Was really hoping to build a 2022 Ranger or wait for the redesign, but my wife's car blew up just before Christmas and it put us in a bind. The net result was getting a Colorado Z71 that I caught in transit in this spiffy sand dune color. Not exactly what I wanted, but it came with a damper, sooooo :)

Started with 2 on the odometer this morning, up to 140. Loving it so far!

Hoping to reassess the market in a couple years, maybe join team Ranger in the 6th gen.

Thanks for all your help with my many questions over the past few months! Wish the Ranger crew nothing but the best!

2 on the odometer is a good sign. Means it wasn't shunted and shuffled around awaiting repairs in final conditioning, it was off the, roll test, then in to the shipping yard! Best of luck!

Everything happens for a reason and this will be a good truck for you now. Hopefully prices for used vehicles stays high and you can trade it in (if you want one) for the next gen Ranger. Good luck with your new truck!

We had a guy when we started building Camaro's in 2010 caught on camera doing donuts at the far end of the car plant. I think he got a 30 days suspension for joyriding. ☹

Is it the V6 or the mini dirtymax??? The colorado ZR2 with a duramax was my first choice, I just couldnt find one. The ranger is fitting the bill so far tho. Congrats on the new whip!!!

The lowest I've ever had on a new vehicle was 6 miles on my 2018 Pro4X Frontier.

My 2017 Wrangler had 10 when I first looked at it and 40 when I bought it. I took it for a good test drive.

My Ranger had 22 :eek:

Nice color! Good luck with it. I've had my 1 ton GM for 6 years and while the dumb interior stuff is annoying; the important bits have been good to me.

I had a Maverick on order.. something similar happened and I ran into a good deal as well. Just stuck with Ford this time around. Now the driveway has 2 GMs, one Kia, and a Ford.

It’s too bad it didn’t turn out as planned but you still ended up with a nice looking truck. I hope it serves you well. All the best.

Thanks! It even had the chips for the heated steering wheel, seats, and rear sensors. Lucked into finding this one in transit.
