Happy Find

[JSandman]

New here, and to the Expy. Back in March we found ourselves a used 2017 XLT with 33k miles and the icing on the cake for me was the factory HD Tow Package. Found the site a month ago while dealing with a broken window regulator and I've been hooked on reading since, figured might as well join.

I have one thing I haven't figured out that someone in the forum might be able to answer. I'm the second owner for my Expy, I have all the original dealer paperwork to include the window sticker. My question is the vehicle is an XLT model but it notes King Ranch trim package but bears no King Ranch badging? We've got one tone (black) leather seats, power everything, nav, and all of the stuff I know to be an upgraded trim level but nothing screams King Ranch like I've typically seen. Thoughts?

Thanks @MrSticker that kinda helps. What I suspect, and this sorta confirms is the original owner took the xlt and made a ton of option selections that for some reason the second dealer selling it just dubbed King Ranch. It has a ton of extras but it's still subtle which I rather enjoy!

Kinda like my 2014EL. Its an XLT but has 201a & 202a (I believe, don't have Sticker which is ironic) & HD Tow Package & a fairly good sound system and a lot of stuff I like without a moonroof and other things I would definitely not have.

MrLokiWolf says you really need to upgrade your rear wiper arm/blade and he KNOWS.
(yes, I'm yelling)

I say you should purchase solid lug nuts ... and maybe have it Krown treated if its still good underneath. I also advise flushing out the inside of the rocker panels every spring and then seal that off (all the holes on the inside bottom) before every winter after blowing Fluid Film in there. Worth the effort to keep those rockers from rusting out. Has worked wonders with mine. You will find a lot of good info on this Forum. Make sure the drain holes are clear at bottom of all doors (to drain) ... remove plastic plugs & discard IMHO. Follow all scheduled maint too but do plugs early. There is a way to get basic Sirius for $5 a month if you seek. If you have any questions you can usually find an answer by searching the Forum. Lots of stuff already here.

Yea, if your expy is the one in your profile picture, it is most def not a king ranch. It must be the 202 pkg which pretty much outfits it with almost everything the ltd trim has.

What paperwork says "King Ranch"? If it's something typed up by a dealer, it might as well say Maserati Package.

Thanks for the info everyone, it is the vehicle pictured which I'm very aware isn't a king ranch. The window sticker actually has it dubbed "king ranch" which is where my confusion began. In looking at things closer I believe it's like @MrSticker said and it's a combination of 201 and 202 packages. Anyway you have it still a happy find, and this site has been very helpful!
