Has anyone had any more updates regarding shipping? The latest I saw was that OKTB was issued and 52 trucks were shipped. I haven’t heard (seen) anything more definitive on this since the initial post. Just curious. ?

The only other update I've seen thus far was the original OKTB was for non-Raptor Rangers. Other than that, crickets...

Dealer sent me an e-mail a couple days ago with ETA of 4/2 - 4/8. I'm still sitting on "built" in the tracker, but maybe this is a solid ETA finally.

I sure seams like a half-hearted attempt to appease the critics at this point and get people excited.

I have three dealers in Maryland that will call me when the "dealer ordered 6G Rangers" arrive. The one thing is that was said to me two weeks ago, and as I have said mine has been in production since 1-11-24 and has been built and sitting in a lot awaiting OKTB status. Nothing is moving but you all know that.

Well some trucks have moved. Last week ~50 had officially shipped out and there was a confirmed ranger delivered to a customer at Brighton Ford in Michigan.

As of this morning I'm seeing the first sign of movement on my truck since it was built in January, so there is definitely something happening. Slowly yes, but there is movement.

where exactly did you see OFFICIAL OKTB published by Ford? The only mention I saw was a post here couple days ago claiming it was the 1st customer Ranger delivered, but other people commented that was a preproduction Ranger driven home by a Ford employee and not a retail unit delivered to a customer. That Original post seems to be gone now?

Ford Authority website has an article from 2 days ago referencing Ford official Feb sales report and saying NO RANGERS have been shipped even though they continue to build them. 1 thing to remember is they have a Media Embargo where any magazines or other media people aren't allowed to publish anything on the new 2024 until embargo lifted- then the flood gates of reviews open and are splashed everywhere. THAT hasn't happened either, so past experience would indicate OKTB is NOT official, and no Rangers allowed to be shipped yet. I could be wrong but nothing convincing out there says deliveries are on the way to dealers...

Brighton Ford in Michigan confirmed on @All Terrain Nation 's latest video that a customer who had an order for a normal Ranger took delivery last week. The salesperson who facilitated this deal is the guest in the video.

As far as I know, Ford has never "officially announced" OKTB to anyone except those who need to know. So you're not going to see anything published by Ford. This was also mentioned in that same video.



Around 48:30 is when the delivered ranger is discussed.

I haven’t seen anything official yet either…that’s why I was asking. The only thing I read was from All Terrain Nation. He had a live podcast the other night and had a Ford salesperson from somewhere in Michigan. She said her dealership already received an XLT. I didn’t state I had seen anything official. Just curious if anyone had.

Your embargo isn’t 100%. Generally you are allow to show some photos depending on the car or truck.. I was at the launch of Ranger last April or so and could show some ranger stuff but couldn’t offer full reviews till the E-date.
Embargo’s are never the same..

The Ranger drive is next week and since I’m not attending I did ask a colleague who is and he hasn’t been told the embargo date yet.

The past week or so has been a nightmare at Ford for media.. As a rule nothing gets shipped till PR has a chance to launch their campaigns but this time it’s been a mixed bag.
A source I have close to the Ranger told me two months back one not of news and then I get the wife of a ford programmer spreading stuff on Facebook about ok2buy done.
My dealer friend and cohost at Brighton Ford has had one XL STX (prev reported XLT by me) sold at her dealership. The gentleman paid cash and moved on..
I’m not sure anymore what is going on with Ford lol..
