[71-LS6]

I had the same kind of deal, only with a twist. I ordered a 98' Dodge truck from an out of state dealer, after driving 200+ miles in my trade-in vehicle (a huge piece of worn out junk), I arrived to see my new truck with a dent in the nice little short bed. I had ordered an 8' bed without a dent. After sizing up the situation, and my prospects of driving back home, and finding anyone else to take my junker for a trade-in, I just took the new one, short bed, dent and all. I've still got that truck today as my back-up vehicle. After 300K trouble free miles, I think I got the better deal that day.
