I do. Service After The Sale seems to be a rusty sign on American Pickers. I've been hearing the usual litany of excuses as to why things can't be fixed (backorder, shortages, warranty claim delays etc.) and I don't believe any of it. Funny how after you plunk down a year's salary for a vehicle...
Great fix. I had a similar problem with the lumbar support, which left me in agony every time I drove the truck for more that 20 minutes. My fix was to deglove the seat, pop the lumbar cable out of the little steel stamping and finally cut the nylon rod that turns the half dozen individual...
These trucks look awesome. Strider is still basically stock, but I didn't buy it to adventure. I actually bought it so that I'd have something that could make it up my driveway in the Winter. It does that beautifully.

Well, this is the carmaker that brought us the Pinto. Ford might be hoping that build quality will take enough trucks off the road that in 10 years those who are left won't cost them as much money.
