External things like the wiring harness fuel rails and fuel injectors changed on the engine in 2007 but I'm pretty sure the core engine stayed the same.

Time flies...

New trailer lights; integrated electric brake controller; (also rearview camera)


Truxedo Cover;


Step Bars;


Brush guard with LEDs; 10% brightness for DRL, 20% with parking/low beams, 100% with highbeams


New Kenwood deck (hands-free calling, FTW); and new JL speakers with Pioneer sub;


New Falken tires; Impressed that they're not noisey on the road.


and like a good Ranger; there's rust. It's not thru the metal yet and I'm talking with body shops to fix this;
