Equipped with nav. and technology package it is all i need in a truck that will fit in my garage.

Good choice! I'm currently trying to help my dad find a 2019-20 used Ranger 2WD extended cab, but they're like finding hen's teeth in this crazy current used car market. He'd probably be happy with an XL but I'd hope he'd at least go for the XLT to make it more marketable down the road. My favorite thing is they all have the same engine/transmission combo no matter what configuration you go with, so the performance doesn't suffer even if you go basic on the trim. His last midsize Toyota truck lasted him 26 years so it's tough to find something in this class to take its place.
@EmperorFoxx

For sure! Those older Toyota trucks are amazing and I’m sure the newer ones are fine as well, it’s just that the new tacos are a little small in the cabin for me.

We just bought a new one as well, wife found her 2018 to big to park but Ioved it, the back seating is its downfall, they don’t lay down flat enough plus when the seats come forward they just get in the way of putting anything back there.

I agree the back seats could have used more work and options for sure! And that's a fair complaint about the price, you can get a mid trim full size for that price, but it's just priced competitively with other mid sized trucks. Although it's XL trim 4x2 is one of the cheapest in the segment and it has the same powertrain which is pretty good. Some people just like their trucks bigger for that price. To each their own.

The point is, I pretty much nixed the new Ford Ranger from my list out of the gate when I was truck shopping last summer. Reason? No V-6; I would have at least expected 28 m.p.g. out of the Eco 2.3 four cylinder. That, and I swear that the new cabin is smaller than the previous generation when I tested it out a year earlier. It still is a nice looking truck however, and capable, but I just don't think that the small four-banger is going to hold its own versus a large six cylinder motor, especially from a longevity standpoint.

But they all are going this route…have no choice if they want to do business in US. Heck, most have that engine shut off at the light BS that just gives the companies carbon credits at our expense.

@@EmperorFoxx it’s actually related to the engine being a GDI, not turbo. There are acceptable percentages, but a lot of the 2019 Ranger engines have been in the problem zone causing early oil dilution.

I didn't feel the lariat was worth the price difference. I just bought one last week and said no to the lariat . Not much of a difference besides the key and a few cosmetic options.

Agreed. The only thing that the lariat has that I wanted was the LED headlights. Just not worth the extra cost.

I have a 2020 black Ranger XLT. You said you put decals over the Ford badges on the grill and tailgate. Looks amazing. Are the decals durable? If so, where can I get a couple of them?

Yeah they are super durable. Went through an automatic wash many times and had no issues. I got them on Etsy for pretty cheap.

@@EmperorFoxx Thanks for the tip. I installed my decals a couple days ago and they look great! Definitely required a lot of patience. I also got a set of stainless black platinum letter inserts for the tailgate RANGER stamp and installed those today. They look amazing. They would be perfect on your truck with that magnetic metallic/gray color.

I was looking at the fords, decided to go with the tacoma though. Its going to be a truck I own and go offroad with for the next 10 years or more. I didnt want to have any potential problems. Who knows if I would have had any or not. Im happy ford is bringing in some good competition for mid sized trucks. And ultimately competition is great for us consumers in the long run.

What made you choose the Ranger over the Ridgeline? I am on the fence between Ranger, Ridgeline, or F-150 and just curious what made you choose the Ranger. Thanks in advance! Great video and very nice looking truck!
@EmperorFoxx

More flexibility with mods and more truck like feel when driving it. Plus the Ranger's powertrain is by far my most favorite powertrain I have driven, especially in a truck. The Ridgeline is more refined on the road for sure and is a more comfortable ride, and honestly you can't go wrong with it. Good luck on the new truck purchase!

Drive them both, I'd say. The Ridgeline is much more refined on the road with great handling, a great commuter truck. The Ranger is more of a old school feel to the handling, but oddly quick. It also has a much larger after market and ford accessory support than the Ridgeline.
