I bargined my best deal on my F-150 w/ dealer throwing in a drop-in bed liner "free"...

Some numnut in their prep crew proceeded to strip 3 of 6 screws attaching tailgate liner on. There are no threaded lugs etc so it's fastener mis-match w/ oversize SS washers to accomodate where the airtool's spin friction softened plastic and nearly pulled through on 4 of 6. With close inspection it could've been spotted on delivery...

Worth mentioning; for me it was only noticed 500 miles from dealer with missing fasteners lost out on Interstate.

 

Go back now...tell them you want it replaced with a new one...Be upset that they would do such poor workmanship on your Ford truck...

 

Aye, point of pride involved by getting the price I did - They will never hear a discouraging word from me about this truck. (~think 10k unspent~)

Also note: odor killers or air-fresheners & cleaners applied to showroom vehicles accumulate on carpets - don't sort your entire CD collection on passengers side carpet the day you bring it home. Every single one of my 12 had carpet weave etched into them & went unplayable while 500 miles from home >

Yet they will never hear me whine > This truck is blinkin perfect!

 

That sounds about right. They strip really easy. Loctite and very low hand torque for those who may do this. Good luck with your new ride.
