Howdy everyone,

I'm new to these streets! I just picked up Puddin' a couple weeks back. My first vehicle purchase like a big boi ? I've always had Jeeps until now-- destiny sort of led me to this beauty. I ain't doing any hardcore trucking, but I am excited to see how she handles the ever-intensifying weather of Michigan. Ya'll have some beauties-- I am fixated on looking at all the mods. Never had any interest in it, and know nothing about vehicles, but I am happy to meet you fine folks!! Much love ^.^

Dan here, I most recently drove an '06 and '08 Dakota. Since 2011 and 2013. Totalled the '06 which lead to the '08. I bought those because I knew it would be my last opportunity to drive a V8, I was right.

SWMBO was in the passenger seat for a 500km trip and said I needed a new truck. I was waiting until Rangers had been out five years or so, to allow somebody else to pay the depreciation. Alas, around here used cost more than new, if you can find new. I was able to locate one here, dressed about the way I wanted. Still waiting for the cap to come in.

2021 Ranger XL STX
Hey all,

Just picked up my '21 STX and I'm loving it so far. It's been less than a week and I already have a bunch of changes in mind after seeing what other folks have done on here. This is my first truck so I have some research and learning to do first, but I'm excited! Thanks.

I am new here but I am in the process to start the order process on the MY22 Ranger with Granger Ford. I am in no rush but I currently drive a modified 2013 Scion FRS and want to move this to a fully dedicated track car so I need a daily driver that can also tow and haul the family(2 kids and wife)

Ford Ranger offers the best bang for your buck as I don't want a full size. Looking at the following config:

XLT, 301 group, Sport Pkg, Cactus Gray, FX2 with LT tire option. I only plan to light off-road thus the FX2 and 2WD is worth saving $$ and gas as I am SoCal so really this should be enough.

How big/old are the kids? I have a 6 and 4 year old and for now it works fine now that we don’t have car seats and we have boosters. Otherwise, with full size car seats the back isn’t going to get them much room. Other than that, this dad does appreciate the fact that my kids love the rig and they think it makes me cooler than when I drove a full size suv.
5 and 3. 5 year old is in booster and the 3 year old is almost there for booster. He is big for his age.

Welcome, Lots of cactus gray Rangers lately. I finally saw one in the wild the other day and kind of like it. It's not better than my Iconic Silver but a great color none the less.

I gotta ask, what format racing? Time Trail, Road or just track days for fun? I got a friend in CA that has been going to Buttonwillow, Auto Club and I think Chuckwalla.

I got my Ranger for about the same reason, it can pull my Civic or my RS on an open trailer, I know with that 84 it's only a matter of time before it can't drive home, even the RS for that matter.

I am debating between CG or VB. I just can't decide. I really love both colors.

2021 Ford Roush Ranger
Hi There … my lovely Ford Fans?

I’m Mack, completely new here. Just bought a 2021 Roush Ranger .. Oxford White. One heck of a truck ?

kinda curious why we don’t have a Roush Ranger area … we have Tremor and Raptor but nothing for us cool and unique and rare Jack Roush’s?

Look forward to chatting it up with you guys!

Welcome Mack....Nice looking Roush Ranger! There's a few others on here but I don't think there's enough to dedicate a whole area for them just yet. There's a ton of info on here and many willing to help out when in need. Especially when it comes to spending other peoples money on mods. ?
