There's an empty space just to the direct left of my spare tire in the cargo tray. Its a long vertical straight slot. What, if anything, is supposed to be in that slot? All my other spaces are filled, including the 2 spaces for the tow hooks.

I thought the same thing, figured it was just extra space. I put my Maglite flashlight in there. It fits perfectly, the flashlight doesn't roll around or make any noise.
The 2016 don't come with the tow (really tie-down) screw eyes, but we get the empty slots. ;-) It bothered me enough that I bought a pair and stuck them in there. (Rear: $15, Front: $20)
Nothing is supposed to be in that long vertical straight slot. It may be just for spacing or for saving some styrofoam material. I wrap the wheel lock key with sponge and leave it in that slot.There's an empty space just to the direct left of my spare tire in the cargo tray. Its a long vertical straight slot.

You're lucky to have these two tow hooks in your 16's. I had to pay for these and they aren't cheap!
Good place to stuff a Rambo knife.
I was going to get a big Maglite for the slot, but then I thought the batteries would eventually corrode when I forget about them. A shake-up flashlight might be a better option. They have some on eBay that are about the length of a long Maglite and only about $15.
I have my tow ball mount bar in the slot as it fits perfectly and I suspect that is what it is for.
