Happy days

1st want to say for those who haven't received your trucks, I certainly understand your frustration.  But after 11 months and 1 day, I received my order.

Wanted to ask.  I have done some searching regarding a seal kit, for the tailgate, as I know that it is not designed to be "dust tight",  but wanted to know if anyone has used a seal kit, and was happy with the results.

 

Thanks

Is that a 5'8" bed?  I thought the 2500 trucks only came with either the 6'8" bed or the 8' bed.  Anyway, to answer your question, I used some tailgate sealing strips in a truck years ago.  I wasn't satisfied with their performance so when I traded it, I didn't bother getting any for the new truck.

How did it look when you received it?  Any outside damage from sitting so long?  See any water inside or rodent left overs?  Congrats!

It has the 6'8" bed.

When speaking to the dealer, before it actually came in,  I let them know that once it did arrive, I expected them to take it off the car hauler,  and call me, 20 minute drive,  so I could see what it looked like, and also they put it up on the hoist, where I spend about 30 minutes inspecting the underside.  The dealer was very understanding, and didn't hesitate to my request.

The truck was very clean, inside, outside, and underneath.
