I jump started it today. 9k miles. 2022. It was dead. Completely dead. No horn, lights nothing! Just the cigarette lighters worked. Really weird. The jump didnt do it either. Just kind of came back to life. An f150 with overland gear and rack on the bed stopped to help. Tightened all batt connections with a small dewalt impact. 2nd time it happens. I miss my 2020 ranger. My 2022 is not quite up to par. Though the locker is nice, and im going to get it stuck way out in the middle of south padre island this weekend. Ill just be sure to do it at high tide.

It has happened to a few members here on the forum too. I believe it is related to a bad battery issue. Fingers crossed. I just dont know where on the forum it is here.

Modern batteries are not as well constructed as they used to be as the manufacturers are looking for weight and cost savings. Ford Motorcraft batteries seem to be extra know to have a short lifestyle.

First post here. Got GTR Carbide lights and a grill from my lady for Christmas. Finally got around to installing everything and I will say I love it.

Now for the big question. Sequential turns or regular?

American flag ranger decals, mainly because, murica!

The truck I said I wasn't going to modify is getting an awful lot of modifications.

No tailgate dampener though.
