Yeah, my auto start/stop quit working a few months ago. Truck's 3rd birthday is August 30. I'm gonna wait until just before then and have the battery replaced. I've gotten used to the ASS and actually kinda miss it. Gas prices have gotten much better lately but I'd still rather not burn fuel...

Doesn't Toyota offer a built in ramp (courtesy of frame rust)?

I'm sure the tens of people who bought them will be bummed. Kinda like the guy who knew a guy that met someone that heard about a person that bought the new Supra....lol

Lol, that was great. while in the USAF I was SOOOOOO happy to move from Idaho to Luke AFB in Phoenix. We loved it there once we got used to the heat. Had 3 cars without A/C while we were there but it was worth it. Used to joke I would lose 10 lbs every summer in sweat alone. Moved from there to...

My biggest peeve is GRAMMAR. It drives me nuts to hear so many people butcher a phrase or not pay any attention to what they are actually saying. I work at a dealership and all day long I hear "VIN number". No such thing. What does the "N" in VIN stand for? It's just like saying "I'm going to...

Think of the time you'll save by not having a damper.......Now you can go back to standing up to pee and not having to wait in line at rest-stops, concerts, movies etc. You can also delete Dr. Phil from your DVR.

My Two standard answers.....I still have all my "man parts" and don't need a damper. 2nd answer....Would Chuck Norris need a damper?

More like who ate their Wheaties as a kid and doesn't need a damper or the others....lol

Brand new, still in box Ford folding tonneau cover for Ranger 5' bed. Part number VKB3Z-99501A42-AB. All parts included in kit including weatherstripping and hardware. Retails for $579.00 Asking $250.00 OBO. I kind of stumbled across this one but decided to keep my current roll-up style. I'm...

One, the Bronco sells like crazy so that one will probably roll out immediately and second even if Ford did have any say in dealer pricing, isn't that a "used" one for sale at a non-Ford dealer? Their gonna ask what the market is willing to pay or darn close.

I explain to my customers that it's like going to the bank and you have 14 people in line ahead of you. Do you bully and whine your way to the front of the line or are you now number 15? We take in "stand-by" appointments in case of a no-show, wrong parts etc. But you have to be willing to leave...

If a customer is willing to pay big bucks for a 100% "discretionary" purchase, that is their choice. Gouging would be selling plywood at a huge markup just before a hurricane is forecast to hit. Major difference! If my house is worth $520k and someone willingly pays me $700k am I ripping them...

I sold the Mach and my 98 Ranger 4x4 to buy the new Ranger. Still have the old school '66. I love my truck but doubt I could ever give up having a car that will scream into a corner, power out of it and snap the back end into place when you bang out a nice upshift. It's really apples and oranges...

I just had a flashback to my 1st Ranger. The truck was a blast to drive. Regular cab, short-bed with a 2.9 V6 and 5 spd manual. Thing would fry tires all day long. My only complaint......I'm 6'3''. If I had the left turn signal on, my knee would turn off the turn signal when I let out the...

Even if they had offered a manual trans, I still would have gone with the auto just for the towing ability/convenience. That being said, I prefer stick shift as for as a rule of thumb. My 66 Mustang was an auto when I bought it. Now it's a 5-speed. Much more enjoyable to run it through the...

Been part of my signature for years......."Would Chuck Norris use a damper?"

10years, 5 months as active duty USAF helicopter crew chief. Priorities changed when my daughter hit school age. Moving around the country every few years has it's pros and cons. Thank you all for your service.

The one room in the house that I claim...lol

My daughter checked into getting a Maverick XLT FWD hybrid. Currently a 2yr backorder. Sounds like Ford has another homerun. She likes the pricing, 42+ mpg in town and that it's actually about the size of the original Ranger. One would look good in the driveway alongside the Ranger, Mercury and...

I ended up ordering a XLT w/302a pckg because I didn't want leather and hated the Lariat instrument cluster. I hardly ever open my slider but I like the way they look from outside. Seems like something is missing on the ones w/o the slider. My first Ranger (maybe a 1990 or so) had the slider...
