Just noticed this. There is no seal around the taillight, so water and mud from the rear tire wheel well comes through a gap between the body and light.

Not a super-bad issue, but definitely a design flaw.

Unrelated: I’m at about 5,400 miles and just took it in for the first service this morning. Love this truck.

Huh, I wonder if that is a design flaw or a feature.

May be a feature, wouldn't want to get water/mud trapped behind the taillight and fender and causing it to rust from the inside out.

Doesn't seem right...I wonder if there is supposed to be a seal but it is missing?
