So, did any of you get the hood prop accessory with your Raptor? Was looking over the engine just now and saw this aluminum brace across the frame right behind the radiator and fans. Reached down to touch it and it moved. Started messing with it and finally got it out. I'm wondering what the assembly line thought when they couldn't find their hood prop next shift?

I work paint shop at a different factory, that looks like a hood prop used to prep pre paint!!! It would use holes that most likely have things in them now.

Correct, funny thing about automotive, you get anywhere from 120 to 48 seconds to look at a car. The American worker today does not give a shit because they are pushed to a number. Quality is 3rd. Looks like this .. safety number, quality.... so the people that actually saw this said, " not my problem".
