Overland Classifieds :: Turnkey 2019 Ford Ranger and Wedge Camper Overland Build

This might be the newest vehicle I’ve featured on the Expedition Portal classifieds page, and that got me thinking. I love classic vehicles, but they can be infuriating. The reality is that most old parts will need changing, and unless the vehicle has lived its life in a dry climate, it will also require some degree of restoration. The beauty of this 2019 Ford Ranger is in the title. “Turnkey” means you can spend more time on the road and less time in the driveway. This particular example showcases the XLT trim, tow package, heated electric front seats, rear locker, off-road screen, and terrain management. If that isn’t enough, this Ranger has been extensively modified to enhance its all-terrain performance, is fitted with a custom camping setup, and has covered just 38,000 miles.

From the Seller:

Overall, we are immensely proud of this build and have been thoroughly impressed by the truck’s performance, on-road comfort, and liveability. We have enjoyed it over the last two years, but it’s time for someone else to enjoy this truly turnkey overland rig as we dive into our next project.”

2019 Ford Ranger

Voted pickup of the year by Auto Express (autoexpress.co.uk) in 2019 and 2020, the Ranger remains the best-selling truck here in the UK. This midsize truck is both a commercial workhorse (the SuperCab 4×4 provides 1,320-millimetre cargo capacity, 1,650-pound payload, and a 7,500-pound towing rating) and a viable SUV alternative for recreational use.

Distinguishing Features

Extensive work has been done to enhance the Ranger’s all-terrain performance, including the addition of Icon shocks, an Old Man Emu rear leaf pack, Firestone airbags, Falken Wildpeak tires wrapped around Icon Compression wheels, an ARB bullbar, driving lights, Shrockworks sliders, a Warn winch, Bushwacker OEM fender flares, and more. Overland accessories include a custom-made camper shell, ARB awning (including the ARB awning tent), two roof racks, one 100-watt solar panel, a Redarc BCDC1225 charger, 100-amp-hour battery, custom-built kitchen slide, Dometic fridge, Coleman Triton two-burner stove, and a 13-gallon freshwater tank. The cab remains largely stock but features Husky floor mats, a BuiltRight Industries tray to mount accessories, and a Midland GMRS radio.


This 2019 Ford Ranger is listed for $48,000 OBO and is currently located in Denver, Colorado. Check the full vehicle specifications via the original Expedition Portal forum post here.
