  1. Tacoma reliability

    Owner claims it has 40k miles on it, at which time the engine made un-toyota like noises and started producing chocolate milk the depths of the oil pan....sayonara. I just have no love for toyota products.
  2. Tacoma reliability

    This Toyota tacoma is so reliable, it has been holding down t his patch of gravel for 14 years with ZERO maintenance, owner claims it hasn't cost him a dime in ownership costs in all those years ( tags, insurance included) current occupants (mice) agree, toyota is the best!
  3. New Guy

    Nice looking Ranger! Love the color. Since the light bar isn't hooked up, lose it, I cringe when I see people blocking airflow through the front end of turbo charged vehicles. You came to a great place to learn about Rangers.
  4. Ford, GM Could Be About to Make Weapons for the First Time Since WW2

    Note to Ford and GM, this isn't going to be nearly as easy as slapping together B-24s on re-tooled auto assembly line.
  5. Boat ramp troubles

    Well, its a damn good thing there were no witnesses or cameras.
  6. Boat ramp troubles

    C'mon! The cold makes you feel alive! Nothing like 44 degrees water on 38 degrees day with 10mph north wind pushing white caps on the lake.
  7. Boat ramp troubles

    Temps in high 30s, wading around in water is not my idea of making a "splash" The army corp of engineers needs to start holding some frikkin water back in these reservoirs.
  8. Boat ramp troubles

    Towed the 16ft boat to a "somewhat" local reservoir to get in on the hot, spring trout fishing, launching was uneventful, however retrieval was NOT.....Very low water levels meant lousy gravel/mud ramp, ( used to be the logging road when lake was built) getting boat back on trailer after about...
  9. OEM Ford Battery Life vs Static Voltage

    My issues with being in battery save mode and no remote features, vanished when I parked the F250, and actually started DRIVING IT EVERY DAY.
  10. 10R80....Are they all ticking time bombs?

    My company 21 F150 4x4 gets the 1st gear clunk sporadically, once it was so hard, I thought the camry behind me had rear ended me.
  11. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    My 22 Got 26mpg on a trip last summer, wife was driving, and following me in the class C motorhome, loafing along at 55-60 mph, I was fairly impressed but I have seen 23-24 mpg on long interstate runs at considerably higher speeds.
  12. New, old guy.

    3.0 V6 5spd, it was great little truck.
  13. New, old guy.

    I think my favorite old Ranger was the 84, 2.8 V6, 5spd 4x4 with 7ft bed and DUAL tanks, it had range to get there, and would go anywhere. Miss that antique.
  14. Which window rain guards?

    I got the weather techs, never a issue, and they are a must have in Oregon.
  15. China copy cat

    Maybe Harbor Freight tools will be a dealer for these things, it breaks, bring it back for a free replacement!....(with receipt) Hint: Get the extended warranty.
  16. 10R80....Are they all ticking time bombs?

    I'm watching the company's fleet of 14 F150s, they range from 2018 to 2023 with 2.7s so far none have had and trans issues, there's been a bad turbo and a few odd sensors and one guy had his catalytic converter stolen, but none of these F150s have over 75,000 miles yet, so it's not a great...
  17. 10R80....Are they all ticking time bombs?

    My company 21 F150 has a definite "thunk" dropping to first at a stop sign, but otherwise flawless, my 22 Ranger is silky smooth all the time, and it has done its share of towing a boat in spring/summer so I may invest in proactive trans service at the Ford dealer where it gets its maintenance.
  18. 10R80....Are they all ticking time bombs?

    Since I'm new here, I see thread after thread of 10R80 horror stories, is it that bad? I have experienced 0 issues in 4 years and 15k miles, but the 5-60 is looming. Is it time to unload it on a 6G Ranger or a F150? ( which all have the 10R80)
  19. Transmission to be pulled for the 3rd time.

    My 2 cents on the tacoma thing, had a 2020 tacoma 4x4 crew for a company rig.....POS, rode like a conestoga wagon, drank gas like a 460, horrible seats, cheap plastic interior, a symphony of rattles, on cold mornings trans hung on to 3rd like a long lost friend, 0-60 in 10 minutes, this is a new...
  20. Ford CEO admits 'the customer has spoken' amid company's worst performance slip since 2008 financial crisis: 'It's a big miss'

    Axing passenger cars was a incredibly stupid move, the Fusion was a hell of a car, and a real seller. How about refreshing the Panther platform still in RWD, and offering a Crown Vic with the 5.0 coyote, Law enforcement would eat it up.....bye bye Charger.
