factory random test drive

I have a sticker that came in the truck that said that this vehicle was selected at random off the line for a test drive and the truck was delivered new with 11.6 miles. How many out there are test driven and how many are having problems with a factory test driven truck.

rolled 1000 miles this morning coming to work. no problems

My '04 FX4 also had the factory random test drive sticker. It had a little over 25 miles on it when I got it. It just turned 10,000 miles and I have not had any trouble with mine.

I already have the truck(and vibe). Now I just need the sticker. Sounds like it may be the fix!
