Then I added 10k worth of protection stuff (maintenance, ext warranty, paint/tire/rust protection, anti theft etc etc)
Call me a sucker for buying that stuff, but if I am going to spend 60k I want it protected. I shouldn't' have to spend a dime with the exception of gas/tires for at least 7 years. I can even bring it in if i get a door ding and they will fix it.

MSRP was $66,400 CAD, with negotiations and current incentives we settled on $53k for the sales price.

I just washed and waxed mine yesterday.
Also this is the best little gem ever for a black truck. After a wash and a spin in the truck it's a magnet for dust. These little beauties take a couple of minutes to bring it back to just washed and waxed appearance. I find I can use it for as many days that it doesn't rain or driving through water/puddles once that happens the wash cycle has to happen again.
Got my LINE X done and my tonneau cover is ordered and on it's way. Pics coming soon and next mod is my Borla ATAK Exhaust system.

Word of caution on the California Dusters - they work really great as you indicate however the reason they work so well is the reason to be careful. Make sure after every time you use it to blow it out really good with a compressor to make sure there is nothing trapped in their that can scratch the paint. Make sure you only use it when the truck is clean, but dusty. And never, ever get it wet. No that is gremlins.... Never, ever use it after dropping it on the ground. One tiny little rock will can yield BIG scratches.

Yup I wouldn't go beyond slight dust and never wet etc. It really only has a short time frame of use and if it rains or you've gone though puddles it's a no go and you need to wash your truck again. As far as dropping it goes I'd use the same rule I would if I dropped anything while cleaning a vehicle (claybars, cleaning media's etc etc) once dropped it's off limits.
