Just for Fun: If You Were the Ranger Designer, What Would You Change?

[NM Mike]

I’m thinking that one of these would be a popular option.

I'll take two!!!

What chime?

Mine chimes 3 times when you turn the cruise on, and have adaptive cruise off. 2024 lariat

* Bring back the metal front bumper.
* Standard bed steps.
* Kill ASS now that it’s no longer required.
* Small air vent above the phone charging pad.
* A “standard” driver display option with round speedo and tach.

That's weird. My '26 Raptor doesn't do that.

Yes, give us a was to get rid of the dumb ASS. It’s infuriating! I would prefer it was a stand alone option that could be ordered by the few that want it.

On my 5G, all I had to do was keep something plugged into the 120VAC port. It sensed a load and turned off ASS. That doesn't work on my 6G.

Have the Braptor seats as an option. Auto down for the rear windows. Rear vents in the center console. Little details. I love the truck but with anything there can be some minor improvements that can make a big difference. (@Granite Stater memory mirrors was a big miss. Adding electronic adjustable steering wheel linked to the memory seats would be nice too).

Lol, you don't want the RR seats, their quality is absolute crap

Minor little tweaks- HVAC controls off the touchscreen, some kind of bed step, passenger visor mirror, better speakers

The lack of a tuning knob for the radio system drives me nuts. The lack of a tune knob is unsafe. It forces the driver to watch the screen while searching for a station. Even if something is stored in memory and on the screen I still have to look down at the screen.

I think that is stupid planning, especially since they gave two temperature knobs.

Here's my list (I have a Ranger Raptor):

- Sunroof
- cooled seats
- Interior trim package option WITHOUT orange accents
- vinyl floor option
- 60/40 rear bench
- Switch in bed for bed lighting, or bed lighting that comes on w/ key fob unlock button press
- Steel modular front bumper a la F150 Raptor and Braptor
- Amber DRL's from the factory
- STAKE POCKETS THAT DON'T DRAIN INTO THE BED!

Isn't that kinda what the F-150 Raptor R is...?

Close but 50,000 reasons why it’s not.

 

[Buellsox]

As Westrescue77 said above :
VINYL FLOORS / carpet delete option 100%

 

[Medic 6]

Agree with the comments so far. How about code orange paint, iconic silver, or like a grabber blue?

 

[VelocityRaptor]

This is what I’d love to see as an upgrade on my RR
Moonroof/Sunroof
Ventilated seats
OEM Raptor grill lights
Amber DRLs
Alcantara seats from the F150 Raptor 37
Code Orange exterior paint color

 

[Lion77]

Maybe instead of a super charged V8 option, a 7.3L Ford Performance Godzilla option. Not as much power as the Raptor R, but big upgrade in power and V8 awesomeness in a Ranger...I know some on this forum was doing a conversion, I know there's super charge 5.0L swaps that get you to 750 HP, but all that is gonna require major powertrain upgrades which makes the whole thing about as spendy as a Raptor R then...so that's why I say NA big block SOC V8. Old school, big power but not too big.

Alternative backup camera by the third brake light that the truck automatically uses when the tailgate is down.

Also 60/40 split rear seat. I have a baby seat back there but still want to fold the bench.
