wanted to see what areas of a new ranger to go over that people have had issues with one they took delivery.
IE hood not being aligned, not enough turn signal fluid.
How much turn signal fluid is there supposed to be?

Panel alignment, door alignment, gate alignment. Fire it up and make sure everything works. Pair you phone with sync. Flux capacitor.

I did none of that, but I got a good truck, but after reading this forum that's what I would do given a 2nd chance.

tire PSI is almost always universally too high causing a bumpy ride.

Aside from that, are all the options you actually paid for present? Floor mats installed? sometimes dealers take them out for some reason and forget to put them back in.

Ask to see their "PDI checklist" then go through each item yourself to make sure it was done. (likely not, just checked off because dealers are lazy. That's why your tires have 40 PSI in them.)

Biggest thing is check the tire pressure. That seems to be the one most find out of wack and sometimes as high as 50 psi. Another is check body panels and paint for scratches and/or defects. Also make sure you check the roof too as @Tracy Bowman had a dent in hers and didn't notice it right away.

My tire pressure was around 45 psi on all tires and they left windshield wiper fluid nearly empty. That is all I noticed.
