2019 Ranger (rebuilt ) I bought 4 years ago and recently completed. Replaced front bumper with a Westin (modified) to reduce rebuild cost. Three piece as packaged Westin fully mig welded with added brush bar from a cut down Kia kit I got for 40.00 CDN. Lights bla bla bla. Westin kit terrible fuel economy with the amount of air passing under the truck with no dam @ 22.3 mpg. New mpg 27.66 mpg, beating the new Tacoma and new Ranger by 1.3 mpg Tacoma and 1.6 mpg on the new Ranger. 2019 Ranger. Also in my rebuild of the truck is a 1.5" front leveling kit. A real skid plate is a great selling feature but in today's high fuel costs I'm going with this. Still have 13" of ground clearance with the leveling kit.
