I can confirm that the body is steel, but as was said previously, the hood, front fenders, and tail gate are aluminum.
I have a 2024 XLT, only the hood is aluminum.

I felt silly at lunchtime going into my garage with a magnet off the refrigerator, haha. I also only have an aluminum hood.

2025 RR - Built 3-18-25, all steel except the hood. Was surprised about the hood cause it feels heavy enough to be steel like previous trucks I have had.

For those of you that are interested I checked my 2024 Ranger Raptor yesterday and all panels are steel except the hood. I am glad that I had rust protection and undercoating done along with paint and interior protection hopefully will keep it protected for many years to come. If you live in a road salt winter state how long before panels start to rust something to think about.
Just checked my 2025 Ranger Raptor. Everything is steel except the hood.
