I had a 99 B4000...

Yeah Buddy. the B models are almost exactly the same. If not a tad bit better. You had the 4.0l which had the options to mod over the 3.0L. The 2.5l was the modded hellion though.

Hello Everyone, Just traded my 22’ Maverick Lariat hybrid for a 20’ Ranger XLT with black appearance pkg, towing pkg and technology pkg. with 15k miles and 1 previous owner.

Maverick had too many recalls and issues for me to go on with. The main issue was having both axles replaced twice. They use the same axles for replacements so I didn’t trust it to be a permanent fix.

I needed better towing capacity because we are selling our tear drop camper for a bigger one but didn’t need a full size truck. I had a 2006 F150 and sold it once I ordered the Maverick.

The only thing I will miss is the amazing gas mileage.

Cheers bro, I just got a 22 XLT Tremor and I couldn't be happier. There is some much you can do with that Truck. The Maverick Turbo AWD, I think has some potential as the 21 century Cyclone Killer from 93. But they just can't compare to the Ranger Mod stack and capability atm.

Hey Everyone! I've been lurking around this site for the past week or two looking for lots of advice. You all have helped me so much and don't even know it.

I bought a 2WD 2023 Ranger Lariat SuperCrew just over a year ago. I love everything about it, fantastic truck all around! I test drove all the other pickups, and found the driving experience on this one to be the most enjoyable. However, I can't help but modify. My friend owns a shop and does SEMA builds. I have done a lot of free work photo/video wise for him over the years and he is rewarding me with a build. Although my truck is 2WD, I just love the look of a lift with big wheels. Feel free to roast me for this, I can take it. Here is what I have so far. Any other tips/advice would be greatly appreciated.

• Suspension: BDS 6” Lift Kit. (cast Steel knuckle type) with Fox 2.0 Performance rear shocks
• Wheels: Icon Alloys Compression 17x8.5
• Tires: Falken Rubitrek 285/70.17
• Running Board: N-FAB LENGTH PODIUM STEPS or TYGER Star Armor
• Fender Flares: Rough Country Pocket Fender Flares
• Wrap: Matt dark green almost gray/black with green accents
• Roof Rack: KCL92242 - 2019-2022 FORD RANGER KC HILITES M-RACKS WITH GRAVITY LED LIGHTS
• Front Bumper: JCR Ranger Front Bumper | Crusader | 4th Gen (19-23)
• Tow Hooks, color matched (green)

I wish I could document everything done for this, but he's going to be working on it while I am away on a work trip. There will definitely be before and after photos. I threw in a couple of AI generated photos that I used for motivation.

Found a 21' Ranger with 5k miles. Previous vehicle was a built out sprinter pop top. Plan is to keep it simple (famous last words). So far just some small cosmetic stuff and 5100s w/ 2.5" on the front. Wheels/tires eventually.

Hello to the group, I'm Craig. I finally have some photos to introduce myself. Drove the new Lariat Tremor from Florida to Idaho. Now testing its abilities in Idaho, so far I'm impressed. I see this forum costing me me a lot of money as I see so many great ideas and builds on here.

Yeah I said the same thing. Just the Tip. Now I am deep deep. Running E30 mix tuned, Exhaust, Intake, Charge Pipes. For now. The little Bastard has a lot in reserve when you start bolting on Mods. Welcome to Wallet party. Feels like the bill after the wedding. Except the hangover.
