That’s one question I did have, why did they go from aluminum to steel? Cheaper? Mine are steel.
Pretty sure it was October of 2020 the change over happened. Could have been a few months earlier but not by much though

Not that I am complaining but it was a thing on my mental check list to remove/mod when I first got it. But looking at the tailgate it is not there and I just washed it and didn't see it anywhere. Not sure if it is a normal thing now or the plant just missed putting it on.
my 2021 didn't come with one

Why the push to remove the badge? Seems almost an emotional point to some? Not criticizing, just curious.

I always laughed when I saw it on Mustangs. Who wants to advertise a 4 cyl American sports car?

I planned on removing it from my late 2020 build, but it didn't come with one. My reasons: I didn't think it looked good, or match my vehicle. It's also another thing to wash/wax around.

I removed mine the first week I had the truck along with the FX4 stickers on the rear fenders. My Ranger is a 2020.

I actually added a set to the lower front door. I like the detail of color to break up the amount of white. Still debating on doing black door handles.

Stopped putting them on. Not included on the 2021. Not sure about 2020.
Another item they deleted from 2019 models...we should start a list...

1-console tray
2-PRNDL light
3-glove box damper
4-tow hooks
5-ECOBOOST badge

What else?

There is a glove box damper on the 2019? What they should do is like the F250-350 is above the glove box is another glove box. In our Rangers it's a waste of space above the glove box. Just thought I would throw that out there.

Mine didn't come with an ecoboost badge, but I did get a "NorthWest Edition" badge.
