I just ordered a wildtrack 2019

[Peter Sundström]

Hello,
I just ordered a wildtrack 2019 but I have never tried any and think of some things hoping the forum can help me.

1 How does the cabin experience noise compared to a regular car?

2 Do you have any thoughts on how to upgrade the speakers in the car, is there any kit from Ford?

Hi Peter,

The good news on question 2 is there are many folks that have replaced their speakers with aftermarket speakers. I recommend you use the search function to locate relevant threads on this topic.

As for question 1, I think most folks on this forum do not know much about the ROW (Rest of the World) Ranger, including me, so this is a difficult question to answer. I do not have any idea what sort of sound package was developed for the Wildtrack, but I had opportunity last year when in Australia and New Zealand for two months to chat with Wildtrack owners and they gave the truck very positive comments on how non truck and more car like the Wildtrack is. Hope this gives you some encouragement for your new truck.

Best,

The American version Ranger is very quiet IMO. For perspective, I came from a Wrangler which is about as road noisy as it gets. I would recommend driving your vehicle for a while without making modifications. It takes a while to get used to the nuances in any new vehicle. I held back a year from making any mods on my Jeep. In the end I was at my third audio system. The US B&O sound system in upper trim levels is as good as the third system (pioneer NEX) I moved to in the Jeep.
