New member - in the market for a Ranger

I have heated seats on my '21 XLT 4X4 Sport. I don't know if the seats heat because it's a Sport or because of the 302A package.
I do know the seats get HOT, though. Feels good on old bones in the wintertime.

Be sure to inspect 2022 trucks and certain 2023 trucks for deleted heated seats. My 2022 had them deleted at the factory due to lack of parts and I received a puny $500 credit for it at purchase. Not a big deal if you look at my location, hah.

Oh it feels good in the summertime too! ?

When I was in AZ I would use my heated seats just about all year long. After working all day it felt great on my back driving home until the temps reached 110+, they're like a built in heating pad.? That's one option I have become spoiled with and don't think I could get another vehicle that doesn't have them. lol

Indeed!

Thanks for the warm welcome. I'll keep you posted on my progress. I did see a Supercrew today, but it didn't have FX4.

On some of the search sites, you can pick packages that narrow down the search. The risk is, the dealer put in the wrong info. I've seen XLT's listed as Lariats, and vice versa. Garbage in, garbage out. You should learn to recognize what each package contains, what they look like in pictures, and what any independent options look like.

I'll give you an example. The 501A package contains the B&O audio. This shows up in the pictures as a silver circle in the door speakers. If they're all black, no 501A. However, the Technology Package (BLIS, adaptive cruise, etc.) is available independently without the 501A. This is hard to determine without the sticker.

Another example is the electronic locking differential. It's available independently, not just as part of the FX4 package. But the set of drive buttons on the console will tell you if it's there or not. If it has the diff, the 4-wheel logo will be there. Same goes for the auto start-stop delete. If it's been deleted at the factory, the button wont be there.

Not every dealer uses Carfax, which includes the window sticker. AutoCheck won't tell you. IFax may or may not.
