My 2023 Ranger XLT Supercab 4x4 arrived last week!

XPlan pricing, work for a supplier.

Wanted the smaller extended (supercab); much prefer how it looks overall.

Factory ordered 11/19/22
Built 2/8/23
Delivered Dealer 2/17/23
Picked Up 2/21/23

Iconic Silver over Ebony Cloth
FX4, Locking Diff, 302a, Tow Package, Sport Package

First FORD ever.

Already got a tailgate damper, changed Ford emblems to black, center console organizer, and FX4 emblems from "blackout" package. Had dealer flip white lettered tires to inside.

Will probably Line-X and maybe do Lariat side mirrors with the built-in turn signals.

Nope...Iconic Silver IS the best...
Look at where "Iconic" derives from, the word Icon !!! Icon means something that is widely admired, or having great influence, or, something of great significance.
"Red just means Red", along with all the other "flashy, here today, gone tomorrow colors.
Silver, and Iconic Silver will be here LOOOOOOONG after those other "has been" or "limited edition" colors are extinct. :crackup::muscle::handsinair:

Never Ever said Soupie was ugly....it's a Ranger, so it can't be ugly !!!
Just said it's Red and not Iconic Silver !!! :giggle:
Tell mom that I said Soupie is a good looking, rugged looking Ranger, what with his steelies and black out trim, but it's Red !!!
