Hi all, Im Nate
Just picked up my Ranger on Saturday.
2025 Lariat, 2.7, Black pkg, Trailer/Tow, Rear side step.
I was looking for a long time and honed in on this and another identical build in Shadow Black. This Carbonized Grey one dropped over $1000 so I called dibs at $45,945. Wish they had Velocity Blue, love that color. But so far I LOVE this truck. Already throwing on goodies with always more to add on the list. Looking forward to being a part of this community and the information and good times it provides.

Thanks all, less than a week and already in for $1200 worth of add ons 🙃. (I track all additional costs with receipts, and mentally, for big items. It's not a great habit, the house maintenance and renovation totals are floating into my skull right now...)
But big shout out to Amber with RealTruck, reached out for info regarding any upcoming sales, instead I got a straight up discount offer and was able to make the tonneau (Gator EFX) happen sooner than I thought. Thank you.

So far
-Musology center armrest cover (thick)
-stubby antenna
-Husky rain gaurd/wind visors
-Green Filter air filter
-Gator EFX hard tonneau
-Air design side fender vents
-Ford all weather mats

Next up intercooler, CV Fab most likely

Hard looking at the Ford Performance 2.7 tune, but im going to patiently hold out hope for more custom tune/tuner options, and let my mind entertain the idea of just dropping the 3.0 in.

Any mods you all have done that you couldn't live without?

Hell yea man. The Carbonized Grey is growing on me more.
I was going for lowest price possible (and 2 weeks ago if you googled lowest price 2025 2.7 ranger lariat, my truck popped up lol) Would have loved the FX4 pkg. I dont do any serious off roading, just getting to and around mine and buddies properties in Missouri "mountains" but also afraid if I did wind up with the FX4 package I'd be more inclined to go break stuff 😅. Still a great truck you got.

Gator EFX hard tri fold from RealTruck. Fits great, easy install ~1hr. Gonna let it sit in the sun for 3 hrs then run it through my local car wash and look for any leaks to seal up.

Next up intercooler? What are your plans? I got the thick armrest and love it and the console organizer.

Yes i love the arm rest and organizer as well. Just did an 18hr day recently, 11 of those driving, and realized im going to have to do some sort of seat modification, my hips are still sore. Idk if its the seat angle, unable to go flat, or the foam and me being 6'3 300 lol. But that is immediate project.

This is future plan for next year

I noticed you don't have running boards, are you planning any?

I ordered 2025 Ranger Lariat 4x4 Carbonized Gray. I placed my order Oct 3 and I have received a confirmation with a production schedule for the week of Dec 8th. Looking forward to the new truck replacing a 2021 F150.

Do you have a deal sheet? I'm still shopping and $45k for a v6 sounds like a major deal.

What do you mean by deal sheet? I bought from a local (2hrs away) volume dealer that drops the price, every week a vehicle sits on their lot.
