We do not have a front license plate in Florida. It was kind of over cast outside today so I will make sure that is all I saw yesterday. Maybe I just slide into a parallel universe overnight like they did on the show Sliders. If so I hope next time I slide into a new world where we have a GS700 instead of the GS430.

Yes ceoart, if you gave the dealer a hard time unnecessarily, I hope you do apologize. Dealers can be difficult/wrong, but so can customers and they should both 'fess up when they're wrong.

ceoart, now you've pinned it down more specifically, why don't you just have a calm talk with the guy at the dealer. From your description it sounds like it might be related to their work but it also might not. If it's mild roughness it sounds like something they could buff out if it was their fault.
