Issues I found related to fit and finish were a few small things on the inside and bedliner overspray in a few small spots. Panels all look good alignment wise.

My eyes were drawn t a few tolerance issues but ALL the Rangers on the lot were exactly the same and although I'm pretty picky I bought on anyways. Now my wifes '20 Escape is a different issue, the hood was seriously out of alignment. this year they changed the hood release, you pull the lever inside the cabin twice and the hood opens w/o any added latch. To close you hold it about 18" up and just 'free' drop it. I'm guessing some porter, tech or sales-genius just kept pushing/slamming it and knocked it out of whack. Its been fine for us and have not had any problems..

My front passenger side front fender is pushed in right above the wheel and the hood doesn't align with the fender well at all. The hood actually hangs over the fender on both sides but noticeably worse on the passenger side. When I 1st joined 5G I remember reading other post about this misalignment so I know I'm not alone.
