2019 Ford Ranger XLT
Hi everyone, my name is Ricky and I've got a 2019 Ranger XLT. Other than the fan harness issue, I love this truck and have plans to lower it as the stock height is kinda high imo

Pics of "Shadow" cause I forgot to include them initially.

The MKIV R32 was by all respects the BEST VW hatchback ever made. Yes, it was heavy. Yes, it got crappy gas mileage. But what a blast to drive.

I've owned seven VW's and three GTIs, including an '83 MK1, a 2009 MKV, and this is the 2018 MK7.5 Autobahn that I am selling to help pay for the Ranger. The list of mods is way too long for a Ford forum. Briefly, it's EQT Stage 1 ECU and TCU, and will embarrass much more powerful cars that laugh at it.

Nice!! I've had just a few more than that, something like 25 or 26 lol. Mostly Mk1's Mk2's Mk3's Mk4's. and one Mk7, I have a list somewhere lol. My Mk7 was a 2016 S 6spd with Euro only R-line Front bumper, Golf R side skirts and rear bumper, Euro Clubsport alcantara door panels, Euro sun visors, Euro headrest, Euro 8"media screen, dynamic tails, power fold mirrors, OEM accessories center exhaust, off the top of my head. I was getting ready to start powertrain mods then the R32 popped up, could pass it up.

What is the top speed of a WRX?


The Subaru WRX STI has a top speed of 174 mph. On the other hand, the Subaru WRX model can only reach speeds of 159 mph.Jan 11, 2023

2022 Ford Ranger Tremor
New (to me) '22 Ranger Tremor owner! Can't stop looking at it.

Adding some of the things I am trying to do immediately in case anyone has thoughts :
I have 2 medium/large dogs that I'd like to throw in the back seat area. Curious if anyone has photos/products that are helping them handle this. Right now I may just remove the back seat for short term but I don't want that to be the norm.
Need a bed liner. Probably looking at a spray-in but not 100% sure yet.

Hopefully I'll have some nice outdoor photos to share after my cabin/fishing trip at end of August. Itching to get some dirt on it.

Hi all, I’m a welder / fabricator/ designer who uses my Ranger to tow a welding rig. I totally love this truck and can see why others do too. I’m currently setting the truck up with some mods to make it the best modest work truck out there. Wish me luck!
