When I order my Dak, that was one thing I told the sales manager. DO NOT
put any of those dealer stickers on my tail(gate)! I felt the same way..
no free advertising!

He agreed with no problem and even said that alot of folks ask them the
same thing and they had no problem with NOT doing the sticker.

I have to say that ordering my Dak was a very pleasant and uneventful
experience. The dealer was "Cullman Dodge" in Cullman, Alabama. Since I
did not live around Cullman, we did ALL of the debating, options, and
ordering over the phone and via the fax. The only time I met the sales
manager was when I went to pick up the Dak! Oh, except for that one time
I went in to see what they had available for accessory parts (chrome
tube side-steps and chrome tube grill guard). When I did go to pick up
my Dak, I received something unexpectedly as well... a $500 rebate which
I didn't know about.

Sorry this was a little long. Just wanted to share with all of ya'll
that not all dealers are created equal. There are some out there who
will work with you and not try to be sneaky about anything. BTW, this
was NOT a 5-star dealership.
