2019 XLT

Back in late 2015, I picked up a '95 Ranger ext. Cab with the 5 speed 3L V6 in conjunction with the 03 miata I had. The gauges didn't work so I bought a bluetooth module and used my phone as the entire gauge cluster. I swapped in leather mustang seats as they used the same seat rail. I went on an 18 hour road trip and didn't encounter a single issue except for two blowouts within 5 miles of each other (glad I had two spares). I went offroading in it all the time. It was a blast for the six months I had it. In May of 2016, I sold both to get a six speed Infiniti G37 sedan. On Wednesday, I went and picked up this. It's a 2019 XLT with the 301, 302, tech, towing and chrome package in the color I wanted. It was a demo car so the warranty started at a little over 3700 miles, plus a little cheaper even with all the rebates going on. I don't care about some of the tech features it has, but I was genuinely impressed overall on the drive. I was considering leasing a Gladiator and liked the drive, but they kept pushing me into the higher trim levels that were way more than I wanted to spend.
So yep, here I am. I'm 24, lived in Houston my whole life, the truck was built two days before my birthday and I coincidentally bought it on the 21st anniversary of moving into the house I grew up in. I'm on my own now. Glad to be back.

2019 Lariat SuperCrew Ranger in Shadow Black
Occupation
Tax CPA
Finally joined the club yesterday. Bought a 2019 Shadow Black Lariat with 501a, Black appearance, FX4 and trailer tow packages. Did not bring it home yet since I am having them do some things to the truck before I bring it home. If anyone is interested in the 18ā€ black appearance wheels with 265/60/18 Hankook Dynapro At-M send me a message since I will be listing them. They are brand new and will have no miles on them except the delivery miles. Located in Lakeland Florida.

2019 ford ranger
Happy to announce I am going to be in the club. I am buying a 2019 Ford Ranger XLT 4x4 Sport Supercrew with 200 miles from my uncles estate for 22k. Couldnt pass up the deal. Ive only seen it once in his driveway when I was helping clean up. Im not even sure what options it has but hoping for bed liner and tow pkg. Its gun metal grey and I am driving over xmas break and picking it up this week. I will post some pics then. I am dumping my 2014 Ram 1500 Ecodiesel. I cant even find someone to take it off my hands with the emissions issues it is a ticking time bomb nightmare. I might have to carmax it and eat crow. I will miss the full size but I am hoping the ranger is big enough yet nimble and more than capable without the headaches.

Hey all, been here for about 6 months but never introduced myself. I bought a '19 4x4 magnetic XLT 300a with tow package and spray-in liner. Loving it so far! First time truck owner so still learning the groove. Traded in my 2012 hatchback Kia forte. Always been a Ford guy. Owned a focus before this and currently have a '67 mustang. Only grip: 4inch screen with no Android auto and Apple car play! Other than that, love it!

Whats up everyone. I'm Connor and I just got a 19 ranger. Interested in doing some mods right away so if any of y'all can help me that would be great. First thing I was thinking is exhaust tip but I want the tip to look good and make the truck louder. any suggestions?

I traded in my 17' Colorado Z71 in on a 19' Ranger XLT Monday of this week. Loved my Colorado. I drive a ton a miles per year and healthy $9,500 in Ford rebates and all the safety features with the Ranger convinced me to make a change. Looking forward to enjoying my new ride. G.B.

Hello everyone! Excited to announce I have joined the Ford Ranger club! I just bought this truck two weeks ago - it is my first truck ever. I got the 2019 XLT trim. As a bonus, it came with running boards and Linex spray in the bed. Love the truck so far!

Hi everyone, Iā€™m Shane, Iā€™m new to the forum, my first truck, so Iā€™m having fun with it... been lurking for a while, and seeing whatā€™s working and what isnā€™t, mostly suspension wise, itā€™s my first truck. Iā€™m a VW/Audi guy, I love turbos.. traded in the Jeep for this, so Iā€™m having fun with something different.. upgrades are 5 star tuning 93 performance, Turbosmart VTA, AFE intake, inter cooler tubes, and down pipe, Ford Motorsport 2ā€ leveling kit and Ford Performance chase rack, Ranger Raptor wheels, BF Goodrich 285/70 17ā€™s, front crash bar removed, Raptor grille and Raptor white lights...

2019 Ford Ranger Lariat
HI all!

I purchased a 2019 Ranger Lariat on Dec. 17th and could not be happier with my purchase, honestly, I did not expect to like Ranger as much as I do and in fact I have recommended the Ranger to two friends who are also in the market for a mid-size truck/SUV.

Looking forward to using this vehicle for many years to come.

Great looking Ranger! Nice job! I too was an Audi guy. Had an ā€˜02 allroad for 17 years before my Ranger. The bi-turbos were still going strong.... I just needed the utility of a truck.

Joined 5G a while back, and just picked up my HPR XLT on the 23rd of Dec. Great Christmas present. What made me downgrade from the Lariat I wanted was the $6100 rebate. Adn I had to act becasue the HPR were disappearing, and the new red 2020's were already showing up. So far I'm happy with it. Now to sell my 2004. Getting a bedliner sprayed in 2 weeks, thinking of a lift. I put a Borla catback on my 93, and MBRP on the 04 white, but they were both V6's. Not sure of the sound of the 2.3 4 cyl. I had the engine in my 2016 Mustang and it had more HP but I was afraid to change the exhaust because I thought the sound would be too tinny. We'll see.
