White Ranger Raptor - Journal

[galion]

Check out my new Ranger Raptor! Initially, I had doubts about the white color in the photos, but seeing it in person completely changed my perspective. It led me to choose it over the black one I had originally ordered.
First thing I did was install a set of EVO Corse 17”x8” +30 wheels, making the OE tires sidewalls sit flush with the fenders. Additionally, I added a Bakflip MX4 tonneau cover from the 5th Gen Ranger, the fitment was perfectly precise with no gaps. I also painted the front tow hooks Code Orange and tinted the windows with 3M 20% Color Stable.
More mods to come...

Awesome truck guys, can’t wait for you all to get yours so we can exchange information and share our experiences.

Nice. I'm sold on White cars. My first one was an Outback that I bought used in 2015. It was in a 2009 with 26K miles on it, in perfect condition. I was so impressed with white that I will never own another color. Noticeably cooler in the summer and doesn't show the dirt. My current truck is a white 5G scab.

I'm holding my breath for a 6G supercab, but I may suffocate before that comes, if ever.

I see you have the front license plate mount. First one I have seen. How solid is it??. I want to mount my LED light to it via a Vision X license plate mount but thinking it not that solid.

Unfortunately, the license plate mount is not solid enough; it flexes easily.

Is this a US or Thai truck?

So I see you have or had a 5th Gen Raptor too? What’s the biggest difference between the two? So you’re originally from Charlotte, NC?

Yep, originally from NC and currently living between Peru and Chile for work. Yes, I have both the 5th and 6th generation Ranger Raptors, and they are quite different. Obviously, the 6th generation is superior in every aspect. The most notable difference is that the 5G has a 210hp 2.0 diesel engine, which is slow and struggles to accelerate, but once it's moving, it's acceptable. In contrast, the 6G has plenty of power, a lot! In my opinion, the 5G only surpasses it in terms of suspension. I find the passive suspension more comfortable than the 6G's Active suspension, which is a tad firmer.

Nothing, just a call to my preferred dealer.

Looks amazing. Love the Evo Corse wheels on this. Do you know what the stock wheel size and offset are?

17x8.5 +30

 

[galion]

17x8.5 +30

Edit:
Stock wheels are 17x8.5 +55
These EVO Corse are 17x8 +30, which is the only available width with a 93.1 hub, perfect fit flush with fenders.
