I'm not sure if they just haven't updates site, but Ford Canada's website still shows the FX4 package! even if they haven't updated it, the FX4 package was discontinued in 2008 right...? it wasnt offered on the 2009 model i dont think. if this is true, then wtf, lucky you know whats! stinkin Canadians! LOL...j/k

UNFAIR, you CAN still get the FX4 package in Canada!! i just built and priced one and you can order the option!

No kidding. Now if they did away with the f-150 that'd be a big deal.

The "FX4" is now a package available on the sport model and not a trim level like it used to be. Canada sells allot of FX4 models it would be foolish for them to not market it here. Come to think of it I am seeing more Z71 models and FX4's around here than plain XLT and SLT models. I like that were keeping our top of the line ranger up here.

You can make any 4x4 Ranger just as good and/or better than an FX4 anyway. Just takes a little work. I know I don't regret not getting an FX4, although I never even considered it.

the FX4's here arent two tone anymore, other than that there the same as the 09's were. Ive seen a few and it does nothing for me. I think the FX4 should only have been the level 2, (no inbetween sport 4x4 and level2) and when they killed the level 2 they basically killed the FX4 IMO.

Ok noobs. You just upped your post count by posting a retarded reply. I could care less about my post count. How else am I supposed to find out info on how to fix my Ranger? I stay because uhhh well ummm I own a Ranger. Duh. But who seriously cares that Canada still gets the FX4? Are you going to buy one? Didn't think so. And if you look I'm not the only one that doesn't care and I'm not the only one that doesn't like Rangers.

I could not care less if you hate rangers. I am actually looking at buying a new ranger and it is most definitely going to be an FX4. Can't see how you think saying "Who cares" qualifies as a useful post in anyway.

Your bickering with him is just a useless. He is allowed to post his opinion, even if its something you don't agree with.

Thank you Trent. I know I can be an a$$hole but its just how I am. I'm sorry that I don't find this thread useful but again I'm not the only one that feels this way.

Just let them cry and complain, it's nothing new around here, just make use of the handy Ignore User feature that comes in very handy for these kind of members.

To stay on topic, like said there are a staggering amount of FX4 based models in Canada, so killing the best selling model for us would be a mistake. I can understand why they have dropped the LII package though.

Yep! Christian may not like my thread, but many others do... I think they should have kept the LII, and FX4 and dropped the Sport.

So by the looks of it the "New" FX4 package loses a few of the options previously available on FX4 II models but not many. Your still getting a Torsen rear end, full skid plates, the 4.0L engine. They do not come with Bilsteins by the looks of it. Rancho's instead? Our Monroe Rep told us that Rancho shocks are just a sensatrack shock with a fancy rubber boot on it.

To bad you can't get them with the two tone scheme they had with the 06-08 years. Cannot forget side airbags and disc brakes to!

Click to view profile, then search for the User Lists drop menu under the user's name in the upper left hand corner, click "Add to Ignore List" and yes.

and you keep upping your post count by saying rangers suck, raptor is just an f-150... BLAH BLAH BLAH, nobody cares for your opinion, mr. attention.

if your only here to figure out how to fix your ranger why dont you only post when something breaks? instead of making people roll their eyes when you come in to their thread basically telling them their vehicle is a pos?

anyway, I can no longer see you on this forum so

Secretly, deep down, the OP just hates Canada and can't understand why the silly Canadians get a FX4 model and the almighty US of A does not. I say, blame Obama, everyone else is doing it for everything else.....LOL

Oh settle down now, don't ruffle your feathers and load your guns yet. Just having a little fun and adding another post count....LOL Seems that's the way this thread is going anyway......

**The OP linked to the 09 Ranger page. The 2010 Ranger (as stated by another member) has the FX4 package as an option or addition onto the Sport model.

You roll your eyes when I'm on the forum? Cool. Just shows you take the internet way to seriously. Again I don't care about post count. I don't even know how many I have and there are people with way more that have been here less time than me.

Well good for you that you can't see my posts. You must feel like a big man now huh? I really don't care if you choose not to read what I have to say. It just says your ***** are too small to take a little of critisism.
