Default 2018 Dash fixed?

Anyone had a chance to look at the 2018's on the lots to see if they all have the same dash issue. Was thinking possibly they tried a new combination of materials to avoid the lifting.

You still probably have to buy a Lariat or above to get the better (thicker) dash pad that won't warp.

Have the '18s even been on the lot long enough to warp?

Every time I go to the dealership I check all trim levels. Lariats and platinums also warp, possibly not as bad as lower trim levels though. I also have seen trucks being delivered that haven't even sat on the lot have the warping. Not to mention all the super duty's Have the warping issue also.

I haven't had any warping on my 2015 XLT yet so I don't believe it happens to all of them. Maybe because I live in a colder climate?

I guess I wasn't aware of any warping issues either. Where do they warp?

How prominent can it be if there's no discussion of it on this forum?

Interesting. A lot of posters in that thread are saying they don't have the issue. Seems like less of an issue than the dual panel moon roof.
