Ed,
Look no further than Flood Ford for a Ford extended warranty plan, I bought a plan from them and supposedly they sell them at cost plus $100.
My selling dealer (Cutter Ford) here in Honolulu could not touch Flood's prices.

Same here. The dealer I bought from said no way they could touch the price. Thanks!

Only if ford determines that ”any type of mod” caused the problem.
Regards
The problem you might run into is that fighting Ford (or any manufacturer) might require going to court, and that would require you to hire an attorney. In either case, you would lose money. That would be my main concern.

Yes, I do remember when I purchased the contract online that the state was asked for.
Sucks that Florida is dis-allowed.

At some point, there will be a mod that will be a bad investment and make your vehicle less valuable in the future. No matter how much you spend, it really does not have the effect you think it will have, unless you are trying to keep up with the "other guy".

Insurance companies do not have to pay out what you think its worth, and worse, they dont have to pay at all, if it compromised the factory standards. Remember that when they insure you, they only cover what rolled out of the factory, and will look for any reason NOT to pay you.

To protect your investment, you need to declare what you added to your vehicle, which in most cases, to keep premiums low, most don't mention anything on their policy.
Ain't that the truth, the only other entity more crooked than insurance companies are politicians.

Got my seat covers today!! Got them from Turtle Covers from across the pond. Ordered on Feb.25 and got them today (not bad for international shipping). They are pretty easy to put on. Just got to feed some straps underneath the seat to secure. I did the front seats today in between rain showers (probably gonna need an arc here soon...someone contact Noah). I'll get to the rear seat this weekend. Oh... and forgot about my Husky floor liners (as you can see they are getting well used) that I got a few weeks ago.

Funnel came in. Found a cheaper version of the Motivx on Amazon. $11.50 Canadian. I'm not complaining. Quality seems good and the same mod is required so it fits the Ranger.

Took it to the dealership for a free detailing.

They gave a me an Escape as a loaner. Suffice to say I'm happy I purchased a Ranger and not an Escape.
I had the exact same experience, uncomfortable and bland i hated it and felt spoiled when i got the ranger back

I picked it up. Don't worry, i'm coming back to get my 2007 Thursday night. That puppy still has the original headlights!
The original headlights on my '03 lasted 16 years, then burned out within just a couple months of each other.

Very cool that you're keeping the original. Unfortunately I didn't get to keep mine when I got the new truck.

Jeez, my 87 ranger headlights burned out very couple years, within a month of each other. It got to the point when one burned out, I bought two headlights.

I bought a set for it 7 years ago figuring I would need them any day now, I'm not even sure where they are at this point. Certainly would have to lookup how to change them ?
