You guys with 3D printers sure have a lot of fun. Just don't think the wife will me have one.

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.

There's a fix for this? I absolutely hated this last winter and as it starts to get colder in New England. This is starting to occur more often again.

You might be able to 3D print a new wife? ?

If that was true, he would be the wealthiest man on the planet, Ha Ha.

After 43 years I don't want to have to break in a new one.

Hi Folks,

I got my Ranger ready for its sleepover at the dealership tonight. Since they need to cold start it, I have to drop it off in the service lane tonight and put the fob in the key drop... Not real happy that Jim Click Ford will not just reflash the PCM and be done with it....

Had the PCM re-flashed almost a week ago...runs much smoother and no surge when leaving a stop sign or crossing 3 lane road.
My local dealer just did it. No need to drop it off. I do think they went on a little test drive and more than just around the block. I didn't mark the mileage, but it just seemed like it had been driven more than needed.
At least it is running better now.

Finally did my rear badge since my truck has no chrome anywhere else.

Installed this ARB cargo drawer (RDRF1355 + half of the MA19FKEK side floor kit). Drilling the first hole through the bed was a bit stressful!

Those drawers look great. It’s nice to have the option of using one side.

Sorry no pictures... Right after I got the truck last year I added JL C1 series components to the front and coaxials for the rear. It's the base radio. I finally found the best amp upgrade, the Kicker Key 180.4, although there is a new one 200.4. I got it from plugnplaykits.com. He has the factory wiring harness included, so no wires need to be cut etc. The unit fits behind the small screen perfectly. Very nice sound volume improvement and dsp correction is fantastic. Very happy I waited and researched.

What did I do today...went outside and looked at it lol. Wanted to wash it but it’s gross and misting/raining on and off.
