See - you 7/11 guys can't just go on your merry way after everyone gets your truck. This is the kind of stuff that will start to happen.

Hopefully it's just that the dealer's charger is broken.

That's going to be my first test today. I told them I want to take the truck home and garage it, lock my financing etc vs it sitting in the lot. I'm not optimistic but you never know.

There are many folks at the dealers that aren't familiar, I would truly hope they are looking over each others shoulders, but could it even be the charging level has been set below where the truck is charged to, so it just didn't need to charge.

Anything is possible, including bad parts from the factory, but maybe it is something simple.

I know it’s not the same as not being able to charge, but my tailgate still doesn’t work.

There was spray-in bed liner in the latches, so they replaced those. Apparently it was still acting up, and they found corrosion in a harness, so they’re ordering that now.

So it’s drivable, it’s just not a “real” truck.

I like your thinking. The update here is that I was unable to take the truck today. The tech had a bunch of things removed but I was able to sign and take "delivery ' so it's mine just under maintenance. Should know more about parts next week and if it's going to be a while they said I can take it with the 80% charge on it. Of note looking it over in person was a massive message on the rear window noting"truck will not charge ". If I'm able to wrangle it home this week I'm going to check the max charge settings and anything obvious. Appreciate all the 7/11 moral support.
