[QUOTE="FordTechOne, post: 1571419, member: 35543"] I have zero fit/finish/quality issues on my 2019. I’m not sure what your expectations are, but a mass produced pickup is not a hand build Rolls Royce. Some orange peel is common on all mass produced vehicles. Sorry, there isn’t someone at the end of the assembly line wet sanding and buffing each truck as they roll off the line every 52 seconds. How did you determine the paint is thin/not full coverage in some areas? Did you use a paint thickness gauge? I have never seen any factory painted vehicle where you can “see metal” though the paint; if the paint is thin you’ll see primer, not metal. The ticking at idle is the high pressure fuel pump, it’s completely normal; I don’t know why you’re complaining. As far as a rattle shifting between 1st and 2nd gear, it could be a vacuum hub lock issue which is easily repaired. Try the same thing in 4WD Auto, if the noise goes away, have the dealer repair the vacuum hub lock system. [/QUOTE]
