Hypothetical conversation with parts department
Caller: Hello, may I please to speak to someone in the parts department?
operator: one moment please
Parts Department: hello, parts department.
Caller: Hi, I need to order some floormats. Can you help?
Parts Department: sure, what do you need?
Caller: Oh, what color do the floormats come in?
Parts: Well, they come in tan, grey, black. What color do you need?
Caller: Ummm...actually all of them.
Parts: Okay, how many do you need? Would you like one set of each color?
Caller: Ummm...actually, I don't have a precise, number but I should probably start out with...umm 3.8 million, yes 3.8 million sets...assorted colors.
Parts: Excuse me, did I hear you correctly, did you just say 3.8 million sets of floor mats?
Caller: Umm, yes you did hear correctly. And I have a question for you, does the price include shipping or is that extra?
Parts: I think we can get you a bulk rate.
Caller: Great, can we put that on my corporate credit card?
Parts: Yes, whose card is it?
Caller: It's a Lexus corporate credit card..I work in quality control.
Parts: Okay, got the information. They should be delivered to you within the next two weeks.
Caller: Wait..Wait, you can't ship them all to me...wait, I can't believe it they just hung up on me

That only happened with an ES350 ...
But still.
There's been a huge rush for Lexus loan cars to have the proper floor mats or no floor mats in them ... Personally I think it's a lot of hype about nothing.
Oh yeah, Hi everybody!
