100% true - anything PIO before it hits the vessel can be removed. My dealer gave me a list and asked me what I wanted and what I didn’t. And, I was able to add whatever I wanted as long as it was before it hit the vessel. I call BS as well if they’re saying it can’t be removed.Hi there. For what it's worth, I have a TRD Pro coming in and it was loaded up with Port Installed Options, like the $1,700 roof rack and other things I didn't need. At that point, it was just going into build in Japan and wasn't on the ship yet. The dealer had all the PIO's removed that I wanted and added in a few others I did want. If your dealer is saying they can't do that, it's BS. They won't be able to remove the moonroof, but any option listed as a PIO, they 100% can remove.
Also, @Hacksaw made a good point, if there isn't sales tax on a car in Delaware, where is the additional $6k or so coming from? Definitely dig into that.
