Hello from the Sunny Okanagan BC.
This is my first mid-sized truck, been an F150 guy for years. I love my Ranger. It's the first vehicle I've owned that I've upgraded/customized. Everything else was bought stock, driven stock and sold stock.

Upgrades so far:
Tires and wheels (stock size for now, 285/70-17s on order)
Ford Performance Fox 2.0 suspension
Ford Performance tune
ARB Summit bumper - Line-X coated
Full body Line-X coating- Midnight Blue Metallic fade to black

Still to come:
BD fogs for bumper - on order
BD ditch lights - on order
Warn Zeon - on order
ARB rear bumper
Etc.....

Welcome Gary - I’ve spent a lot of time in that area, from Silver Star to Osoyoos and all places in between. Lived in Kelowna for a year - great place to own a modified Ranger!

Now, let’s talk about those front crash bars. They gotta go - seriously, they do.

I mean, I love your truck but no Ranger should have overgrown ear hair.

Hello all,

FINALLY got mine last night after 20 weeks. I guess in the end I'm not as patient as I thought.

Anyhow, my daily driver and used for tailgating at UM football. Super happy with it and how it turned out. I basically ordered it using the information/reviews on the forum as I was deciding between this and a taco. I wasn't able to find either truck to even sit in or take a test drive which was crazy at the time and probably still is in certain areas of the country.

Needless to say, I got the damper (lol) and where the hell is the heated steering wheel? Heated seats, navigation, and power folding mirrors but no heated steering wheel, what the hell! No big deal but just surprised. Who came up with that?

That blacked out look is awesome. Almost as nice as cactus grey ;)

It's on the list. I promise.
I had the bumper installed and realized I couldn't get the bolts out. So I'll either cut them when the new tires arrive or unbolt them when the winch arrives (easiest to mount the winch with bumper dropped). So, plucked or trimmed they will be gone.

I’ll be watching and taking notes. Enjoy all those logging roads and abandoned mines out your way!

Oh man, the back order sucks! No, I haven’t seen it but I’d like to - you should drop the link into your signature. ?

2021 Ranger Lariat
2021 Ranger Lariat Extended Cab. Second Ranger5G, first was a 2019 Crew Cab XLT. Traded up cuz I wanted the 6ft bed. Added a few small things, including a LineX liner, Bed Mat (thanks Ford!!), bed swing boxes and an ARE shell. Running LT275/65/18's, which are maybe just a tad too big, so this weekend we're gonna tweak the suspension just a bit.
