My advice is to just drive the **** out of it and have fun. Warranty covers all else

You're going to drive yourself nuts
Def. understand the comment as obviously needing to look over the truck is already driving me crazy.
However if I can check a few things and avoid having to waste time at a dealer for warranty work ill do it.

that comment is in regards to loose tranny lines and anything that would warrant a tow or dealer intervention.

checking paint, removing plastic, and going over the truck otherwise is just standard procedure!
drive the heck out of it otherwise and enjoy. Awesome machines!

My heat shield/insulator over the trombone had fallen down and was resting on the exhaust. I saw something similar in another forum on the 21 F150s and sure enough mine was hanging down. I pressed it back up there but it’ll probably fall back down. 553FEDED-7B98-4126-BFD4-0364BCE2BEFA.jpeg

Did something come loose that’s holding it place?

I don’t think so. It’s got adhesive on the other side and maybe it either wasn’t pressed on very well or it needs something more to hold it tight. I’ll keep an eye on it now.
