New Members Introduce Yourself!

Two months old. Only put 1000 miles on it so far but really like it! Coming from several Colorados. I think this drives a little nicer. I usually go traditional with the color but glad I went with the cactus gray.

Welcome, Bill! Great color!

Hi all,

Waiting on my order of a 2023 Ranger XL FX4 in Shadow Black. Living in the UK, so I hope my 'yank tank' doesnt draw too much attention from the petty youths.

Looking forward to learning from you all. So far I have found it is nigh on impossible to get anyone to ship side steps to APO boxes, so now I need to figure out if my XL is close enough to any of the British models with respect to holes for steps.

It's going to be a blast!!

Just a quick intro! Been lurking here and now might take home this nice 2019 FX4. Crossing fingers

Picked up my new ranger back on 8/8/23 and absolutely loving it so far (picture below). I Originally ordered an XL that I waited 7 months for just for it to get damaged in transit when it was sent to the dealership. Next day I went to the dealer and picked up this XLT, FX4, with tech pack and a few other additions I'm forgetting now.

Anyway, I already took the running boards off, sending it for undercoating next week, planning to buy the bed lighting kit with the Ford pass points I'll get from the purchase.

Some questions I have (and will also post on the appropriate threads)

1. I have lane keep and adaptive cruise, is it possible to get lane centering through forscan or something? I'm assuming the hardware is all the same and it's a software need.

2. Has anyone tried converting the window switches for the passenger windows to an auto switch like the drivers window? Is it as easy and changing out to the 2-stage auto switch on the driver's door switch board?

Nice, Black Appearance Package (18" wheels, body matched wheel well trim and bumpers, running boards, spray in bed liner, door sill plates and black Ford badges) with Tech package is a really nice place to ride.

welcome to r5g! Good to see more folks from Texas. I like those steel wheels makes the ranger look tougher.

Welcome Michael - nice 2WD but that’s a SuperCrew not a SuperCab. Just sayin’

good call thank you..yes my SuperCrew...I will now crawl back under my rock to research suspensions

Welcome. I recommend getting a grill insert to fill the gap under your bumper. I have a MontainstoMetal on mine. First week I had it caught a rather large bird with it. Probably/could have damaged the inter cooler.

Is this where I introduce myself? If not, tell me where to post.
just bought a 2019 lariat with 30k. Got a bumper to bumper till 2028 or 100k.

bought a 2005 ranger in 2012 so it was time to upgrade. Besides in need more towing ability.

I am looking for a used or second cab high topper. seem they are hard to find. Plus you have to repaint. Any suggestion?

plan to research here:

brake controler. Should I buy fords or other? How to wire?

wiring the third brake light for the topper.

any and all secrets for this truck.

I am very mechanical and do all my own work. (Was a pro wrench turner for 10 years)

great to have this forum!
