Nice Clean looking truck!
But you have to do something about the Utility company look, when ever I see a White Ranger I think Spectrum is here to shut off my internet
Custom side steps, a Lift and bigger tires, Grill, off road and ditch lights.

Buy a powertrain warranty!
...about the only thing that breaks on those rangers is the transmissions and it will cost you thousands out of pocket
If it was built before August 15th you should. After that the problem is supposed to be fixed.

True but I'd still consider buying one just for the peace of mind. I wouldn't don't trust that the transmission is 100% fixed and will be trouble free with the new drum. There's obviously more than that that can fail but like any insurance you buy you're taking a gamble it'll pay off. I've never even considered one until I bought my '19 Ranger and wouldn't purchase a new vehicle now without getting one. At least now there's a few dealers where you can get them just over their costs so that helps take the sting of of buying one.

True. Everyone's situation is different. I only drive 8 to 9000 miles a year. I put some money away in a savings account when I bought it. So much going on in new vehicles. Every month I throw another $100 in. The odds of major repairs is low enough that I will take a chance on it. Hard to say which is better for me and my crystal ball is still in the shop. If it goes my way, I have a good down payment on the next one.

Again, congrats. And be careful here. These guys will make you go broke.
How'd you get leather seats in an XLT?
Hard work and some time.

The dealer ship has leather katzkins seat covers professionally installed the dealer is Allstar Ford of Prairieville they were great with the leather it really helps. The seats are fitted perfectly and I didn’t have to do a thing and it looks like a lariat.

The aftermarket leather I've seen is actually better quality than the OEM leather.
