Look on the instrument panel above the steering wheel..... that's where the gear selection indicator is.

Looking at the floor while driving is, well, not a great idea.

They removed them, maybe after 2019

My 2019 doesn't have illuminated gear numbers at the shifter.

Be happy... the gear selection is on the dash, where it's easily seen. Logical, and proportional.

My 2019 lit up. I think when they when stopped putting the Ecoboost emblems on the tailgate they discontinued the back lighted shifter as well. Penny pinching by Ford.

Do the lariats or fx4 not come with the eco boost logo? My lariat fx4 doesn’t have it anywhere, but most other rangers I see round town do

My '20 lariat doesn't light up, at least I'm pretty sure it doesn't. Also no ecoboost badge.
