Hmm I thought maybe they removed the switches and installed a tray to put their junk :shock: there is always "That Guy"

if it was an option on XLT I wonder how many they actually built that way... I would think most dealers ordered them with the upfitter switches (there is always a goofy dealer ordering one off's) hey it's rare!

The upfitter switches were not a separate option. They were only included with the Tremor package and not trim dependent. See attached 2022 buyers guide option description. It was the same for 2023. Somebody probably removed them and replaced with the normal dash tray. Value of the truck should be decreased by $10K 😂

Wow, they told me it was an option on the XLT Tremor. I would hate to buy a truck from this dealer where even the sales manager doesn't know what he's talking about.

Wait until he calls me back in a couple of days and I ask him for his email and to explain this. lol

Where the tremor models not strictly up-fitted Lariats? So wouldn't LED head light units be standard on them?
XLT Tremors had halogen headlights. Lariat Tremors had LED. Headlights were trim dependent not Tremor package dependent.

Here’s the 2023 buyers guide option for the Tremor package.

Steve, you should call the salesman Jacob tomorrow and say this is Dave's friend the one he told you about that was looking for a Tremor. Then when he tells you it's an option send him this and see what his excuse is now. haha

i think it'd be just as hilarious to be brutally honest.

"you see sir, i'm part of a ford ranger forum where we try to stay on topic while also laughing at other people's mistakes. somehow you've found yourself in both of those categories and the thread is currently hotter than a 10R80's transmission fluid on a mid july day."

They've taken the page offline for now, so maybe they're re-writing the listing in anticipation of a bunch of us playing quality control.
So how many people from here contacted them then? lol What seriously bothers me though is that the tech during the used car inspection AND the sales team didn't notice the wheel. I can't blame them for missing the switches since it seemed to be a random used car dealer perhaps?

Really, the photographer even took a picture of the wheel and they didn't say anything? Reminds me of the time I did a PDI on a new ~2004 Mercedes C-coupe and the passenger seat had a cloth seat when the rest was leather. Cloth wasn't even a USA option lol

My 21 came with the switches.
And to this day, I've never used them 😄

Girlfriend likes to flip them on to make sure they still work since I've never used them.

It isn't noted on the window sticker. Unless the VIN tag was swapped....

If Ford had run out of the switches they would have noted it just like they noted the missing hotspot on the truck.

Dude probably curbed a wheel and bought a replacement and removed the switches....

Gotta remember, most people don't give a damn about their cars, they just buy something they think is cool, trash it, then trade it on something else.

It is though. At first I thought being that there is no price to the side, it wasn't included. But the tires, TCS, wheels and Fox shocks are the same.

If they were, I wasn't given the option the get them lol.
Answering my own dumb statement. 🤪

Because I didn't get a Tremor, even if they were an option. :rolleyes:
