Thought I'd sign up to the forums and do some research while I anxiously await the start of Ranger ownership.

Currently, a two-Toyota owner, but both fairly new ones. But hoping to replace both of them with Fords. One will be the Ranger and thinking of an SZ Territory for the partner. But, what's likely going to happen (I can see it in my mind now) is that the partner will "steal" the Ranger each morning forcing me to take the Territory.

Advice for or against either vehicle choice is welcomed.

SNAP!

I've just ordered mine a fortnight ago. XLT 2L dual cab. Got an "NSC order number" but don't know what that is or does. "Might" get it by August 20th - but no promises in these interesting times.

I tow. Had my Jeep Grand Cherokee diesel written off in a minor bingle 3 weeks ago. Been looking toward a Ranger to replace it anyway.

Fate ensured this. Not complaining - its basically been lockdown in Sydney since the said minor bingle - so not having a car is not critical, for now.

As long as it arrives for my Long service leave in late September/October, I'll be a happy camper/caravanner.
