Great truck, Sean82. My thoughts...as if you asked, right?
1) I don't tow anything or haul much, so I don't think the 2.3 vs. 2.7 is a big deal. I got the 2.7 and love it. But I bet the 2.3 would be just as good.
2) Love the fuel door keypad. I didn't get that option, so I'm not sure I...
OP and I are very similar....I had 3 Taco's (and loved them), but switched to the Ranger XLT with 2.7. It is a GREAT truck. But I paid much more for mine. Of course, it came new. But I would have loved to get his deal for my truck even if it had 2K miles on it.
Love mine. XLT with 2.7 Ecoboost. I had it just over a years...22K miles. It runs great. No regrets at all. The mileage could be better...17 city/19 hwy, I think? But I have a heavy foot. And I put BFG's...which are a little heavier. Like I said, no regrets at all. Love it.
I've got the XLT 2.7. I drive too fast. And I put BFG KO3's on...factory size, not larger...I think 33's? Mine gets about 19 on mostly highway...which is about 1 or 2 mpg's better than when it was new, I think? I've put 22K miles on it in one year. I love it.
I have a 2025 Ranger XLT with the FX4 package. The 2.7L engine is fantastic. It's fast and the MPG's are pretty good...19 city, 21 highway. I put BFG KO3's on it which are heavier than the stock tires(?). I think I lost 1 mpg with them...but not entirely sure. 2.3 is probably plenty for my...
I had Nitto Terra Grapplers on a prior vehicle...2015 to 2020the recommendation of Discount Tire...2015-2020. Not sure if they were G3's? But they were great...some of the best tires I have ever had. They were also a few bucks per tire cheaper, and a few pounds lighter. I still went back to...
Not sure this helps because it was a different vehicle. But I had this exact exhaust on my 2019 Jeep. It was great...hardly any rust after 7 years (120K miles). Tips still looked great. It was a better exhaust note, but no highway drone. I highly recommend MBRP axel back dual exhausts.
I really like it. I have made a few trips and I noticed far fewer buts. I'm not sure it was due to this deflector because I used it over the winter months when there aren't too many bugs anyway. But I like the way it looks, it was super easy to install, and fits perfectly. So overall...I...
***UPDATED REVIEW***
10K miles and I'm still happy with it. The 3M tape holds it in place. And I take it through the car wash almost weekly. I drive from FW to Santa Fe, NM round trip once a month...almost 1000 miles per month. I have noticed a lot less bugs than before I had the Husky...
I go through a car wash almost once a week. I have the stubby antennae, Aeroskin Husky hood deflector, and fold my mirrors in. No issues at all. My Ranger XLT is dark grey...no swirls. But it is less than a year old and I put graphene (do it yourself, not professional) on it about 3 or 4...
I thought maybe there would be noise/drone on the highway. But nothing. I drove 300 miles on them without any noise...or the same amount of noise that the stock Wranglers had.
Another great experience with Discount Tire in FWTX. Great price. Easy install. BFG KO3’s ride great. No noise, rubbing, or drone. OEM size b/c I didn’t want to add spacers or lift. I don’t do crazy off-roading/rock crawling. But I do drive off pavement some. These will handle rough...
