Picked up mine 3/29 and have only seen maybe half a dozen. Mostly Lariats. I live in the Dallas area and have no doubt they will take off soon.
Mine was probably one of those Lariats. I haven't seen any Rangers in months. Only at Bob Tomes Ford!

I’ve seen 2 in the past 4 months. The first was a gray one that was gone before I could figure out what trim level it was. Weeks went by before I saw the second one, a nice blue Lariat.

I did see a bunch on the lot this past weekend when my wife took her Fusion in for service. I sat in a gray XLT that had everything I wanted on it. The same salesman who sold my wife her car came out and we started talking Rangers. He actually admitted to me that they cost too much. I couldn't believe he said it. Here's hoping there's deals to be had when the lots fill up.

Saw my first one in the wild yesterday. A red one with temp tags heading north on I-70 just above Havelock. I was stuck behind a semi while they had a clear lane. Was not able to get close. They were several vehicles ahead of me and before I could get around slower traffic the light had changed and they made it through.

Starting to see a lot more around here in the South SF Bay Area. Last week I was behind a Magnetic colored one. Dunno the specific's cause I was never beside it. This morning, I passed a white STX that had a business name on the side of it.

After picking up my Ranger last April 16th, I went till last Wednesday (July 3rd) before I finally saw another that wasn't' on a dealer's lot. I saw a silver XLT in the Sam's Club lot in Placentia, CA. Spoke with the owner and he had actually bought it in Missoula, Montana. I chuckled to myself ("I have to wait for someone to drive one down from Montana to finally see one on the road?') LOL

I've seen 3 in the last 2 weeks. One 2 towns over in a driveway at night so I couldn't get any details, I saw a white 1 on I-95 North in VA while going from Williamsburg to DC. It went by me so fast all I saw was the tailgate by the time I realized it was a Ranger. Finally today on I-95 North just south of Philadelphia I passed a Magnetic XLT Supercrew. Good to see more of them on the road!

I've seen more Rangers than Gladiators (0).
I've seen 3 other rangers and one gladiator. I saw the Gladiator trying to fit in a automatic car wash with some difficulty...

I’m surprised I haven’t seen more, probably only 4-5 since I’ve owned mine. Haven’t seen yours around @LewisLegacy but I have seen a magnetic sport running around Beavercreek
