CaliTex350 Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Seems like the small things get overlooked. Door keypad code, console vault keys ( if equipped). Owners manual. Etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evanl Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 If you have the bedliner, check to make sure there isn’t overspray all over the truck. Mine had several spots all over it. Check for cosmetic issues on paint, alignment, fit up, etc. Make sure all plastic and labels have been pulled off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winkzoot Posted April 19, 2022 Author Share Posted April 19, 2022 Thanks for the suggestions. The check list is very helpful. Do the trucks come with the reducer for the receiver hitch or is that something we need to buy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of mine got a 350 DRW last Dec and it was there with the truck. So all I can say is what I saw. He did order it with the ultimate tow package maybe that had something to do with it.

I have the gas powered F-250 so I got a 2.5 inch receiver, The F-350 and the diesels get the 3-inch receiver so I am guessing the reducer only comes with the 3-inch version. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a thread a month or so ago debating reducer or no reducer. I grabbed this info from that thread: Edited April 19, 2022 by PineNut 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NH_Bulldog Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Ford says that trucks with the 3" receiver get a 3" to 2 1/2" reducer. Trucks with the 2 1/2" receiver (like my F250) do not get a 2 1/2" to 2" reducer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
