35 letters and 40 emails! eek Holy c**p you must really like blue!

A sale is not a sale if you lose money on it--it's charity. The cost and disruption to switch over the line to paint one special order truck is more than they will make on the truck. These guys aren't in business to lose money.

Post-COVID OEMs have figured out it's better to keep the lots empty and make a premium on each vehicle, rather than keeping the lots full of unsold inventory and have to give a bunch of incentives and discounts to get rid of them. That's the way things are right now. It's not 1970 anymore.
