Beautifull truck ! Congrats. Wish i could find the part number for your rims. I dislike my 2024 Lariat's rims. I want the blacked out rims like yours , looks much better.
They all look great but I agree--the black rims definitely add something.

Nice! I came from a full size truck as well (F-150) and the Ranger really does handle like a go cart in comparison. The only real negative is the much smaller backseat area of the Ranger, have to be more mindful of what stuff I want to keep back there.
I agree--that back seat will be an adjustment for me too. On my Ram 1500, I used to put my bike back there, standing up with both wheels still on. I'm not sure the bike will even fit in the bed of this one!

Oh cool, I didn't realize that! Does that mean it's value will go up :crackup:
Also the last year for Real leather and projector LED headlights in the Lariat.
26 model Lariat has a fake leather, and LED reflector headlight barrowed from the XLT.

The 2026 Lariat is spend more for less. ActiveX vinyl? On a Lariat? That's Maverick Lariat ActiveX territory.

My bike barely fit in the bed of my f150. So I just assumed it wouldn’t fit in the bed of the ranger, but it actually fits better! My f150 had a drop in bedliner that I guess was taking up some bed length due to the thickness.

Oh wow! That’s a shame. I’ve been fascinated by the headlights. So cool to watch them dance around at startup. I’m starting to like my purchase decision even more. Thanks for making me feel better!
