And, I'll add another scenario that I am guilty of, although many, many years ago. At time of delivery if something was askew on said new car delivery all bets were off. We'd do whatever we had to get the car "over the curb".....literally. Change wheels, radios, trim items, etc. Our "New Car Get Ready Dept." was like mayhem almost all of the time. We were delivering close to 350 new Oldsmobiles every month and were always robbing Peter to pay Paul. The mgr. of "Get Ready" had the neatest little gadget that I always liked, but never got and have never seen another; remember the little glass jars of lacquer touch up paint? Well, he had a little gun that screwed to the paint jar and had a hose that attached to a mounted tire....and....voila! Instant paint gun! Anyway, my point is some unorthodox stuff happened prior to the customer taking delivery. Fleet deals weren't as important, but they still had to get "down the road" and the parts pilfering affected them too.
I hear ya Loud-n-Clear on the wrong redline tach, Bill. Honestly, I'm not surprised it had the wrong one installed.
