That is not factory…it looks like someone sprayed undercoating all over your exhaust.

That, 100%, is not factory. Your dealer or importer did it

My dealer said that Ford USA sent it like this because of the corrosion during the trip from the USA to South America. They were going to see if the anti-corrosion paint might affect anything on the spare tire. All the trucks they receibe they arrived with that anti-corrosion paint . i dont like have that tire with paint .could be possible that the paint affect the tyre safety now or in the future? I will try a detailing to remove all or maybe some parts that excess anticorrosion paint

Put the tire on and drive it around a few kilometers... might cause the paint to flake off

Make sure you don't have one of those roof wing things, they are known to cause issues. I had to dig up an old drawing I did. Follow the science.

Anyone install the Roof Spoiler?

Seems like it would cause a dust vortex and a possible low pressure zone which could make the truck go backward at high speeds. :p But did you factor in the coriolis effect?
