I sure hope the one I ordered is put together better than this. Pic is off of dealer photo via Auto Trader in Midwest.

That looks absolutely terrible. Here's hoping the guy taking pictures is a new hire... That needs to be fixed ASAP.

Wow. Not acceptable! Especially for a truck asking such a high price tag!

For a truck that has a similar price tag to a Lexus SUV, it would be fair to expect a similar level of fit and finish quality...

fit and finish issues mentioned in the video.
Assuming you have the PowerBoost with Pro Power Onboard 2kW option, which is why that long black box with the fan noise is there. If getting the Pro Power Onboard 7.2kW option, my understanding is that the long black box is NOT there, and it's an open space. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks.

Geat video & thx for the post. You are spot on about the quality of form & fit on the doors & the American Flag area. I have taken note of it on my truck checklist that I have created when mine comes in. I will be inspecting mine for sure. Pls post if. you get resolution on the onboard power continuing running fan whn all generator power is off.

The first thing I noticed when I saw my truck at the dealership was the misaligned doors. The fit is pretty embarrassing and after looking at a few other single cabs in the dealers lot today, they are all pretty bad, however, mine has the worst of them.

Driver door just behind the handle:

My truck was built in Kansas and I have been over the truck with a fine tooth comb 3 different times and the paint is perfect and so is the inside. I can’t find anything that needs attention yet. Knock on wood
