2022 Xlt Redesign

[Samsquanch]

That’s real ugly. Gen5 looks really good in comparison. I’ve had a feeling Ford wouldn’t exercise much creativity here and would try to homologize the design to look like the F series. Instead of saying I’m a mid size truck buyer it just says I couldn’t afford an F150.

Looks like an Old Mans truck.

I agree with Trig and Sam, not gonna happen so soon.

 

[GregsFX2Ranger]

I'll pass . . . Too F150'ish looking.

 

[Bob902]

Nope. Not for me

Hi Folks,

While this might be suspected to change in 2022, I doubt it would be done as it is costly and for only one year makes no sense. Also, this kind of change to the truck's nose would be market tested to the general public in closed reviews and I have not heard of this going on. I fear this is a photoshop hoax or is a ROW exercise that we won't see in these shores...

Alpharex PRO. About $600 and they look and work great. I did a review in the lighting section.

No, those are factory. The Tremor comes with the red nostrils. They are plastic that clips into the grille

Looks like Ford modeled it after the F-150.

That's the problem!

 

[DukeCanBuildit]

Hmmmm, not my choice ? It also looks like there’d be limited choice for aftermarket fog lamps.

That's the problem!

I was thinking that Lee, but just didn't say it out loud.

From your mouth to the Ford Gods ears Phil. I would like the Ranger to have more of it's own look rather than it be a mini F-150. I just hope it's not a sign of things to come.

Hey guys what do you think of the new 2022 front-end redesign of the Ranger? Everything looks the same except for the front end....

I think if I wanted an F-150, I would buy an F-150. One of the things we liked best about the Ranger is it didn't look like all the other "Kleenex Box" looking trucks.

Next they'll muck up the interior and make it look every other truck too.

All these changes folks are talking about makes me glad we bought our 2019.
