I spoke to another dealer's service department this evening since I was driving past. They told a slightly different story than I've heard so far. They only sell TT where the floor sits above the wheel well. In their opinion, they don't understand how the mfg could design where the fender flare is the water seal since the plastic flare will degrade, crack, or disappear when driving past a tractor trailer. They don't have experience with the lower slung models, so they couldn't offer a solution that they have used. But, they did suggest trying underbelly repair tape.
After a bit of review, it looks like it's basically like duct tape but is designed to adhere to the underbelly plasticized fabric and create a waterproof seal that can stand up to road salts etc. It's apparently super sticky so should hold for a long time.
Anyone have any thoughts? I've never seen the stuff (they were closing when I got there and the parts dept was already dark).
