 Don't worry - it's not like the Mexicans are racing your truck around the desert... or are they? :poke:

 I am assuming this is one of 5 Million reasons they are shutting down Mexican operations. Delivering product will be a lot faster and cheaper when you do not have to deal with cross border logistics from Mexico.
This is also why some believe the new trucks from Mexico have issues. The workers know they are shutting down the plant.
I don’t think they are “shutting it down” its supposed to be repurposed. But you never know about people sometimes...

They ship zip tied to the drum and most dealers don’t put the winch hook on. I think they don’t know where the hook is hiding or don’t know there’s a winch and wonder what the big hook is for.
