This is an underwhelming design

I rode an F-150 previously but no longer wanted the size. Visually, the new Ranger is a stunner. But the upgraded Trim package is not worth it. It is very overpriced for the tech on the vehicle, cheap feeling, and too uncomfortable to be a decent work truck.

I test drove every midsize truck and looked at each one very thoroughly. They all definitely have positives and negatives, not one really having it all. Based on looks, the Ranger has to be the worst looking truck. Isn’t that an important attribute not spoken about.? Yes, subjective but it really is. Front end looks like an SUV, not a truck. I ended up buying the 2024 GMC Canyon Elevation. Strong engine, smooth ride, and more upscale cabin above the Ranger and Chevy and easily the best looks with its rugged stance and comes with a sunroof option. I couldn’t also get past the Ranger XLT which has no heated mirrors and a goofy vertical infotainment screen. I’ve been very happy with my choice.

got the barebones xl truck 4x4 with tow pk for 37k. was a toyota guy but the taco was to cramped and bad visibility. the Colorado bed was too small. surprisingly the ford service has really been great. handles well and decent power, very quite on the highway. if I could go back in time I would have ordered it with the rear locker, a cool feature that the base comes with--shout out to the ford team for that. I've taken it down really deep sandy beaches and beat on it, never stuck once and floats over the sand. my complaints: the headrest in the xl is the worst, it curves your body forward like a cheap airplane seat, I will replace it. the xl steering wheel is slippery but a quick 30 dollar amazon purchase fixed it. door needs a little slamming to close. I understand this is the cheap model but not having a paper manual and no mirror in the sun visor is just plain bs. its 2 dollar to put a cheap mirror in the sunvisor ford I mean really, the physical key can be annoying offroad when all your keys are smashing your leg constantly and jingling like Santa's sled but I guess most people won't offroad this thing like that all the time like I do. for the stock stereo its pretty good. no issues at all, tranny is super smooth like butter unless its cold and its first few shifts.

Too much Tech

I have had my truck a month and I love it as a truck. I DISPISE the relationships it has with my phone. I get in and want the radio, nope the truck decides to turn a phone app on and play something you turned off 4 days ago. The screen is too big and too bright at lowest settings at night. Also the placement of the light switch is horable. I have to bring my head below the dashboard while driving to find the light switch. Other than that I love the truck. Would be better with just a radio.
