Default WORST ISSUE EVER with my 2011 Ecoboost FX4

Ok not really, but since a few other people have shared their "problems" I'll share mine.

So 2 weeks after getting my brand spanking new 2011 FX4 Super crew decked out with everything except the navigation system. I popped the hood to show off my tuned INJEN CAI. I close the hood and hear "clunk"

The F'n huge ford emblem on the grille just fell right off and BAM there I now have a 56k vehicle (Canadian pricing) looking retarded without the front badge....

Needless to say the dealer fixed it turns out the factory had cranked those clips onto the back so tight it was 1/3rd of the way into the plastic...

anyone else's emblem fall off their grille? It was a sad day for me when I pulled into work tat night when most of my buddies have the new Ram sport... and all had their shiney decals. was a sadder time for them the next morning merging on the highway to go home and they got a quick glimpse of my still in tact rear emblem.

Trucks a beast, glad to see how many others are out there.

I took my truck home, Front bumper was scratched, called the dealer and they say we have one truck coming in a few days that is exactly a like, so i Bring this one back.

Turns out it "Was Exactly" a like, this one also had a scratch so then i had to wait another 3 days for paint

LOL that's great....On a side not how do you like your INJEN CAI? I've heard the chrome model rubs the top of the hood? Have you had any issues with that? I'm tossing up the INjen and the AirAid

OK, how did you pay $56k for a FX4? Mine was 40200 incl freight/PDI and I have every option except nav.
