The special edition comes in at $58,915 for the manual and $61,115 for the automatic, both stickers are before on-road costs and lob a $3,500 premium over their respective XLT equivalent.

‘We developed the Ranger FX4 for our customers that are a bit bolder than most and make use of the towing and payload capabilities of the Ranger XLT,’ added Whickman.
