I ordered in April picked up in late August from Granger Motors.
I ordered the cheapest Ranger you can get and very happy. $34,928 OTD
I had a 5g Ranger and have a 5g Ranger work truck. I thought they would be pretty similar which they are but more refined. The ride is much smoother. It sits up higher too.
Things I noticed,
Did you know the fog lights turn on when turning? Turn right and the right light comes on, turn left and the left comes on.
Auto high beam. They don’t fade like the bronco though, they are off then on
Active grill shutters.
Lane keep assist (I have a Toyota and the ford system gives you more room to bounce back and forth)
I saw in videos no mechanical fan so happy to see electric fans, there’s 2.
LED plate lights.
Weather stripping around hood and air box.
Max payload 1815
6 tie downs
Exhaust is different looks slightly bigger at exist I’ll have to measure both.
Rear U joint is CV style like the bronco
Aluminum control arms again like bronco
Seems more responsive at tip in
No Sport mode at the shifter, have to press mode button 3 times. (Liked 5g better)
But in sport mode you can see what gear you are in by pressing + on shifter couldn’t do that on 5g in sport.
10R60 shifts great
Key is cut different on blade, more of a river going down the center
Comes with a trim ring on steering column!
Seats hold you in better, hard to put a finger on it but they feel great!
Overall the truck is great, best in the midsized market, the 10 speed was and still is what pushes this truck to #1.
