I'm lucky to have a locally owned dealership that is not part of a chain. Their service department is decent because the place isn't a revolving door for service and sales people. Some of the competing outfits have stores in three states. Profit is the bottom line for them, not customer...

I traded in my 2005 Ranger FX4 when I bought my '21 STX. This truck is head and shoulders above the '05. I do wish it was a tad smaller, but it handles a 3000-lb tow much better than the old truck. And the power is night and day. The transmission has been spot on. I'm very happy. Oh, and I...

I drove my Ranger home today. Ordered it Feb. 20. The dealer (a small, family-owned operation in southern Wis) had nine new vehicles on the lot. The salesman said they usually have 50.

I talked to my dealer yesterday and he told me my truck has been built and is on its way. He predicted an arrival date of somewhere between June 30 and July 6. I ordered the truck on Feb 20. It's a pretty basic model but with 4WD, locking diff, towing pkg and sliding rear window. Oh yeah, and I...

I was thinking of getting a bug deflector so I could add a graphic message, like "grandpa's toy." I was thinking of "Mister Ranger, Sir!"

Jaegermeister, I see we're both pretty new on the forum. As a Minnesotan are you familiar with Paul Bunyan's axe? I'll offer my view on the FX4 package; maybe others will disagree, but they can offer their own perspectives. If you're not a rock-crawler, I don't think it's worth the premium. If...

What kind of "stealership fee" are they trying to squeeze out of you? $29K sounds very good to me, but "stealership fee" raises red flags. This is 4WD, correct? You're already looking at an end-of-year deal with the 2020. Maybe holding off until the end of the month will give you some more...

Hello forum! I ordered a race red XL supercab last month with 4WD, towing, STX package, locking rear diff and sliding rear window. Price is $31,594 plus tax & title. Incentives and trade on my 2005 Ranger FX4 TBD.
