Nice - any issues getting the BuiltRight Molle panels installed with the GG rear seat delete floor?
Wow, you have had a lot more issues than I have on my '22! You do have more miles, but most of the issues you mentioned don't seem to be related to mileage. I'm wondering what day of the week yours was built on. 
Also, not sure if it was playback through the embedded video on this site, but there were some audio problems, particularly around 6:58.
Finally, not sure if you used "12 Days of Christmas" ironically at the end. Seems like you were going for something patriotic there.

Thanks for watching. Must have been a Friday afternoon at the factory when mine got builtWow, you have had a lot more issues than I have on my '22!

if the music gave you a chuckle then def intentional.
Mine was a Halloween baby so I think everyone on the line was in a good mood that day.Thanks for watching. Must have been a Friday afternoon at the factory when mine got built
I had the hood latch recall performed, which was causing the dash warning and sometimes the alarm to go off, and also the wiper software recall/update, which I hadn't noticed any errant behavior before the work was done.
I haven't had any water intrusion through the top, though I do plan on adding some rubber gaskets in hopes that I may be able to reduce interior noise at freeway speeds. I'm also planning on adding some sound deading to the doors. The pros usually state one needs only do about 1/3 the surface area. How much did you do on your doors?

The rubber gaskets absolutely work to reduce wind noise. There are some posts here I followed when figuring it out. Since I’m not a pro I think I added the sound deadner anywhere I could reach in the doorMine was a Halloween baby so I think everyone on the line was in a good mood that day.

I also did it in the back when I installed the seat delete. But didn’t do the rear quarters because i hadn’t taken them apart.

I’ve bashed and scraped it a few times being a boob on the trails so far no leaks, but I do remove it and stuff it in the back when needed now.Not bad.
Anyone taking bets on how long it will be before that water tank splits open

Is that for shower water? I can't imagine wanting to drink water that's in a black plastic box that's been cooking outside in the sun all day.

nice vid! Got any details on your 2dr top I'm not familiar with it. Your overview of all the problems was great as well - makes me feel better about mine but they bother me at the end of the day
Although my wait was about 3 years, the more I see vids or read posts on the fit and finish issues, the happier I’ve become that my wait was until 2023 model year. My 2 Dr hasn’t had nearly as many issues. There’s no rubbing anywhere, no leaks, etc.
With removable panels, I never expected the doors to have the highest of quality plastic. Strong, but soft touch plastics add weight and the doors are already around 50lbs which is at about the limit that most people can handle. A tad better would have been welcomed however and particularly with the price increases that many now suffer through.
Nice vid and always happy to see someone who didn’t overlook an air compressor. If you’re going to off-road, that should be your first mod or addition. The stuff guys spend money on sometimes is interesting.
And driving a brand new vehicle to it’s top speed limit in an unbroken in engine is just wild. You had that ticket coming. Just cause it’s got a horsey on the wheel don’t make it a Mustang GT bud!

My transit connect cargo van which is a ford product has better plastics, which is wild to me.Although my wait was about 3 years, the more I see vids or read posts on the fit and finish issues, the happier I’ve become that my wait was until 2023 model year.

Re break in, we started in Pennsylvania and got the ticket in Colorado which was about 1600 miles in. I thought that was enough to break her in tbh, took it for an oil change when we got back to LA. But you are right re speed it was a bit foolish on 35s, fortunately the officer was friendly.
