We had my wife's Fusion in the body shop a few weeks ago, and I politely requested that the shop not wash the car under any circumstance. The guy assured me that they only use brand new MF towels, but I held my ground. In the end, he said he also doesn't trust other people touching his vehicles...
I offset mine to the glove box. Bought a stow and show, but have no plans of installing unless the DPS gets real pissy. DPS have a 3 warning protocol for the front plate, trust me, I know. I have around 5000 miles and haven't been hassled in the Mustang yet.

My EDD and countdown just disappeared from COTUS. I talked to Rachel yesterday and she told me that the car is at the destination where it changes over from rail to truck transport, so hoping that the EDD disappearing means that the system is updating and my car is being loaded for tomorrow's runs.
Ford takes care of it, but the dealer could have pull with the transport company. I was just at the dealership and my sales rep was telling me about one such situation. She also told me that she was bugging the transport driver about my car, so maybe someone will be on the lookout for it and...
