I have them also , and they are very "depressing" (hahaha, see what I did there? Cause it's depressed in ? And makes me depressed to stare at it ? ). Ranger SuperCabs are cursed with coolness and beautiful lines, so every little imperfection is to 10th power, and inexcusable, imo ... Throw a couple more doors on it and no one will care , we' ll all be in crewcabs one day anyway ... (Still at the casino, feeling a little mean right now , sorry CrewCab guys )

May want to move this post to the "Friday Drunks Thread" , since I still am ...

I would think that trying to "fix" them would lead to a more unsightly area...try to pop them out might look much worse. Doesn't look like anything that can be "PRD'd"
Yea looking at the location you're probably right. I'm not too worried about it. Just nice that the dealer acknowledged it and was willing to fix it.

After 2 yrs of ownership, I never noticed. I'll go check when the wife gets home. Maybe I'll come back & let you know.
I'm not an ass, I just forget way too often.

Crap, never saw this and will need to go take a look.

If I do have them, I've never noticed.

PLUS ... I use @AzScorpion's Graphene which makes it all so shiny that it blinds me and I can't see much!

And I have bigger issues to occupy my mind - such as the mod to the damper and why my velcro keeps peeling apart ... =D

*goes back to work on the next generation damper*

You all are too much. Shit now I have to go check out my SCAB too. Maybe I should go get drunk with notbudule and won't remember that there are some dents in my dentless Ranger SCAB????? OMG.

Well, I couldn't take it anymore so I went out into the cold drizzle and can't really see this dent thing?!? Am I looking in the right place?

Maybe Race Red is the best after all! Go, Soupie, Go! =p

There is another location with a similar "indent"....on the hood up near the windshield. I don't have a close up, but I've marked where it is on the attached photo. It's on both sides. Bugs me a little because I see it when I'm driving. I know it's not damage, it's just the stamping process.

Keep your eyes on the road....don't look at it. If you do, you can't unsee it and you'll need to put duct tape on it. :sunglasses:
