See my build sheet, I have a 2.3 liter V-6, I’m trying to add build sheet but having a problem. Do you see it?
its 2.3 ecoboost on the build sheet (ecoboost 4 cylinder). The Ranger was only available with the 2.3 inline 4. not available in any configuration with a V-6

Another advantage of blue I guess.

I love the black! Don't see many black ones. I had a black F150 for 20 years and I miss it (when it was clean, lol). Good looking Ranger.

“I just like sitting up higher and having a truck." You and me both, Buddy! Great looking Ranger!
So this is my third ranger. First was a 2019 lariat non fx4 purchased in 2019, Loaded other than fx4. I live in Arizona and routinely off road, and never thought I needed the fx4 because of its composite skid plates. Second one I bought was lariat loaded with fx4 after ford bought mine back in 2021. Huge difference in ride. The nicest riding vehicle I have ever owned. I took a job in Dallas two years ago, and was commuting. Bought a cheap big bend bronco sport as a commuter car last March. It was a good car, but I’m spending more time in Dallas, and hate “cars”. I just like sitting up higher and having a truck. So after getting a house in Dallas, my next buy was another ranger. Still have my ranger in Arizona and use it two weeks a month at my other house. I have been looking for a certified ranger for months. Can’t find new rangers anywhere, finally found a 2022 which was sold in February of 2023. Had 19000 miles on it, oil changes every 5000. So the person bought it in February of 2023, sold it in September of 2023 with 19000 miles. It was a commuter truck I guess. Lariat, black appearance, 4x4, technology package etc. My wife thinks it rides better, I now can’t tell the difference, but the road quality in Arizona is not in the same ballpark as Dallas. It still rides great. Sat at a Chrysler dealer for 4 months. 35000 price. Just love these trucks. I have had f-150’s, explorers, etc during the 8 years they quit making them. Nothing rides the same, or fits in garages. Quick, great ride, roomy, very few downsides. Every item I buy another one, I just smile. Love these trucks. And I have had couple fingers of lagavulin…just saying.

My 2022, bought new, love the truck! Had an F-250 diesel before, don't need such a big truck. I've had F-150's too, but this Ranger is roomy for my 6'2" body, rides nice, fantastic power, and great fuel economy 23-24. I don't get the hate on the FX4 shocks, it rides nice on the road, very controlled for moderate off roading, it's perfect for me. Happy my ordered Bronco didn't come in, more truck, less money.

Beauty! How long does it stay this glossy off-roading in AZ?

The black truck stays in Dallas, and in the garage so it stays pretty clean. California car dusters are in all my trucks under the rear seat. Hate a detailed truck that’s dusty. You know it’s clean underneath, but it doesn’t look clean…bam California duster and its detailed again.

literally everything you could want in a ranger. It’s perfect. Rides better, all the technology, it’s fast, etc etc. if you are in the fence, just pull the trigger. Just trying to find a set of 5th gen black rims to swap mine out.
