Hello, I just purchased a new 24 stx shadow black ranger and installed side steps, tonneau cover and had the windows tinted. My ranger is basic with 4×4, tow package , carpeted floors and floor mats. I have only put 700 miles on my ranger but I am enjoying driving it so far.

Welcome!! I got the grey 2wd version of your truck and am very very happy with it. I did the steps, cover, and hood/window guards because here in south texas, all vehicles seem to come with tinted windows when new.


Just an fyi, dont buy window rain guards unless you want to add wind noise while driving. If they wouldnt have cost so much, i would take them off, ha ha ha.

Pretty truck. Ford did this right, regardless of your trim (XL, XLT, Lariat) the truck has a very premium look. Stripper trim Tacomas and Frontiers look stripped, the Ranger is much superior visually.
I agree and also test drove a Tacoma Sr the base model. I found it had less power, only one recovery point in the front, driver visibility was not as good and cost $ 6000 more. The Ranger is a better choice and truck.

Thank you, I won't be installing rain guards but I did order a 5'×8'×1/4" rubber mat that I'm going to cut to fit for a bed and tailgate mat.

And let’s face it; looks are important when it comes to Stripper Trim…

Not a stripper trim, same engine, Trans, same body and similar interior. Just say nice truck and move on.
