The last 2 Fords I owned (F150 & F250) OE shocks sucked! My Ranger rode OK, but I finally convinced myself to go aftermarket and ordered Eibach adjustable front shocks & rear shocks. I settled on 1.5" setting for front because I will be pulling a 5000 pound Travel Trailer and wanted to keep some rake. Have to say as with my last 2 Fords the ride is much improved with the Eibach's! Not rough, but is controlled better than OE. Here's a before/after with several other poses...:fingerscrossed:

It's a small thing, but couldn't pass them up.

There was one larger oddball shaped mat, but it's for the passenger rear storage area under the seat. Other than that, these dropped right in perfectly. The gray ties into the brush chrome look on the interior dash.

Yesterday I gave my a truck a "waterless" wash using Black Magic Waterless Carwash. It had rained overnight so I had tons of pollen and dirt that had blown onto the paint. I should have taken a before and after pic. Turned out pretty well and I ended up using the entire bottle, and for $3 after a coupon, I can't complain. Here's a link to what I used. I'll go take a pic of what it looks like today and update the post.

Also I just noticed, but I guess I de-badged my EcoBoost badge when I had the dealership fix a scratch they caused when they installed the tailgate lock wrong. Guessing they never put it back on when they repainted the tailgate. I'm not mad, though. I was planning on taking it off or blacking it out altogether. looks cleaner back there now.

I'm sorry! More questions! Just to confirm; these reuse your stock springs and are adjustable? are they "infinitely adjustable" or are there adjustment settings? I'm assuming you had to disassemble you stock shock assembly and switch these over using all of the factory hardware?

Use stock springs and the adjustment is stock to 3"...and yes you remove stock springs and install on new shocks.
