What did I miss regarding this 2026 Trailhunter ?

[LS13]

This seems to be too good to be true but What Am I Missing here ? The truck even had full paint protection applied on 2/17/2026 as reported on the carfax.

7,000 miles used truck. Original owner took the depreciation hit. Seems right. Not a fan of the pinstriping on the side and tailgate art.

I seriously hope no one in their right mind would layer the paint protection over those sticker art !

If it were just stickers the dealer probably would’ve removed them. So my guess is they’re either handpainted or under the film.

Off topic, but looking at the Monroney, never seen a Sirius 33 month extension plan option before.

My guess is that 33 months remain of the original term. My TH came with 36 months of Sirius, if memory serves.

Right, never seen that - most of the of the lower trims are just 3 or 6 months. Must be one of the Halo perks (granted that it's baked in at $350).

They put $350 on the sticker, noting factory installed, but I negotiated away quite a bit, plus there was a markdown. So I feel like something I wouldn’t normally pay for didn’t bite me in the butt since the total deal was below the original invoice pricing. Holdback must have increased last August so they could make their bread.

The sticker looks to be painted. That being said, that wouldn't be the reason I don't get that truck. Seems like a good deal. I think it just comes down to how much you trust the dealership and their warranty on a used vehicle. If it's a sticker, that makes it easy. If not, then I'm sure any body shop could find a way to remove it mostly easily.

I did before my Ice Cap and it was... rough. lol

I had a black Honda in South Texas. It got so hot it broke down the glue and foam used for the headliner. Driving with the windows down sent grit whipping around the cabin. The paint started flaking off like an overheated cast iron pan. Even where I currently live, I will never own another dark-colored vehicle again.
