Boy, oh, boy! I know what you mean. I kept telling myself whenever I built a truck, car, or bike, "Just look under it for puddles and drive (ride) it..."
But, whenever I stopped for more time than just a traffic light, I'd give it the complete "look under the chassis, look under the hood, look for air sucks, etc".
Seems like the more I looked for something, the more I'd find. But, mostly, stuff I WANTED TO CHANGE. Not stuff that was broken. Or that I had screwed up during the build.
Those seem to become obvious right away...usually to the ear or nose.
If I had the confidence to do it this way myself, I'd say, "Watch the gauges, look under it for puddles, and check (often at first) under the hood for juice where it doesn't belong."
Really nice truck, lyrikz.
