Looking at upgrading to a ranger.

What are some of the behind the scenes upgrades going to the px3?

I know the key disappears, and it gets sign post and toms, but anything else?

Is the engine fan variable like the Everest now?

Depends on if your talking 3.2 or 2.0 really.

Headlights, NVH reduction, mostly visual changes. 2.0 vs 3.2, 6 speed vs 10 speed.

If I was to upgrade right now then I would get the 2.0.

Mostly visual external changes, NVH, Sway bar moved so option of more caster. Interior is darker, so looks bit more upmarket. TPMS on cluster.

So not much really.

The fixed price servicing, a different colour dash (silver replaced with black IIRC for XLT), some of the tech pack items are standard on XLT 19.75, but if you get the tech pack then you end up with the same result.

That is the general consensus but if it is I hope they do some changes as that diesel motor started production in 1994, things have advanced a lot since then.
