Ran into this video of a new Ranger missing a skid plate. I know he took deliver pretty early so this is obviously a very early build.
Well If he bought an XLT it doesn't come with a engine cover. And he does appear to have the FX4 front skid plate.

Edit: I'm also skeptical of someone who uses multiple posts to make a big deal about a non-issue:

Yeah, I thought the same thing about the engine cover; didn't track his reddit post down to get more info.

Color me skeptical too. Why would it have the bolts put in it with no plate? Possibly removed in transport or while at dealer.......

shit happens, you go to the dealer and get it corrected...drama queen.
I think he'd rather get the clicks on youtube.

These clickbait Youtubers are all the same, just looking for that ad revenue.

I honestly don't blame him for questioning the ignition. I saw my first XLT today and I agree it doesn't look finished and seems to have a lot of play.

At least he HAS a Ranger. I hope I don't have any complaints about mine when I get it but it sure would be great to have one to complain about!
