Cool. I'll get one, lower it abut 6" and put some 60 series tires on that bad boy and have a "Pursuit" model

I was close to the end of the pictures looking for one thing from the Bronco platform that need to be in the Ranger too. I was about to give up and the vey last picture had what I was looking for....

Pre wired auxiliary switches. Hopefully they can be had ala cart on lower trim levels.

Not sure I would buy a Ranger Raptor... but it's nice to see that it looks like they took efforts to keep the Ranger on top of the Mid Sized Market.

I guess I was always looking to the next gen and didn't pay enough attention to the tremor. If they did put them in... good on them. It's something trucks have lacked.

I didn't ask for your life story, just answer the question!
Upfitter switches should be optional on every trim level.

I like it... I’ve never been a big fan of the current body style. I think this update is a major improvement. Hopefully the new truck market settles a little and I can get one. (I’ll pay MSRP... I refuse to pay a dealer markup.)

I'd like to see it in a 2dr version. I went through the pics and each time something wasn't sitting right with me. I think it was the 4drs. I was NEVER a fan of 4dr cars/trucks. I never owned one.

Really?!?! You like the ‘19-‘22 body style better than the ‘23?!?!

You need to go get a Covid test... you have no taste.
Well you are the one that likes the big black blob front end...

Is way nicer than this...

I mean, if you want a truck with a Focus nose on it than this is the truck for you. I prefer my truck to have a truck front end.

Says the guy that has a Ranger with a decked out foxbody nose...

There isn't much for pictures out of the new one but what there is has little definition, looks like there is no lights, nothing but black plastic.

Kinda strikes a similar nerve as the trail boss gm's...
