I think for midsize trucks 1 or 2 MPG can be a big deal. I also see that the Chevy Colorado 2.7 liter is a powerful and gas thirsty beast. I think its possible the Ford 2.7 could be in this range.
Interesting, and if I Google this information, I get sent down a rabbit hole. Hopefully this is something which gets addressed and Ford knows about. Really sounds scary!
I hear you. The FX4 is a good deal as a package and I commonly see them on the road.
Not sure the 4A is as important for me. Generally I know when I will need 4WD before embarking on a trip. All of these things of course are creature comforts.
Since Ford will require me to have to have...
Agreed. My understanding is that the FX4 gets you
Better off-road shocks
bash plates
terrain management system
beefier tires
On a side note, the gray wheels look the same to me in the configurator.
Which is perfectly fine, especially if it comes at no extra cost unlike the FX4.
I just feel many people buy these packages who don't need them :)
I bought a Jeep Liberty with light bar and every 4 wheel drive feature imaginable a few years back.
Sadly I hardly used its capabilities...
I want to know what are the differences between the Sport and FX4 packages.
Ford has been using the Sport a lot in its marketing pictures.
I learned from my last Jeep I am likely not to do much off-roading at all, just pavement, NE snow, light gravel.
I know it might be a good value, but...
Just remember that that the Ranger has been using the same 2.3 liter for years now and folks generally seem to be ok with it. I would also like some extra MPGs if it is possible.
I'll be honest about the Tacoma design I really don't like.
1. Big Nose on a little truck (Grill, Bumper, Skirt)
2. Circular Gas Tank door (can't explain it but looks out of place)
3. Air vents galore (reminds me of another copy the new Japanese Acura design trends).
4. Big Ass Handle (in the...
I have both on my list, either a Ranger XLT Sport or Tacoma TRD Sport. I am mostly a pavement and gravel kinda guy and will never do rock crawling. I feel a lot of people go overboard on all the 4x4 packages and never use them. I do want something with decent towing ability maybe for a...
I always worry about those hot "tweener" colors. Sometimes their opinions change on you with time. There is no doubting the velocity blue, it really pops!
For me, the question becomes do I need heated seats? I remember a time when I didn't have them and they only came with leather seats.
The 10 inch screen sounds like plenty and is bigger than the one I currently have.
I also see a $500 discount for the XLT which completely goes away with the...
I really don't expect the same demand for the Ranger as the Maverick. There is also a lot of competition in the mid-size truck market (Chevy, Toyota, GMC, etc). I would be surprised if it takes 6 months on a Ranger order.
I'll be curious as to how good the stereo is on the XLT.
Otherwise, its the best value and you can add almost all upgrades if you want.
The worst is the requirement for the key startup. I am certain Toyota will not do this on their lower trims.
I would get the Lariat if it wasn't the...
