I like those vw things. The owner of a Local cheesesteak joint has one with his logo on it. He’s logo is orange and black, so it matches perfect with the original orange you see on a lot of those.

I don't see many New Rangers that aren't gray or red. This is pretty much what my Ranger would look like if I had the 40k, without the silly wheel well gaps. My Boss has a Red one very similar. Boss has an XL STX.
This one has STX on the Fender vent and a bedside decal. Anybody know what that means?

It means the owner is over 30... thinks Mustangs should be 2 door sports cars... voted Republican... and listens to country music.

But that's just a guess...

The fact he/she voted republican is all that counts. The rest is just fluff

Its probably better to be self deprecating than self defecating.

I got the same vents & sticker? 🤷‍♀️ idk what you mean by 'does anyone know what this means' lol... it means it's an STX 😋

Isn't the STX package only offered on XL trucks? Marketed at folks who can't afford an xlt or a lariat.. but still want to feel like they have something fancy.

Pretty sure all the STX package consists of on the new trucks is the sticker, foglights, and 'carbon black' bumpers rather than chrome.

Almost dead on.


I cant/dont vote for people though.

Can't willingly go support an individual I don't in any reality truly support.

One side wants to stick a hot poker up your butt.. the other side wants to cut your nipples off.. I'll pass on both.

In my town of 3,000 people, I've seen three. There's a red one (haven't seen it in a while), a black one (haven't seen it in a while, either, I think it was the first one I saw, right when the new Rangers came out), and a copper coloured one that I see all the time. Oh, my local dealer has a white 2019, and a black 2022.

It means they didn't get another package to override the STX sticker on the bed. My XL STX is an FX4, so has FX4 on the bed but STX on the fender vent.

It's not a 4wd so they probably voted Democrat
