While you can't get the Tremor trim on XL, there are two other off-road packages: the FX2 Package for rear-wheel-drive Rangers, and the FX4 Package for four-wheel-drive Rangers. Both require you also get the STX Appearance Package, which includes 17-inch silver-painted aluminum wheels, premium black cloth seats, exposed front tow hooks, and fog lamps. The FX2 Package adds 4x2 "FX Off-Road" bodyside decal, 17- or 18-inch off-road OWL Tires, an electronic-locking rear differential, an off-road screen in the instrument cluster, and an off-road tuned suspension. The FX4 Package adds 4x4 "FX4 Off-Road" bodyside decal, 17- or 18-inch off-road OWL Tires, an electronic-locking rear differential, exposed steel bash pate, an off-road screen in the instrument cluster, an off-road tuned suspension, a terrain management system, Trail Control (basically, cruise control for off-roading), and skid plates for the fuel tank, transfer case and front differential.
Once you're buff enough to go off-road, you might to dress up your Ranger with a little chrome. There's an XL Chrome Package, which adds chrome bumpers with black tow hooks, fog lamps, and body-color wheel-lip moldings. On other trim levels, buyers also receive chrome door and tailgate handles, exhaust tip, bumpers, tow hooks, and grille. Lariats also get chrome mirror caps. Chrome running boards are available at extra cost.
 Don't like chrome? Consider the Sport Appearance Package, available on XLT and Lariats, gives you a different look with 17-inch magnetic painted aluminum wheels, black grille, exposed front tow hooks and Sport bed decal. Or you can choose a murdered-out look by opting for the Black Appearance Package, with 18-inch black sidewall tires with aluminum wheels, black grille with black surround, and black mirror caps, sill plates, lower front fascia, running boards and a body-color front bumper.Â
Definitely consider the Bed Utility Package with its plastic drop-in bedliner and a 12-volt power plug, although it's not available if you must have the pickup box extender, tonneau cover, spray-in bedliner, or the Black Appearance Package. OK, if that doesn't sound so tempting, you find the Technology Package more to your liking, as it adds adaptive cruise control, a forward sensing system, and navigation.
On XLs, the optional Equipment Group 101A adds cruise control, a day/night rearview mirror, anti-theft alarm, power side mirrors, remote key fob with tailgate lock and a six-speaker audio system with a 4.2-inch LCD display, Sync, a USB port, and 911 Assist.
Specific XL options include Ford Co-Pilot360, with auto-high beam headlamps, blind spot warning, cross-traffic alert, trailer tow monitoring, lane-keeping assist, pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, forward collision warning, dynamic brake support, and a rearview camera.Â
Freestanding XL options include a second-row seat delete on SuperCabs, carpet flooring with floor mats, an electronic-locking differential, an engine block heater, manual-sliding rear-window w/privacy glass and defroster, reverse sensing system, 110-volt outlet, and black running boards.Â
And of course, there are accessories, including a black aluminum crossbed toolbox by Weather Guard, tray style floor liner, keyless-entry keypad, splash guards, a spray-in bedliner, pickup box extender, and a tonneau bed cover.Â
Fleet buyers can opt for LED warning strobes, 17-inch painted aluminum wheels, exterior backup alarm, cruise control, and the Sync upgrade package with a 4.2-inch LCD display, Sync, a USB port, and 911 Assist.
They can also add the XL Power Equipment Group to get a perimeter alarm, power sideview mirrors, remote key fob, and a remote tailgate lock. Or they can skip the bed entirely by ordering the Ranger with a bed delete option.
Most buyers will find the XLT to be the ideal Ranger. It's a bit nicer than its less-expensive sibling, adding some of the XL's options as standard equipment. So, you'll also get standard 17-inch wheels, body-colored bumpers, cruise control, an overhead console, dual-zone electronic climate control, LED taillamps, anti-theft alarm, a reverse sensing system, remote keyless-entry with remote tailgate lock, power mirrors, SiriusXM Satellite Radio and a six-month prepaid subscription, and Sync 3 with an eight-inch LCD capacitive touchscreen, premium cloth seats, two USB ports, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto that can also have an optional voice-activated touchscreen navigation system. Ford Co-Pilot360, which is optional on the XL, is standard.
If that's not enough stuff for you, try adding optional Equipment Package 301A, which throws in an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a 110-volt outlet, leather-wrapped steering wheel and shifter, power-folding side mirrors and the Sport Appearance Package -Â if you don't also order the Chrome Appearance Package or the Black Appearance Package. Equipment Package 302A adds all of that plus eight-way power driver and passenger heated seats, manual-sliding rear-window and remote start. And of course you can add the Tremor Off-Road Package. There's also a Technology Package that adds adaptive cruise control, a forward sensing system, and navigation.
Freestanding XLT options mimic those on the XL, but also includes 18-inch chrome or machined-aluminum wheels.Â
Choose the Lariat, and you'll lasso one refined Ranger, with such indulgent touches as 18-inch machined aluminum wheels, chrome grille, power-folding heated side mirrors, leather-covered gearshift knob and steering wheel, leather-trimmed seats, heated front seats with power lumbar, LED headlamps, a reverse sensing system, and a universal garage door opener.
Option packages and free-standing options are much the same as the XLT, but you can also add Equipment Group 501A, with a 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system with HD Radio, the Technology Package, rain-sensing wipers, remote start and a windshield wiper de-icer.
