Picking up Truck Tomorrow



Been waiting 3 months. Picking up my new truck tomorrow

F-350 King Ranch DRW - Blue Jeans

What things should I pay close attention to, I have been hearing issues with paint. And I remember something about the leather a while back. But been trying to stay away for a few weeks.

So school me on what exactly I should be looking at.

Thanks for your time!

I know there have been some guys with issues, but I got mine a week and a half ago, and it has been just about perfect. The only issue I had was one of the 6 tires had 5 lbs more air than the others.
Congratulations.

You could check everything on it before you sign, but look it over close, check the front hubs to be in auto before you drive it, and let time sort it out. We all will spend lots of time playing with everything on there. If there's a problem you will find it then. Warranty; one of the best reasons to buy a new truck.

Beautiful truck and great mountains in the background... As for things to look for there are a few threads about this and some guys go over it with a fine tooth comb and have a task list for the dealer to do before they take delivery (or sometimes come back for), and other people just give it a quick once over and head on their merry way. I will probably do a mix, go over the windows, locks moonroof, and a few of the "gizmo's", but unless paint issues jump out at me (like a huge scratch from shipping or something) I'm probably not going to be too picky over that area. We plan to have more than 6K miles within the first 2 months of owning so can't assume the paint will be perfect forever.
