Why did you buy that perticular model?

I mean it's not "Sporty" at all .

I got mine because i was anal about getting a v6 with a supercab, plus the incentives were awesome at the time on the model.

I got mine because it looked good to me and it was a big upgrade from my XL. Although if I would have waited a week, I could have gotten a 2005 XLT Black 4X4 that looked almost exactly what I have now for about the same price too!

Same reasons as snakeranger & Ranger Sport, also the FX4 had to big of a price tag for me at that time!!

Yeah there was another '06 XLT but it had fewer miles and the price was about 3,000 more so I went with the better looking ranger.

@Ranger Sport same story as me. I so desperately wanted the FX4, but saving a couple grand on a brand new vehicle was too good to pass up. The 4.0 and supercab pretty much had me too. Although, I still miss the I6 that i had in my 98 XJ. XD

A lot of people at work tell me how cool my ranger looks and how sporty it is so if it's sporty looking to them, then I'm cool with that!

you know I upgraded from a 97 dodge ram 1500 that was beat up bad.. so it was nice to step into a nice brand new 2009 ford ranger. but ultimately the Fx4 wasn't the nicest on the lot.. but the fender flares and the 4.0L got me sold instantly and the way it drives plus it has fog lights !!!!

Wanted a sport or fx4, sport loocked better to me... same basic suspension - looks better IMO

I also like the overall look of the SPORT. The fender flares with their fake bolts (!), the little red SPORT decal on the rear fender... the rear sliding glass. But especially the convenience of the 4 dr. That rear space is almost useless if the rear doors do not open. For an American pick-up, it has a pretty good mug on it. Black dresses it up real nice too. I'm sure it'll show scratches well!

Not a fan of chrome unless its rustic, love the white instrument panel, red decal on the bed and the fogs are great, love the vinyl flooring as well. I just like the overall look of the sport over the XLT
