This turbo is really fun. Now does anyone have a Bedrug? Thinking of getting it vs the rhyno liner. Also any tire recs on 18s?
The lariat is good for a few things...the sound system is solid BnO system...has tons of base. Only trim with push button start. Leather seats. The only trim where center back window slides for truck access.
Got the sport appearance so that the bumper (steel) is painted same as body. And grill the same.
This ride is peppy and rides as high as a 150. Not your daddys Ranger. Everyone who sees it says it looks great. The shape is what sold me.
There are several online venders for the bed rug. I have one in my new Ranger. Follow the instructions and after you have mounted all the Velcro strips be sure to turn the liner upside down and zip the 3 pieces together then drop the liner in the bed.
That's the same color I keep building only an XLT, with the appearance package, and the Raptor clone wheels. Good looking truck. ,
I got looking over one this week, and noticed hardly any clearance between the steering knuckle and the tire sidewall, so I wouldn't go any wider with the OEM wheel. That's too bad, those are nice wheels.
FYI- I have had my Bedrug since 2006...and I have carried everything from lumber, concrete, car parts, steel, etc in it and it still looks as good as the day I bought it...the bed remains in excellent condition! very easy to maintain as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice truck! I've messed around with Ford's Build/Price several times and I like the looks of a Magnetic Gray XLT w/ Chrome package. Makes for a nice, classy lookin' truck. That or a Magnetic STX with the blacked out trim makes for a more aggressive look at a cheaper price! But truth be told, if Ford offered any kind of dark green on this I'd be all over that!
Yes, the front is a little higher, I have a 1.5" leveling spacer in the front, I got it from overseas, but wouldn't recommend it unless you have access to machining tools. You see this is a strut top spacer and the Australian/Asian Ranger has a bit smaller center on the strut so I had to machine it out a bit to fit. Anyway, lots of 2" and up available now here now. I was doing this before most of the kits were out here and I just wanted a very slight level and to keep some of the rake so it wasnt low in the rear when towing or with a load.
Im likely going to run these tires for the summer and get new, slightly larger 265/65/18, ones in the fall, right now Im looking at the Falken wildpeaks or possibly Toyo Open Country AT II. Ive run many sets of BFG ATs and am looking for something different.

my eyes arent what they used to be but i dont see any rake at at all. anything more than a bag of groceries and i think youll be sagging in the rear
@OntSCrew What do you plan on doing with wheels? Somehow you're going to have to get some different offset to run those 265. With those stock wheels, I couldn't get my fingers between the sidewall and steering knuckle.

You,re right, your eyes are not that good, lots of rake left, you need the 3" kit to totally level it and I only have 1.5" . I have had my motorbike in the back with no sag and towed a trailer with the same results, still *** end high.

It came with 265/60/18s so Im only going up a bit, its just over an inch taller and the same width, so I should be fine with the stockers. But ya, its tight in there.
