Default Re: Should I have gotten some touch up paint with my new truck?

They are reasonable (much higher than a tube of touch up) but do a great job. I reported the dealer made me pay for the touch up but it was after the deal was "inked" and if I had asked for it prior to the sale, I'm sure he would have thrown it in as would most dealers. Only an idiot would nix a sale over a $7 accessory, IMO.
very true.
