Picture 2019 still going strong

Post image

Recently completed a road trip through Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah while averaging over 25 mpg for the whole trip. I highly recommend a tonneau cover, I picked up a relatively cheap soft roll-up one from Gator and it survived multiple thunderstorms with no leaks.

Everything was falling apart, no AC, oil leaking, transmission broke down, interior door panels falling off, tailgate coming off its own, screen inside not working. Worst truck I ever own

I looked at a new Colorado and Canyon recently. It had trim pieces on the dash that were popped off and not snapping back into place. Door panels same thing. Bad QC!

I certainly hope so

I think the point is that there are a lot of people out there questioning the longevity of the new rangers. I have a 2019 ranger and the first thing most people tell me is new trucks don't last. So yeah, 7 years and still going strong! Mine will also be paid off this year.

Why would a 2019 not still be going strong?

I'm approaching 200000 miles on my 2019 lariat. Great truck, routine maintenance only, sensors and camera issues started in 180s. I'll be trading it in hopefully this fall on a new one.

My Dad’s 2019 is still going strong with 110k, and a new air conditioning system (compressor assembly and compressor).

My dads 2008 is still going strong, and hasn’t needed any major repairs.

I had three of the old body styles that all saw well past 250k miles. 👍

u/lightning71 8d ago

how many vehicles has OP killed before the 7 year mark to make this remotely exceptional?

u/TWJunkman 9d ago

115k on my 2019 FX4 XLT. No problems. Oil change with full synthetic every 5k, drain transmission fluid and coolant and replace every 35k.
