yes to reset so that the transportation from plant based usage is not messing the GOM.

That said, I still haven't completely finished the list and some of it clearly takes more time that you can do at the dealership at pickup.
Having worked with several auto companies and having been to several assembly plants. The hardest miles on any car are on the train and the truck. That metal tear is proof.

Your dealer can provide the full VIN. Does the "chassis number" match this VIN length off this FCTP vehicle?

@ChasingCoral I dropped this in a Google Sheet. Users can print or make a copy if they need it and we can add to it as we go. Let me know and I can give you edit access.
