The sticker says there is an electronic locking differential as part of the FX4 package.
That is a sweet looking truck 911Boss, love the blue color.

Question: How is the driver's seat, in terms of leg room for somebody with really long legs? Does the seat go back far enough for a long-legged guy like me (36" inseam)? Headroom is never a problem, but leg room is inadequate for me in most vehicles.
I am considering a mid-size pickup. I read that the Canyon / Colorado has 45" front seat legroom, I find that hard to believe, I'll have to stop by a dealer and sit in one. Most vehicles spec somewhere around 41", maybe 42" for front seat legroom.
I don’t know how legroom is measured, never a problem for me at 5’8”. I’d be happy to bust out the tape measure if you tell me the two points to measure. Pedals to edge of seat? Pedals to bottom of seat back?
I really don't know what to ask you to measure, this is best tested by sitting in the vehicle, but at 5'8" it would not be relevant. I'll try to stop by a Ford dealer and sit in one, might have to fend off the hyperactive sales folks.

I drove one a while back and the legroom up front was pretty good (I'm 6'2" with a 34" inseam). The only issue, as you can well imagine, is the backseat behind the driver becomes virtually unusable with the driver's seat back far enough for me to drive comfortably. Since I carry three and four people on a regular basis in my truck, this makes the Ranger a less than attractive option.

Currently my favorite Ford color. Same color we got for the wife’s Escape. If I could have had my choice, would be the color for my Mustang.
Wife wanted me to get “Saber” (Gold). It is a nice color as well, but the blue had better options.
Yes to the locking rear diff...

911BossAfter buying the truck Sunday morning, I found a message in my FordPass App Sunday night (was sent in July) with a special “Private Cash Offer” worth $1,250 off new Ranger from dealer stock, take delivery by 9/30.
Called the dealer Monday morning and they were able to apply it to the deal after the fact. Totally stoked, brings the final price down to $37,500 or $8,930 of factory sticker.

That's great news. Nothing like being happy with a deal and then realize you saved another $1250.
