Ford Ranger BMW to Ranger IMG_0276

Lease is up on the M240i and was pretty hesitant on the feature downgrade going from German Luxury to American Auto. Gotta say, 3 days in and still very impressed with this truck. The ride quality is excellent and the infotainment has been snappy (so far). 2.7L has way more pickup than I was expecting. Plenty of space at 6’2 is awesome in a truck this size.

And of course we are going to prolong the honeymoon period with a level + shoes, so looking forward to the next few months when I can make it happen!

Nice to meet y’all

Welcome. Went from a GT350 to my Ranger and can't say I never miss the Shelby, but this thing is a joy on any road, in any conditions, at any time.

Same here, went from the M2C to a 25 RR. Do I miss her, yeah sometimes. Do I have any regrets, nope1 Off roading is way more fun that track driving. The RR is the M2C of mid sized trucks.

I went from a 2006 M Roadster to a 2012 135M to a Cherokee Trailhawk (needed to be able to tow behind an RV) to a 2025 RR. The RR reminds me of the 135 as far as performance goes but I doubt I'll flog it as hard in the corners.

You can push it pretty hard in corners. Kind of surprising.

I love the M240i
Would love to have one as a second car.
I have a 2.7 ranger i love it though it needs a tune or something to help with the shifting and i was surprised with how much turbo lag it has.
Mine only has 600 miles though and i plan on doing a early oil change soon
