I watched a couple videos on installing the Putco front grill light and in a moment of impulsive decision making bought one. I'm already having issues with the instructions and the light itself but when it comes to the wiring I've become even more frustrated. The Putco harness to connect the...

I've been communicating with Eddy at Suma Performance. Their initial Group Buy offer got little traction although it did spark some conversation after the initial offer. Bear with me as I post this and then get Suma to validate or correct me. I had decided wider field of view mirrors would be...

First, for serious towing Ranger owners I'm going to suggest the Clearview models from Australia. Those look awesome but a must have for towing a camper. https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/clearview-towing-mirrors.16506/ (Pricing)...

When I lived in Royal Palm Beach in Florida I hit the Sunoco on SR 7 between Okeechobee and Southern Boulevard. Discount on a brushless carwash with a fill-up too. Not all Sunocos carry it (special blender pump?) and lately I'm all over central Georgia and have yet to find it. Can everyone...

A forum sponsor has a 'flash sale' on their intercooler for our trucks. While there is a decent debate for and against changing the factory unit out (and I hope we do that here) after looking at the dimensions and construction of what's available it seems the aftermarket is all aluminum bar and...

Forum sponsor Boomba Racing has announced a nice looking spacer for our ecoboost that - per their advertising - improves torque, HP and gas mileage... Sounds too good? The new Boomba product has extra ports unlike the Steeda 2.3 version that sells for one hundred bucks less. That and adapters...

The 360+ HP for the hybrid version too. https://carbuzz.com/news/next-generation-ford-ranger-shows-its-face-with-hybrid-technology

$46 Grand. Lariat with all the options My first thought was how restricted the styling cues are. Same sawed off fencing post exhaust as a base Ranger. It screams for red color matched grill lettering and color matched brake calipers and some type of tailgate graphics. I mean it's got...

I got a full-sized spare and don't need the temp that has never come from under the bed till now. Making room in the garage, $100 if you come 'n get it or I don't have to drive it too far.

I needed a bed extender last year and the only one available was the Sport version. Since then I've gotten the full bed version and have the used Sport version for sale with the new mounting hardware. If you are in Southern Florida and have $100 cash you can get a deal on a bed extender if you...

Back in June I was tweaking my Unleashed Tune with Torrie then late that month I added the second vacuum line to the UPR catch can. August/September I was testing the Velossa Tech Big Mouth which was netting some better MPGs... until after about 600+ miles after a gas fillup I got a 'check...

There's a recall pending regarding the reverse camera: https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2020/09/30/ford-motor-company-issues-one-safety-compliance-recall.html

My Ranger replaced a sedan and I've done some mods that may have accentuated torque over horsepower. 99% of my driving is highway and in town, and I'm noticing on less than perfect (damp/dusty) surfaces if I'm merging with fast traffic or getting on it at low speed straight my traction...

Back in August, Velossa Tech put out a request for a local Ranger owner to bring by their truck to test fit their Big Mouth Intake they were developing for our Rangers. The forum member they had been working with in developing one had blown his motor and wasnt able to help out. So I volunteered...

There's a crowdsourced product being developed and possibly for sale by the end of this year that could eliminate the need to plug your android phone in via a cord... https://www.engadget.com/android-auto-wireless-dongle-project-214711667.html

I'm looking to tweak my street handling performance by increasing understeer. The inexpensive way to try this has been to stiffen the bushings on stock sway bars, and I believe Prothane makes universal bushings that might work. I haven't been able to crawl under the truck in the daytime to...

I found that the longer I owned my Lariat, little cosmetic details bugged me, especially on the high-line version of this model. I got the mirror finish black letters for the tailgate because it seemed like an ignored styling detail. Same for the 'RANGER' logo on the front chrome trim, so I...

Ford has written down profits for the year, and GM has surged in contrast. It makes Ford look vulnerable but here I think we all know a superior product is best for consumers. Ford holds their own paper on 0% interest (as I suspect Toyota would be) and keep in mind there are Toyota plants here...

I've seen a few members have I stalled these and claim some benefit(s) while some are questioning the value without 'extensive' mods. I'm looking to address some subtle aspects of perceived performance in low speed throttle response and perhaps transmission smoothness. Phil S has suggested a...
