Advice for Choosing Ranger Lariat Options… Lot Selection vs. Custom Order

[MJE]

Hey y’all,

TL;DR: Looking for any & all advice. I might’ve got most of the way there on decisions using the search after following the forum, but always happy to have more chime in.

Well I’ve finally done it. Booked an appt with Ford sales dude to look at Rangers (and F150s) coming up in February. I’m hoping the Ranger will be a worthy successor to my old F150 I wish I’d kept, but perhaps being a half size smaller it might just fit in the city a little easier. I’ve often just ordered Fords in the past, something they’ll happily do, but I like the idea of choosing one on the lot mostly because my current car turned from excitement to disappointment upon delivery. I like the idea of actually testing out what I will be buying, but of course dont’ want to buy something that everybody else has tested first. With that said, there’s very few options to pick on the Ranger, most of which (including the needed door keypad) are dealer installed or outright aftermarket truck accessories. So this does leave me with a few questions about the few factory options available & what trade offs might make sense. If I’m ordering I’m just checking all the boxes, but if I choose off the lot there’s always a few trade offs to be made.

1. 2024 vs 2025
- I can see choosing a 2025 to allow the factory a year for practice building & giving them a time to rectify any ’hidden’ issues they might come across. I’d read that early builds in particular had poor seats, something that would be a deal breaker for me, but might not be apparent upon a first drive. This might actually be the whole issue with my current vehicle.
- I like the new black package and the new marsh gray & desert tan colors even if I don’t expect many of them to show up on the lot.
- On the other hand, Ford can be somewhat uh notorious for cheapening builds & decontenting as the years go on. In this case they’ve removed active park assist 2.0. But apparently that also removes the electronic short shifter? Does anybody actually use the park assist & find it helpful? Or do the sensors do enough to supplement mirrors when parking?

2. 2.3 vs. 2.7
- this is probably the biggest choice. I’ve had the 2.3 in an explorer & think it’s fine. Hwy mileage is apparently 24 with the 2.3 & 23 with the 2.7. That doesn’t seem like a huge difference, but I’m the guy that would watch the fuel economy graph & cheer an extra mpg. I’m also aware though that equals the numbers in theory for an F150 hybrid. Of course if I wanted real economy I wouldn’t shop a truck.
- I’ve read the 2.3 is DI only so could be subject to carbon buildup. Is that a real issue one could expect within a reasonable life span to cause issues? I’ve also read the 2.7 has a wet belt which apparently could be a maintenance issue & cam phasers which could be a failure point. I’m not enough of a mechanic to understand either. I’m not doing heavy duty hauling though so leaning 2.3, but who ever felt they had a car with too much motor after buying the optional engine. Never.

3. FX4 Package
- I can’t say I plan to rock crawl with this, merely exploring the usual logging/oil/fire roads. It appears to include the locking diff though, skid plates (which could help even on gravel if you happen to hit the ditch) & some more drive modes which can’t hurt. Not sure this is completely necessary, but I’d tick the box if I order.

4. Advanced Trailer Tow
- I can’t recall the last time I towed anything & don’t have plans to. But always buy the tow package. I can see the advanced one being useful enough if ordering just because, but not sure it’s a deal breaker unless you plan to tow.

5. Box steps:
- are these actually useful for older guys to step up into the box? Or do they just pack up with snow/slush/mud/etc. & be a pain to clean? I’m leaning towards these for sure, but not sure if they’re good enough to pass on a lot vehicle for (and I won‘t bother with mods, etc to add after the fact) or if they’re bad enough to avoid ordering.

My goal is to purchase the vehicle that will take me into retirement & beyond, hoping for a decade or more out of it & say 200,000mi/300,000kms. My priorities are:
1. Comfort: looking for something large enough to drive a day to do field work, 2 days to visit family, or 3+ days to travel the continent. All activities that were easy in my 2007 F150 Lariat but that I’ve avoided doing in my current too small for the highway car. Yet I have to remember that wherever you travel, there’s a city at the other end, not to mention my daily life here in the city, that demands a vehicle small enough to park.
2. Technology: I like Fords for the technology they give. Screens are customizable, apps don’t require a subscription (does nav require one now?). My requirements of adaptive cruise & a 360 camera should be met easily enough.
3. Feel: looking to get back into a truck for the feel of it, less so than the need to haul stuff. While I’ll be primarily hauling a box of air at my age, I’m in a truck centric locale & certainly would feel better in one.

I don‘t need to rush into a decision, I could have a couple years to really think on it, but want to be ready with some ideas In case one of the lot options looks great.
1. Azure, 2.3. Locking diff (no FX4), trailer tow (not advanced).

2. White, 2.3. FX4 & advanced tow.

Hey, I see you're from Calgary!

Here are some of my thoughts, I got my Ranger (Lariat, 2.7L, FX4) less than a month ago in the area. After doing the usual research for a few months, I had a pretty good idea of the options I want but was limited to only two cars in the province matching that. It worked out well with pricing with one of those (close to 3k below MSRP) but unless you are willing to make some compromises, you rarely find exactly what you want in stock. I just had to add the keyless entry separately at the dealer and my wish list was complete but was lucky to find what I wanted.
I added PPF, Line-x bed spray-in and a Bison Tonneau cover separately and not through the dealer - everything is pretty accessible but there is a bit of a time hassle to get them done.
Stay away from inner city Ford Dealers, travel south (High River) or even to Edmonton (Leduc), they have better prices and better buying experience overall. I spent a day test driving different options at one of the dealers before making a decision.
The 360 is a great feature along with the Adaptive Cruise, I never used the parking assist except out of curiosity.
I noticed that dealers don't order cars with the box steps, that should be a must, makes loading things in the bed much easier.

Hope this helps, let me know if you have specific questions for our area

Hello, fellow Albertan here!

I traded a 2021 Ranger Lariat Tremor in November. New truck was an in-stock Lariat, 2.7L, FX4, Advanced Tow, Box Steps. Hot Pepper Red. Odd to see a dealer order with the paint option - $850 up charge. Dealer installed spray-in liner before I picked it up.

I get A-plan,

A couple things:
- The 2.7 is worth it. Noticeable improvement. Quick, responsive, smoother.
- FX4 pkg is nice - mostly for the locking rear diff. The skid plates are not for rock crawling but they are perfect protection for gravel and brush.
- Box side steps are pretty nice. The bed height is tall. Reaching over them is not fun, especially if you are trying to retrieve something that isn’t up against the bedside. The cost to add these with OE parts seems to roughly $800USD per side. Somebody stumbled upon a deal online, not OE, and still more than the factory option. These have not accumulated any mud or snow in the couple months I’ve had the truck.
- Advanced tow would help with resale. But it sounds like you are keeping this for a decade AND don’t need it, so okay to skip.

Overall - the creature comforts are nice across all trims. The Lariat with the included tech is soooooo nice. In Canada, the Raptor is +$20K more than a Lariat - ouch. With that, I believe the Lariat is the sweet spot in the line up.

Good luck on the hunt!

Hey Alex! Yes, I grew up here & have been back for a number of years now. I must be in a different part of the city though as I haven’t seen a Velocity blue one yet around, just an Azure over by a friend’s place. I’ve heard that with other makes (Toyota) as well, go to High River, or elsewhere, but get out of Calgary. I have a good enough relationship with the closest local not inner city dealer so might be able to do alright. But High River isn’t far.

Thanks for weighing in. You do actually lead me to a few different questions. I could PM you the city specific ones but I’ll throw them out here in case somebody else has similar.

1. What made your decision for the 2.7 over the 2.3? You were thoughtful with what you wanted so I’m assuming you didn’t just accept it because the other options were there. It seems engine choice is a big one affecting driving & ownership experience.
2. Where did you get linex done & would you recommend them? I’m not at all hung up on factory spray in when that’s easily done elsewhere & linex that I’ve seen has a nice texture to it. Same question for PPF. I’ve always gotten that done at the dealer, but know that I’m paying more.
3. https://bisontonneaucovers.com/collections/ford/model_ranger. Which bison one did you go with? I’ve had the 4 panel back flip one on my old F150 but there are so many more choices now. As above too, where’d you go & would you recommend?

Thanks again Alex appreciate the help!

Thanks Dan! Appreciate your help & advice. Your thinking largely matches mine. If I’m ordering I’m ticking all the boxes, if not give up advanced tow first & others after. I’m not really budget limited so the up front cost of the 2.7 isn’t a deal breaker. A-plan would be great, I used to get X-plan through work, which made purchasing easy, but no longer.

I have to agree on your price assessment too. The Raptor isn’t a bargain here. Nice truck! But with that kind of budget I have some other ideas I’d do first (F150 or Toyota . The ‘normal’ trims of the Ranger are actually pretty reasonably priced. This is my ‘low end’ option & I like the idea of a lower cost as long as I’m happy with the purchase long term (something that hasn’t been true of my current Ford).

Thanks Dan! Appreciate the help. Your thinking matches mine pretty well. Choose engine first & forego other stuff in the same order you list. I’m not budget limited so the up front cost of the 2.7 isn’t an issue. I used to get x plan through work but no longer. A plan would be great!

I have the same thoughts as well on pricing. The ‘normal’ trims are pretty reasonably priced for us here. But the raptor is expensive relative if I decided to spend that much I could do F150 or Toyota Land Cruiser.

Aside from the parking assist and gear shifter, another change for 2025 is that it is flat-towable. That may or may not matter to you today, but as I too will likely have my new truck into retirement I might want to tow behind an RV someday. Or maybe it'll help with resale, but I'd imagine there aren't a ton of folks looking for used trucks that are specifically flat-towable. I know the 5th gen rangers are flat-towable, so it might be that 2024 rangers are the only ones NOT flat towable.

I too opted for the v6. Both engines will get any job that I plan to do done. I found the 2.7 to be a bit quieter and a bit smoother than the 2.3 which is something I'd notice regularly, but maybe you wouldn't care as much. I also will tow on hills a fair amount, and again, either engine will do nicely but the more powerful engine will not have to work as hard as the 2.3 so I'd prefer not to have my foot to the floor on steep hills or listen to an engine maxed out for extended periods.

It remains to be seen how useful the side steps will be, but I can't imagine I won't appreciate them. They're farther forward than bumper steps so right away it's a more useful design, but worst case I don't use them a ton. They weren't that expensive and I'd rather not live with the regret of not spending a bit over $200 for them.

As for the FX4, I got it for the skid plates, locking diff, and off-road modes (specifically downhill descent control). I drive in snowy conditions a lot and the downhill descent alone is something that I've used and appreciated since I first had it in a BMW about 20 years ago. There are steep side streets around here that don't get plowed and it's nice not to slide into the pile of cars at the bottom. Also by the end of winter the side streets that don't get plowed are deeply rutted with ice so I've appreciated skid plates even while staying on road.

Advanced tow pkg is a no-brainer for me and I'm giddy that the brake controller is a factory option. My kids might use the trailer backup assist more than me but that's why it's there - for the less experienced or in more stressful situations. The side mirrors are nice but not huge and a lot of trailers within the weight limit of our rangers are big enough to not afford a good view back using the stock side mirrors.

I heard it as a braking issue. If only I knew the 25s would be flat towable before buying 24 hahaha

 

[Sparky62]

@MJE - Sounds like you're in the same boat I was a little while ago. I really wanted to buy something "now" to avoid potential tariffs, end of the year deals & not having to wait. In the end, I couldn't find exactly what I wanted on dealer lots anywhere near me, so I decided to place an order (something I've never done before).

I might not get as great of a deal, (using my X-Plan) but then again, I'm not having to do without options I wanted but couldn't find or settle for options I didn't want.

Dealer won't be applying door guards, catalytic converter etching, specially formulated snake oil paint and seat treatments etc...

Meanwhile I'm having a blast on this forum, learning about what will and won't work prior to taking delivery, already picked up some wheels and tires.

 

[Greglon]

You’ll definitely appreciate the steps. My 2.3L Lariat now has 9k miles and I’ve enjoyed every one of them. I added all the options you could get on a 2wd. You’re going to catch yourself smiling sometimes when you walk out of the office and see it in the parking lot.

1. I didn't notice a significant difference when test driving both aside from sometimes feeling the 2.3 "working harder" while the 2.7 is more natural. Have a look at the Car Care Nut mechanic review of the 2.3, it will give you an idea of the downsides. I think both engines are great overall.
2. Calgary Line-X North - I would not recommend, they're sloppy and there is no attention to detail (overspray everywhere and poor masking job). They'll say something and do the opposite (eg they said they'll remove the tie hooks but did not). The Line-X product is great but I would do it elsewhere or go with the factory spray-in. There are many options for PPF, I would just go with the best rated shops.
3. I got the Bison Flip Back Hard Tri-fold Tonneau Cover for 679$. They have a warehouse in Calgary and will install it for free. Not sure how it will hold up but seems good quality overall.

Thanks muchly for your advice stemplar. I’d forgotten about the flat tow issue & while not a requirement for me, yes it might well be for someone in the future if I don’t keep it until it’s ready for the junkyard.

I definitely didn’t think about engine noise or smoothness. If the v6 improves on those counts it’s probably worth the 1mpg penalty. & even if I don’t plan to tow your explanation just proves conventional wisdom to buy the largest engine available in a vehicle.

if I do order, I’ll tick all the options. I didn’t realize the descent control in FX4 would be handy for snow. Now I know I should look for FX4.

I may well end up ordering. Dealer is usually only too happy to order. The only reason I hesitate to is based on my previous order it wasn’t as hoped. I guess as long as I retain the right to refuse upon pre delivery inspection it’s all good. Then again the first car I ordered just so was my absolute favorite.

Enjoy the forums while waiting for yours! I’m enjoying studying my options on here too.

I bet I would appreciate the steps. I’m beyond the age of standing on tires or worse lunging up into the tailgate to get into the box. The old man step in the F150 makes sense now !

it’s been almost a decade since I’ve looked back & smiled at a car. I’ve gone through more in the last years than I have previously yet none of them I’ve been as happy with as I was with my truck.

Thanks for the tip, I like the Car Care Nut channel (& I don’t generally watch videos). He’s one that’s gotten me to consider Toyotas but I didn’t see he had a review with the 2.3. I’ll do some reading too on the Bison, as that’s a phenomenal deal! & if they’re here in Calgary even better.

I had the 2.3L in my ‘21 Ranger Lariat 4x4 (not the FX4). It had ‘enough’ power for around town, commuting, and lite towing (I never towed more than 3,500 lbs). But I want to tow a travel trailer up to 6,000ish pounds and I worried that it would be too much for the 2.3 on grades; there is a towing video about towing with the 2.3 (Gen5, but same engine and transmission as G6) at max weight that is informative. Here is another one with the 2.7. Bottom line, the 2.7 doesn't struggle where the 2.3 does on hills. It probably would make it up most grades, but at reduced speeds. That’s why I opted for the 2.7 this time, a truck should be able to do truck things.

The 2.7 is much smoother than the 2.3, notably more powerful, and with the FX4 package an absolute pleasure to drive. With my 32.1" tires, my indicated mileage is a steady 18.3mpg. When I have to go into Anchorage (45mi away), it improves. But I haven't made long enough trips to see what highway mileage is really like.

In terms of your other tradeoffs, once I know what options are available on a trim level, I generally decide on what I'd like to have vs what I need vs what I don't care about, then get what I'd like to have. I inevitably always regret not getting it that way, so might as well just get over the initial pain and be happy in the end.

The FX4 package is much better than the 4x4 package in overall stabilization (cornering, wash-boarding, and bumps in general), plus you'll want the lockers when you're stuck without a winch.

I like the side steps; last truck didn't have them and it was a pain for this aged man to get in the truck bed; plus, now I can straddle the step and tire or the tire and the running board giving better bed access.

A major reason for my trading up was the technology package. The dealer had a lower technology package on the old truck, and after using things like ACC in rental and other family cars, I had to have it, all of it.

I ordered mine last May (Mothers Day) and it was delivered in Alaska at the end of September (it would have been 1st week of September anywhere else in the US). Hey, who knows, maybe if Canada becomes the 51st US State, we could get things faster by train instead of by barge. What do you think?!

Other mods are listed in my signature. I'll be getting a BDS Suspension 2.5" front lift kit when it comes out. This isn't just a coil spacer; it is a true suspension lift kit and I'll get the performance shocks like I did on my Jeep lift kit.
