What did you do to your Ranger today?

[ScrappyLaptop]

Installed the autostop eliminator -- well worth it if you ask me. Absolutely hate that feature and glad I can now forget about it (although I still wish that the button wasn't even there...).

I dunno, I grew up on carbureted vehicles and the tail end of distributor points (first thing I usually did was upgrade them to electronic). I still find it kinda amazing how every time I come to a stop sign, the engine dies...and then starts back up again as if by magic!

Seriously, it's taken some getting used to. It's been a long time since I've driven anything from the '70's and I very much appreciate modern reliability. That engine-dying-at-a-stop-light panic though? Really took me back the first few months.

I don't mind the ASS at stoplights and such, but what gets me is when I get to my destination, stop -engine off - put in park - engine on - turn key - engine off. I think there should be a few seconds delay before ASS shuts the engine down.

Never even got a chance to notice that since I had manually disabled it before getting the eliminator, that would annoy me so much.

The ASS just bugs me. If others are fine with it then great but it's one of my pet peeves in newer vehicles. Also, I don't believe that it really has any positive impact on fuel or climate. If anything it's worse for the engine to be starting and stopping that much...

Mine simply does not work anymore. From what I’ve read it is a sign of a weak battery, yet I could start the car in the winter at -20C even after a week of not starting it.

Finally at Discount Tire to have wheels and tires installed…but not mounted. Will take them home first to ceramic coat them.

Any additional pictures @paquete305 ? That's the exact set up I'm going with only with icon UCA thrown in.

I changed the wide angle lens to an amber color and moved my trigger switches to the dash tray instead of the overhead console

Got a few things done today. Got it sprayed with bullet liner, added the bed outlet, and some extra tie-down straps. Lastly, put the bugflector II on. will be adding the tonneau tomorrow.

I had a set of BFGoodrich ALL TERRAIN T/A KO2 LT265/60R18/119S E1 BSWs put on my Ranger at the local Discount Tire.

How did you get the cobra logo on the screen? Forscan? Do you have more details, please?

Forscan. You can find videos on YouTube with all the screen options

Got my flex ultra tonneau installed. getting the seals to slide in place was a bit of a hassle, and instructions leave a lot to be desired. They technically describe the process, just inefficiently.

Oddly, the bullet liner sticker fell right off my window in the process.

Logos and stickers falling off, seems to be an epidemic. My Ecoboost badge just ran away a few weeks after I bought my truck. *shrugs*

You wanted more wasted money mods? You got it. On TODAYS EDITION OF ROAST ME:some holographic shiny vinyl overlay for the push to start. My bird eyes like ?

EDIT: Tossed in a bonus goodie I liked since I’ve had it. Forgot where these came from.

New BOV. Was on th fence about this one for a long time but got a deal on one from a forum member. Pretty happy with it. I like that it's silent other than when you really get on it.

My '21 never came with an Ecoboost badge. I assumed it was yet another item cut from the list but maybe it fell off in transit..lol. On another note, I thought it was funny that Ford accessories decided to advertise the factory sprayed in liner with a sticker on the back window. I took that off almost right away.
