What did you do to your Ranger today?

[Igor]

Installed the Wolfhaus power outlet. I'm pretty impressed by this thing. It's much nicer than I was expecting for a small operation. He got all the details right; foam gasket on back, logo in the side and full color instructions. Looks like he's also based in my state too

Thera are many different part on the site? Which ones to buy?

Hi Folks,

I sat home while my poor Ranger sat at Jim Click Ford, here in Green Valley waiting for TSB 20-2339 to be completed as they allot 0.4 hour. Got a call at cocktail time that they had to keep the truck overnight to allow the tech to complete the tests before they would even consider reflashing the computer. So much for the cold start evaluation. Click Ford really sucks.... Anymore service will have to be done at Horne Ford in Nogales 40 miles away. Lot of travel relative to Click Ford, but it appears worth it to have timely service. In the end the Service writer indicates the tech will likely not do the reflash but give it back to me as is....Really sucks....

Supposed to get it back at 10am. bet it does not happen. Meeting friends from Portland tomorrow in Tucson for lunch. They are going to move out or Portland due to the continued mess in that city... Click will likely call when at lunch with these friends....I guess I will tell them we will be right down and then let them stew until around 3 to 4pm....

Click tears up each new vehicle electrical system to install their alarm system for which they charge a million bucks..... Awful....

To bad they are only 5 minutes from my house...

Depends on what you need. I got V3 because I want to DIY what plugs into it. V3 is a pre-made truck side harness and blank accessory side connector with not wires.

Most people probably want V1 as it's all pre-made.

No problem.

I watched a lot of YouTube videos and decided Bullet Liner would be an excellent choice. I also like to support small business owners when I can.

I'm going to Southside Liners (Newnan) tomorrow for the Bullet Liner. $400 (just in case anyone was curious).

Installed a console vault into my center console.They make one that fits under the rear seat,but I have a sub installed there so...
It is a nice sturdy piec,so I can lock things up that I can’t carry into some establishments.

Nice! Large enough for a subcompact pistol to fit? I imagine that it would be.

It is indeed,it really keeps all the useable space the way it fits the console.Very clever sturdy design.

Hi Folks,

I finally picked up my Ranger today after 48 hours to accomplish a 0.4hour TSB. The dealer service writer indicated the dealerhip needed Ford's approval to do the update and then performed TSB 20-2033...not TSB 20-2339...hope this was a typo. Anyway...the Ranger is now home...we will see if their update improved the cold start surging.
