Not necessarily. My local dealer did the airbag recall & managed to damage the wiring that runs up the pillar. It caused the key fobs to quit. Annoying but driveable. Decided to take a short road trip 200 miles away. While there, the true problem presented itself. The computer wouldn't even let...
Try to get better pictures of the torx & then complain to Ford corporate. This is the entire point of hammers with exchangeable faces. It didn't even need to be a deadblow hammer. There's no excuse for a dealer mechanic not having the correct tools.
I went this route when the local...
I'd consider Eruption Green or Ruby Red if I couldn't get Velocity Blue. I'd have to see them in real life to decide. That was why I didn't consider Race or Hot Pepper Red when I ordered the 2022 Lariat. Cyber Orange in the right light was good but too yellow in other light.

The same tent direct from Napier was cheaper when I bought mine. I haven't set it up yet so I can't comment on will it work with roll up toneau cover. Reading the specifications, it should work by the tape measure.

That's one of the plusses of the MTM boxes over the ones from Plano. They have seals in the lid. I don't remember what material they are. The MTM boxes also use a hinge instead of latches on one side.
They are lockable but making it difficult to steal without a cover would take some work.
