10/24/2019, seam sealer on all doors. XLT Supercrew.
Looking at the engine today and noticed it was built only 1 week before my Ranger was completed!
Also notice it's a Cleveland engine, last time I remember having one of those was on my Torino with the 351 Cleveland, hope this one is just as good!

I'll have had my Ranger for a week tomorrow and today I noticed (while showing the truck off to a friend in the pkg lot of an Outback) the missing tie-downs. Not a huge issue for me, but gaping, unfilled threaded holes bother the engineer-OCD-beejeezus out of me. Looks like they are M8x25mm, so I'll just pick four up at ACE and call it a wash.

Truck was built 7/31/2019 and has the seam sealant. That was a big 'WHEW!' as I am moving it from Texas to coastal NC and plan to do a lot of beach driving.

Thanks to the OP and others for pointing this out and offering solutions!

I know I'm way late to posting on this thread but i just bought this '19 last week.
So i checked both doors and they have the seam sealer (and it's beautiful looking too) LOL,
build day 8/03/19 and FWIW matches the blend date on the top of the WS.
