  1. LIGHTNING BLUE Ranger Club Thread

    Picked this up yesterday, really like how it looks day and night!
  2. FORD Finance

    I noticed that some dealers are starting to offer discounts on the Ranger, ranging from $500 to $1000 here in Washington. Hopefully this means financing incentives aren't far behind!
  3. Buying Dealer Stock Instead of Waiting for Order

    Fair point, but I am not suggesting that they speed up production just for the sake of time, but rather that presented with a good alternative or near match to what I ordered I have no problem purchasing it instead of the truck I ordered. Besides, this may provide me with a better fitting...
  4. Running tally of VIN #, order date and build date by Ranger5G member (2019 MY)

    Ha ha janky transmissions are good, they add to the "rough and ready" truck experience!
  5. Buying Dealer Stock Instead of Waiting for Order

    So I spoke with my dealer and they are willing to apply my deposit and negotiated discounts towards a stock Ranger once it arrives. The one they are receiving is close enough to what I ordered that they feel confident that they will have no trouble selling the Ranger I ordered. I do not have...
  6. Running tally of VIN #, order date and build date by Ranger5G member (2019 MY)

    I started with an XLT but after some thought figured that as long as I am going to pay a premium and make this my one vehicle for the next ten years I might as well get what I want.
  7. HOT PEPPER RED Ranger Club Thread

    EcoRanger those look like four different colors!
  8. Buying Dealer Stock Instead of Waiting for Order

    Fair point, and is likely what I will end up doing. The wait time gives me the chance to save up a nice down payment and continue to build my credit score. The Ranger I am eyeballing that is expected to be at the dealer by the end of February is almost the same as what I want except it has...
  9. Buying Dealer Stock Instead of Waiting for Order

    What has been said makes a lot of sense and is how I am feeling. Whenever I talk to my sales rep he acts like it is such a burden to provide me any information, if I get a response at all. The minute I gave them the $1000 deposit they stopped caring, or so it seems. Hopefully I can talk them...
  10. Buying Dealer Stock Instead of Waiting for Order

    Has anyone ordered a Ranger then decided to buy a Ranger that was later on the lot? The dealership I am going through doesn't even have a VIN yet for my order but will have an almost identical truck to mine on their lot by the end of the month. Was the dealer willing to apply your deposit...
  11. Running tally of VIN #, order date and build date by Ranger5G member (2019 MY)

    Makes sense, I am also waiting for a build week and VIN.
  12. 2020 Toyota Tacoma debut at Chicago auto show

    This was the deciding factor for me too. As much as I don't like to admit it 98% of the driving I will be doing in this truck is back and forth to work, so it is basically a commuter that is capable of weekend adventures. Comfort and good driving characteristics are a must. When I test drove the...
  13. 2020 Toyota Tacoma debut at Chicago auto show

    Admittedly most people on this forum are a little biased but I tend to agree with what is being said. Couldn't bring myself to buy a Tacoma, and the 2020 doesn't really address the things I disliked the most about it. I am also not a fan of the crowd that buys Tacomas here in the PNW, a lot of...
  14. Insurance Rate

    I will be shopping for insurance once I have a VIN as well. So far my current insurance provider GEICO gave me a rough quote to replace my 05 Forester. I will be going from basic liability only to comp and collision. Still need to tweak the numbers but my insurance approximately doubled to...
  15. Trucks w/o Tow Package?

    I added the tow package to my order at the last minute, felt wrong to have a truck without it. Seems that more and more people are buying trucks with no intention of using them as a "truck", so maybe that's why so few have the hitches?
  16. Running tally of VIN #, order date and build date by Ranger5G member (2019 MY)

    Nice! What was your build? My order was Jan 17th, you being the 14th is giving me hope!
  17. What is everyone paying for their 5th Gen Ranger?

    I started by going through the Costco order program to get a base discount then worked with local dealerships to see if they could beat it. The Costco discount on a XLT FX4 was $2600 off MSRP. I was able to find a dealership that would beat the Costco discount and later changed my order to a...
  18. New Members Introduce Yourself!

    Hello all, I am Jack and I am located in the PNW. I placed my order for a Ranger Lariat on January 17th and can't wait to take delivery. Joined the forum to learn as much as I can about the truck and share some of my experiences as they occur. Order was for: -Lariat SuperCrew -FX4 -501A -Tow...
  19. What car/truck are you replacing with the new Ranger?

    I will be replacing my 2005 Subaru Forester. It has been nice car for commuting, snowboarding and biking but has had a few problems and needs work. I finally graduated and have been working and saving for a couple years now, the Ranger will be my first new car. Looking forward to no longer being...
  20. Running tally of VIN #, order date and build date by Ranger5G member (2019 MY)

    Thank you! I'll keep this thread updated as I receive more info. I will also share my ordering and purchasing info on the other thread.
