I took a quick roadtrip out to Moab a couple weeks ago, wanted to post some pics and videos.
If you're interested in gas mileage, I've got a 2024 Ranger Raptor, the bed has a Decked drawer and maybe 400lbs total weight. I filled up with 87 octane at Maverik at 36 & Federal in Denver and drove...
This morning I started up and got a "Advanced Lighting features temporarily unavailable" (or similar wording) in an error message on the dash. Got out and the driver's side headlight is out -- no headlight, no DRL, no turn signal, etc. About 30 or 45 mins later it's fine, no errors and...
The 18" version (I guess on Lariat only?) with FX4 is a Goodyear Wrangler M+S 111T in 255/65-18.
So far (about 600 miles) it seems like a good tire, but clearly road-focused vs a big knobby offroad tire.
Picked up my Lariet FX4 in Azure Gray yesterday -- really impressed with this truck!

I got the email from Ford on Jan 3 saying no date, but same day I got an email from my dealership saying the build was scheduled for Feb 9, so who knows? Hopefully delivery in March sometime.

I am pretty tempted to pick up a used Ranger to wait this out -- there's a nice Lariat Tremor with 45K miles on it that I took a look at yesterday... might be a good hold-over for 4-6 (?!?) months while waiting. Placed my order coincidently the day the strike started :/
Here's some Azure pics if you're curious. I was/am super close to picking up a 2023, but have convinced myself it's worth waiting for the 2024. It's a really nice color, dark/light shades depending on lighting and angle, but a nice calm blue.
