decontamination, paint polish, and graphene coating without having to worry about any additional issues their pre-delivery "cleaning" would have caused.
