2019 Ranger XLT
Traded 2009 JK with ~190,000 miles for a 2019 FX4 XLT Ranger. The 3.8L was a ticking time bomb and I wanted more towing capabilities.

2015 Focus ST3- recaro's, the whole 9 yards... traded it in for the ranger june 2020 after 78k care-free miles. Loved it. Beat the tar out of it on the last drive to the dealer to give her a well-deserved send-off.

Needed towing capability and gear space for all my outdoor activities - skiing, fishing, shooting etc

2019 Ranger
We have been a Jeep family for the most part except for my 250 Truck which after 15 years is still going strong.
I ended up trading in my Jeep Trailhawk for the 2022 Ranger.

I’ve owned GM cars, trucks since 1961. Bought Ranger as I liked the size, etc. Kept my one owner, PERFECT Silverado. It began to gather dust in the third stall, so like a nut, I sold it. But, after 24K, Ranger doing all I want, except replacing memories with my four grandchildren . One was talking about his red truck memories yesterday! Boo, WHoooo. Sniff, sniff!!

2019 Ford Ranger STX FX4 the black beast
I traded in my 2014 Subaru, bought that new and it burned oil and had valve float issues. Dealer claimed all that was "normal for a boxer motor". So with 20k miles on it traded in for my Ranger and it gets the same mpg. Never going back to Subaru ever again and never going to any thing not a truck again.
Funny, I had a 2014 Forester that burned oil; I ended up getting a new short block at 30k miles...that one didn't burn any oil but probably because I used Redline full synthetic 5W30 from the get go...part of the issue with 2014's was the panther piss they used for oil (0W20), that in combination with cheap rings ended up costing Subaru a lot of $$. I got 7 years and 77k miles out of mine before trade in
