For me after driving a F-150 for decades I bought a new Ranger and love it. It has a towing capacity of 5000lbs, if you get the brake controller it jumps to 7500 lbs. literally have no regrets in getting the Ranger for around town or cross country trips. In fact, I will drive from the PNW up to...
I have tried it and really don't use cruise control, even on my drive from Virginia to the PNW. I have found when I am literally driving my Ranger I get less tired and I always have a feel for it going on.
I live in the PNW where we have a bit of moisture and I have had excellent results with the Ford all weather mats that I got with points, zero complaints.
I installed mine on top of my spray in bed liner so items don't get scratched. I have always had a spray in bed liner as my first choice, but the mat is a great supplement.
It would have door edges that have the same shape as my F-150 that slope down, and it would also have adjustable gas and brake pedals like in my F-150.
I live in Washington just south of the Canadian border and I put your flag on all my vehicles. Doesn't matter what President TACO says, we need each other.
Like you, I always shop on line and try and get my dealers to come close to a price match. I live in the PNW. and bought my Ranger outside of Boston. Great looking truck!
I really prefer the clear bra that I have installed on all of my vehicles. Just gave my daughter my 2016 F-150 that had zero marks or missing paint on the hood.
Fr me I like doing everything together, so I have the oil changed and have my tires rotated and balanced every 5,000 miles. I use only Mobile ! fully synthetic for years.
