    Got into a little fender bender the other day. Truck looks fine other than some minor damage to the tailgate and bumper. Do you think I should take it in to get the frame looked at?

    Yes. Check where the trailer hitch attaches to the frame. Sometimes the hitch will be forced downward and it kinks the frame. Here is a photo from another TW thread.

    Probably not, but as mentioned, it may be out of view. Just wanted to mention the irony that there is a Body & Paint shop in the background. :-D
