Yup, vehicles should be perfect. No blemishes, defects or flaws. Especially since they only make what, a handful of F150s and Raptors every year!
Warranties are for other people whose vehicles aren't perfect.
The purpose of this thread is to enlighten and make aware to new owners the importance of inspecting their new vehicle thoroughly.
This is not intended to bash Ford Motor Company.
Magic is right and most of us are mature enough to know that there is always a propensity for vehicle damage. It's just the nature of the beast.
Step 1.) Go to your dealership where your new Raptor is located and be cordial with the salesman and staff.
Step 2.) Ask to perform a vehicle inspection and test drive. You must be adamant on this.
Step 3.) If you find anything wrong with your Raptor make sure it is documented and taken care of with a "Due Bill" or similar. This is not a warranty repair at this point. It falls in the lap of the dealership to make it right.
Step 4.) Start paperwork. (Credit Applicaton/Show insurance/Financing/etc.)
