...Did the STX's come in different wheel base models as in, long beds, short bed's, extra cab??
One more mini-fact not stated yet - STX was 4x4 only.
Huh. Maybe in earlier years?
I'm just going by this 1995 brochure. In the several paragraph description of the STX, it ends with "Ford Ranger STX - It's a 4x4 only."
Plus in the powertrain chart that shows all Ranger models from XL to STX, and 4x2 to 4x4, it has slash lines through all engine choices for 4x2 STX.

I have a 1993 Ranger brochure in front of me (no tbars, you can't have it!)
It appears that only option that could not be deleted from an STX is "Speed control/tilt steering wheel", so you probably do not have an STX. (And the body stripe decal - but the truck could have been repainted.)
What color is it? There were 3 colors exclusive to the STX.
Chrome bumpers (which could have been changed) were only available on an XLT. As was already mentioned, XLTs came in a wide variety of trim adornment.
Just trying to muddy the waters...
One more mini-fact not stated yet - STX was 4x4 only.
No sir - the STX was available in both 4x2 and 4x4. (And, for the record, my brochure is from California.)

I wish Tbars would come get this brochure and scan and post it, so you all can help decipher it.
I don't know why, but I really like this thread!
Yeah, I would say that pretty much seals the deal. No tilt/cruise. It is what I would call a "mint" green metallic, with purple pinstripes. I doubt it has been repainted. Interior is typical grey/black. Except for a few dents, it's actually a nice looking truck. I think the 265/75/15 and the 4x4 ride height really make the look.
I'm def. convinced it's an XLT, at this point. Oh well, I thought it would be "neat" if it were an STX.
