Paul, it will get a nice brown patina regardless of where it is. Additionally, we will have wirehair nose art on the inside of the windows.

<p>Congrats, a friend just bought one and came to visit, lots of room in the back seat. We have a 2009 4x4 Ranger XLT, auto, 6 cyl, 4.0 L with a FWC Eagle shell which we tow behind our Motorhome. I had to have Ford install a Neutral Switch, before it was towable 4 wheels on the ground. Is the new ranger towable without any mods?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>BY THE WAY - All my wife could say was I want one, when we got out. But I'm not ready to lose my mind yet.</p>
<p>Enjoy the new toy</p>

Thanks! I have the tow flat mod in my 2007 as well. I think you meant a 4.0L in your 2009.

Yes, the 2019 is tow flat from the factory. Not as simple as the older models, but easy enough.

Very nice looking truck. I know that feeling of smiling ear to ear. You'll have fun setting it up with the camper. Takes time but fun learning the new ride!
