The integrated bed steps are the single thing on the new Ranger that I am extremely envious of.

They make a much bigger difference in bed access than you would ever think.

Yes! I use them.......a lot! I can say the things that bug me the most are the caps that leak a lot on the bed rail caps, silicone has fixed the problem, the stupid rpm guage, and eletronic dash. I like the old analog dials. Other than that, i dont see me trading this truck in. Drive it till the transmission goes kaboom ?

Dont just put the tunno cover on and expect waterproof! The plastic caps leak like a cheap diaper. This video is reallg good on how to cover them up. To add from my experience, do use silicon or whatever you want to seal the caps for bolt downs. Thats where they leak. I did mine from the outside. Works, but looks awful! Do it from the inside! You can put lots on and have it look functional and no one will know. I did not want to take mine back off as it would break the clips i had broken once already. I epoxied them back on. But this is the worst bed cap ever of all time.

I actually like the new digital displays, but mine is significantly different than that one. Much wider, more customizable, and a lot of good information, including integration with Android Auto Turn by Turn so it shows the upcoming turns and distance in the dash. wasn't expecting that for Android Auto.

The digital display can show a lot of info. Boost, transmission temp, oil temp, oil pressure, trailer light status, brake controller gain, turn by turn directions, a lot of customizable info like the op said.
I just still hang out here because this is a good forum and the 6g is just not like this one.
Lots of mods for 6g but mostly with overseas options. Just not here yet. The forum is.....just quieter, and with so many people from all over the world, its just hard to get a straight answer on a mod or problem with every country having its own version of the vehicle.
The same but different. I live near mexico, and they have different tailgates on the ranger. At least the steering wheel is on the left side.
