Yes sir, actually it came into the dealer today, and I pick up tomorrow. I'll post pictures. I started a different thread, but I'll ask here too, when you picked yours up, did you still test drive it? I mean it has a warranty. Curious?

No I didn't, I had been sick and just got out of the Hospital. I had to have help to get into my 2015 that I traded in. My wife wouldn't let me drive. When we got to the dealership, Maria, sales person I use, Asked who was going to drive it home, I said I will. Wife said no. So I told Maria to have bed liner sprayed in, tint the front windows and get me a bed cover installed. That should take a week and "I WILL DRIVE IT HOME". That was Thursday, On Sunday I got in my 2015 by myself. I told the wife see I can get in, I will drive the new truck home. The following Thursday it was ready. I took in the 2015 and drove home in the 2018!

I can't do HF. I don't trust the cheap Chinese junk they mostly sell. Always wanted a lift table for the bikes but never wanted to spend the $$$ on a Hardy Lift and no way was I going to put either Harley on a HF lift.

I get it. But I've been buying things from HF for years and other than their bottom of the line power tools, everything IMO is the same quality you get from like say Menards. So a floor jack and some stands I would trust. Just take care of them

Awesome! Do you need any blocks to lift? Or does the Jack get the tires off the ground by itself?

For sure. And let's be honest. Whether you buy a tool from Lowe's, Menards, Harbor Freight, Sears, etc, they're more than likely made by the same manufacturer. 🤷♂️

You can also get a floor jack from Home Depot. They have dozens of them for between $100 up to and over $2000, depending on specifications. I would bet that most of the ones for < $200 are made in China.
