After months of playing wait and see, it looks like things are finally happening! With any luck, this beaut'll be in my driveway in less than two weeks, just in time for my road trip to the Bourbon Trail. I'm debating whether to go ahead and order my accessories so that they're ready to install...
I’m legit curious whether my build date was set with these closings in mind or not. The story I read says the Ranger/Bronco facility shutdown coming in July is due to an “unrelated parts shortage,” whatever that portends. I guess I’ll get my truck when I get it!
UPDATE: Got my VIN this morning, and my Ranger’s scheduled to be built the week of August 16th. So, about four months from order to production, and then a bit more to wait for delivery. Good thing I’m not in a hurry, but regardless, I’m excited that it’s creeping closer!
I don't know whether anyone else is worrying, but for my part, my only real concerns are 1) that the Ranger plant shut down for 2+ weeks due to the chip shortage, which would almost have to introduce some delays, I'd think, and 2) my salesperson seems to think it's taking longer than she...
Well, that's good news at least! I'd take some comfort in the Ranger showing up in the picture behind the Bronco, but I have no idea if this is a stock photo or not. :)
Hadn't heard about that! Might have to see if I can track down the info to pass on to my salesperson...
I think my order got transmitted to Ford while the Ranger plant was shut down. Part of the reason I'm curious if they've restarted production is to decide whether I should be worried about...
Hi All,
As some of you may recall, I ordered my 2021 XLT in April, and the dealership said their next order allotment would come in late May. I checked in with my (very nice) salesperson last week, and she said the order's still not showing up as being in Ford's system, so no VIN yet. I'm not...
Hi All,
So my Ranger CC in Cactus Gray is currently on order with the Blue Oval, and I've got my fingers crossed that I might have it in my driveway by late summer. In the meantime, I've been trying to figure out what add-ons I want to get for it when it arrives. Currently, I'm planning on...
Glad I locked in my incentives when I ordered my XLT last month. They were listed as being good until 7/6, but I just checked Ford's website and saw they'd all dropped by $250. I got $1750 off my XLT, but the current incentive listed is $1500. Something tells me that either the Rangers are...
I just ordered my Ranger from the Ford dealer here in town. Their starting price was invoice, and though they wouldn't come off it, with the incentives it came in well under sticker. Oddly, I called some Ford dealerships in Indy and they were starting at MSRP and not coming off. Don't know if...
So I found this AMP bed extender on Amazon. It says it's for a 2019 Ranger, but Amazon tells me it doesn't fit a 2021 Ranger. I suspect Amazon's compatibility database just isn't updated, but I was wondering if anyone could confirm that this extender actually does fit a 2021 Ranger...
So I'm probably opening up a can of worms here, but I've seen this tuning stuff mentioned enough that I'm curious. So when people on here with more mechanical savvy than me use the word "tune," they're not talking about an actual mechanical tune-up, right? These tunes are about reprogramming the...
Thanks for the info! Do you happen to have a link for the model you bought? I'm finding a lot of extenders, but they don't always make it clear whether they'll fit a Ranger or not. I do like the look of the AMPs, though!
Great stuff so far! Regarding the bedliners, I passed on the Ford factory spray-in liner because it cost more than the local Rhino liner place (which now sounds like maybe not the place to go), and because of some videos I saw of easily it can be removed. Sounds like my best pro options at this...
Hi All,
As some of you may have heard in other threads, I pulled the trigger yesterday on ordering a 2021 Ranger 4x2 SuperCrew with the 302A package, tech package, rear locker, and tow package. I waited on some other upgrades either to save money or because they're cheaper/better aftermarket...
I'd more or less gathered this from the overall trend of conversations on here, but having just placed an order for my Ranger, it's nice to see someone make this view explicit. I know there's always a chance that my truck could be a lemon with fuel in the oil, cascading electronic failures, and...
