Looking to mod my new daily driver.

Added Ford performance fox 2.0, raptor wheels, Ko2 tires, Ford performance exhaust and raptor grill.


on the way bora 1.25 spacers, K&N cai just released a few weeks ago went with that over roush, pedal commander.

Next on list downpipe, intercooler with charge pipes waiting on mishimoto dyno results before I preorder, turbo smart valve, BBK 2.3 throttle body waiting on confirmation if it’ll fit ranger. After that will dyno then adding livernois tuning found out they wrote the Ford performance tune.

Have a machine fabrication shop custom make me a roll bar. Will post when done. Gonna resemble the roush chase rack w/grab handles and mounts for light also will be compatible with bed cover.

Welcome Tony, beautiful Ranger. Go big, or go home, right bud.

Neil here, my 2003 T-bird was dying so, a Ford Rangers was next logical step. 2020 xlt, sport with tech and tow package just installed an undercover ultraflex top. Will post a pic soon.

Very nice. What do you think on the K&N CAI? Looks similar to the others on the market and about the same price. What made you decide on that one?

Hey I struggled going back and forth but after reading that mishimoto only advertises up to 6hp gain, roush is 8 tq no hp gain and K&N is 14hp and when I called their office they said tq was 16 so I decided to go with K&N bc of that and their reputation. When I install I will do dyno and let you know.

Outstanding, thanks for the feedback. They don’t give any Dyno info on their website.
I’ll be curious what you find out.
Is that your only engine/exhaust mod?

Yw. I added a tune for my Audi, did exhaust work and new air filters, has 3.0 turbo 6 went from 340 hp & 380 tq to 415 hp 460tq. This ranger is my first engine mod. Goal is to have around 320ish hp. Do you have any mods on your?

Thank you for the info on the CAI.
Those are some impressive numbers.
I have an AWE cat back on my Ranger and while they are pricey I am very happy with the sound and slight increase in HP.
I have a 2017 Ford Fusion Sport with a 2.7 twin turbo V-6 with a Steeda CAI giving it about 340 hp and 390 ftlbtq.
Very fun car as it replaced a 2013 Focus ST that had numerous mods.

Good day folks!

May as well introduce myself. Bought a 2020 Scab XLT, FX4, 302A, towing pkg on the 21st. I was looking online but only a few scabs so I went to a dealer to see what he could find. $5k off so I we bought.
I've been reading this site for well over a year now & familiar with issues that pop up.
- Tires, well, I have the Hankook(3 peak/snow flake) & so far not too impressed.
- Gas millage - 18mpg so far, but at 400km I'll have to wait till I hit 1,500km to see'
the proper consumption.
- Gas in oil, need to check.
- Tire pressure - 38, truck says 38. Feels like a truck but quite soft.

This is part 1 of retirement plan, next is a trailer, smallest with a W/C in it. Then travel...

I love this truck. I had 2 other 90's Rangers but neither for long as the first got stolen(they found the culprits), the next I sold as I started working from home.
That was 20 yrs ago, so it's been a long time since I drove a rwd in the snow.

Great site, good group, lots of good info & thank you to all knowledgeable people
for your time.

Hello all, I’m new to this forum and this is my first post. I have been pretty much obsessed with the 5th Gen Ranger since it’s development phase before it was available in foreign markets, let alone NA market. My current daily driver is an ‘02 F-150 Lariat SuperCrew. It’s been a great truck but after almost 19 years, I’m ready for something new. I owned a ‘94 XLT supercab Ranger before the F-150 and loved that truck until I sold it. Those jump seats in the extended cab just wouldn’t cut it with child seats and that’s why I moved up to the F-150 to begin with. As nice as the F-150 are, they have grown too big and expensive and are more truck than I need or want. I love the current Ranger and especially with the Tremor package coming in 2021, but the lack of a SuperCrew with a long bed configuration (6’ bed) halts any future purchase. Hopefully the next gen will check all of my boxes?

With the Maverick slotting in below the Ranger, I could see the next gen gain an inch or two in a few dimensions to better split the difference between the Maverick and F-150. Who knows, maybe a SuperCrew with a long bed will be part of that plan? Ford is the only body on frame midsize lacking a crewcab/longbed configuration and I’m sure they are missing out on some of the market share because of this literal shortcoming. I know, because I’m one of those hold outs.

Greetings from Puerto Rico! Here's my 2020 XL. So far I've added KM3 BFG's, SofTopper, Mountain hatch tailgate insert, Westin winch tray, WARN winch and Fog lights.

Hello. I’m John Rogers. Live in North AL. Got a 2019 XLT Crew cab 2WD in the blue color. So far, I’ve only added the tailgate damper(here we go?). Had the truck about a year and it just rolled to 14k. Good truck overall. 2nd Ranger for me, first one was a 1994 Xtra cab 2WD. That one had the 4.0 with a manual transmission. Loved that truck. It was bulletproof. Hope this one is the same way!
