Here's one for The Collective...
Back in '02 when I was anxiously waiting delivery of my F-350 7.3L PSD, I hung out on forddiesel.com. (Since renamed, as Ford had copyright concerns... but that's history.) There was a pretty comprehensive, community generated "Delivery Checklist" of all the little niggles and what not to check for when picking up the trucks. Things that were known to be problems from the factory, loose stuff mostly, "make sure x is tight, make sure y is loose, make sure z doesn't squeak, make sure <thing> <does/not> <whatever>" but there was about 50-60 items on there.
Now granted, Factory Warranty and all, but still it was kinda cool. Especially when I let sales-guy know I'd be bringing a flashlight, the list, and need "a few moments alone" with the truck before I took delivery of it - haha. He actually asked me to email it over to him so he could use it on other new trucks.
Anyway, it totally may not matter, and the Bronco situation is... um.... let's say "fluid".
Just wondering if there was such a thing floating around, would it be worth putting one together, or just "screw it, just gimme my Bronco" ?
