    Right on, Mike.  I had the same problem with an '86 Olds I bought in
    Ohio.  Fortunately the "logo plate" was only a decal, and removed
    easily (as did the free  advertising license plate holders.  "I did
    not pay thousands of dollars.............!"  On the other hand, they
    were nice folks to deal with, and the car even came with a full tank
    of gas.  I drove it for 16 years.<br>

            thing my Dad used to hate about buying a new car in
            Massachusetts.  The dealers would drill holes in your new
            car to advertise their dealership.  I remember when he
            bought a new Oldsmobile Cutlass F85 convertible in 1965.  He
            specifically told them NOT to drill the trunk lid for their
            dealer logo.  He said, "I am not paying you for your free
            advertising."  The day the car was delivered, right there as
            big as the nose on your face, was the metal dealer logo on
            the trunk lid.  My Dad blew up.  He yelled loud enough that
            I think they heard him the service department.  He told them
            the deal was off on his factory ordered car.  He had told
            them not to do it, but somehow the message never got to the
            service department when they were prepping the car.  We left
            the dealership that day without the new car only to return a
            few days later with the logo removed and the holes filled in
            and painted over.  My Dad signed for the car and took
            delivery then.  Always stuck in my mind and to this day I
            will remove the paper plates with the dealer info off new
            cars I buy right at the dealership here in California before
            I drive the car home telling them, "I did not just pay
            thousands of dollars to advertise for you for free!"  Echoes
            of my father in my head.</span></div>
