[QUOTE="smurfslayer, post: 2016691, member: 21926"] Oh man. This one gets all kinds of shade thrown my way. There seem to be a wide array of opinions here with 2 extremes. I’ll use [USER=31917]@MDJAK[/USER] for the “just give me the keys” end of the spectrum. Although he’s not that far on the edge of that extreme, I think it’s fair to say he is closer to that, but also doesn’t really mind people like me. I spent almost 4 hours at the stealership, we had an FRF thread that documented things to check on your 2017 which had a pages long list of things buyers had tripped over - panel alignment, loose hoses, leaks, orange peel paint, etc. I checked all the fluids I could, bought my own tire gauge, took about 30 pictures from every angle, crawled up under the truck with a decent light, got pictures there too, then took the test drive, then checked underneath and under the hood again, again with pictures just in case I missed something. Then we did paperwork. Then I got the interior walkthrough - about 20 minutes, I checked every internal function possible. stereo, fade, balance, bass, treble, windows, moon roof, door locks, sync menu options, seat settings. Everything went great. Until I left when I slammed the shifter back into manual mode and didn’t realize it :) We have had some pretty infamous stories here. One ’17 buyer made it like 30 miles until all the coolant was gone, thanks to a loose hose clamp. Another lost a boat load of transmission fluid and the list goes on. Jayzus! I hope you and the truck don’t get oil cancer ;-) [/QUOTE]
