I've never been clear on this: Can a lvl 1-3 ranger or paladin use wands from the spell list they've yet to get?

I don't actually have a caster level yet, but would I still have the spell list and be able to use appropriate wands??

Yes.

Spell Trigger: Spell trigger activation is similar to spell completion, but it's even simpler. No gestures or spell finishing is needed, just a special knowledge of spellcasting that an appropriate character would know, and a single word that must be spoken. Spell trigger items can be used by anyone whose class can cast the corresponding spell. This is the case even for a character who can't actually cast spells, such as a 3rd-level paladin.
