    They are supposed to, and most do.

    Just like the food grade place I just delivered to is supposed to check my seal before it's broken, but half the time they just have me toss it in the back.

    Over at TMI then. I only ask because the truck dealer group I work with is also a Polestar distributor (part of the same people on E. Walter Ave) and we have a few units tucked away in the corner of the lot on Antrim Church Road.

    Sorry about the misfortune.

    Wow!
    Let me guess because of COVID they don’t check vin#s anymore lol
    I guess they won’t be upset when a stinger load of high line cars pulls out the gate to never be seen again.

    What does that mean? Expensive cars? And what's a stinger? Is that the type of trailer couple? You know how a Reese hitch on your pickup takes a stinger, for example.

    High line cars are the high value ones.
    A stinger is a car hauler with a very low hitch pulling a trailer.
    With that being said a stinger can also be that thing that gets you a divorce after to many drinks at the bar and you park it at the wrong house..

    That sucks man.. I've forgotten to check vins before and found myself pulling off somewhere running back to make sure I got the right one once I realized what I did. That had to suck to not find out until after dropping it..

    I couldn't have been the only one..?

    That's a tough situation partner. Probably the right move just paid & done..
