It’s mid-December and we don’t have much longer to wait until Rangers finally hit the road in early 2019. Ford may be fulfilling their preorders as soon as January, and we are in the final weeks to build and preorder a 2019 Ranger via Ford’s online configurator. Have you ordered your dream Ranger yet?

Here are the basics to choose from:

• Trim package: XL, XLT, or Lariat
• Cab configuration: SuperCab (6’ bed) or SuperCrew (5’ bed)
• Drive wheels: 4x2 or 4x4 (Is this even a question? Obviously 4x4)

Beyond that is when you can go as crazy as you would like with the options. From features like a block heater for those in colder climates (+$80) to a set of Ford’s own running boards (+$635), there is bound to be a few things that you’ll want to add. If you are anything like us though, these upgrades will be kept to only items that can come from the factory. We already have in mind the first upgrades we will be making to our Ranger.

Regardless of what you order, be sure to complete it before the end of the year to make sure you are in the first batch of 2019 Ranger’s delivered. Their trucks will hit the road early next year and believe us, you will want to be driving yours as soon as possible.
