Just came in was all excited until I seen the work the Factory did on the passenger side bed seam. The other Raptor Ranger on the Lot was perfect on both sides on the bed seams. Its like they got crazy with the caulk gun. The only way to fix it is to remove the bed it really bummed me out order in April came on October 31. It was a long wait. The last photo is the way it should look and that's the driver side. Do not know If I could live with it and really do not want to remove the bed on a new truck especially with the sprayed in factory liner. I may just order a 2027 Raptor but hate that I lose the Leather seats and the same 2027 Model Raptor is 1,000 more.

I can feel your frustration, but I don't think it would stop me from taking it home. Most people probably won't notice it.

Nice looking ride! Enjoy and hav fun!

One thing to consider if you refuse delivery.
If this was XLT or Lariat, you could probably find another on someone's lot. But being a Raptor, those are rare and usually allocated to a buyer.
Are you willing to wait another 6 months or more for the 2027?

You may be the only one to ever notice and it is not like a place that gets detailed
I had to go look at mine due to how not in you face that area is.
That would most likely not stop me from buying it.
I would not want the bed removed with spayed liner on a new truck.
That will never affect the value.
Next person will buy it and never see it as a problem
