2020 SC FX2. 11, 700 miles. My dealer told me they can't check fluid due to sealed for life nature of the tranny which I now know is bs after reading this forum. My tranny seems sometimes to skip or search for gears. Usually around 2-4th. I plan to talk to the service Mgr on next oil change in...

I too am considering a Mazda 3 or cx30. No longer need a truck and dissapointed in the 2020 Ranger. It has already eaten two batteries even when using a tender. 10200 miles. If it eats a 3rd may go with lemon law.

Thanks! Will consider this.

I have a 2020 XLT FX2. After receiving 'Veh Charging' for about a month or two the battery died and would not jump last December, had it towed to dealer. Bad cell so they replaced the battery which was about 14 mos old. Since I short trip allot and after reading on this forum, I bought a CTEK...

Be sure to eliminate them. Newer wiring uses soy based sheathing that rodents like to eat causing electrical issues. A service Mgr told me if this happens it's not covered under warranty. One lady had to get her insurance company involved due to thousands of dollars damage. Seems the engineers...

My 2020 FX2 battery died at 14 months after receiving 'Vehicle Charging' msg for several weeks. Never received any indication of sleep mode. Just totally dead one morning. I'm in Ga. and this was a few days b4 xmas. Would not jump so had to have it towed. Fortunately the tow truck driver knew...

Update...battery was bad. Dealer replaced under warranty but I'm now skeptical of the truck. Seems to me the Ranger was rushed to market and just can't handle the power load. It was produced for other countries that don't have the same regulations as the US. Translation missed for US.

I reccomend going immediately to the dealer. Two days ago went to go to the store and fx2 would not start or jump. It seems the auto start stop feature can be an indicator for a failing battery as it had stop working and the menu displayed Veh Charging. So you don't get stranded take it in for...

Hi SFB. No problem on price. Leer 2900.00 roughly, included front/back led light strips with option to activate with back door opening. Wired directly to battery so truck key to turn on is not required. 3 port dc power supply and felt liner (included free via promotion). Took the topper back to...

I agree. Could you send a pic of yours? I don't know why it even requires cutting at all. It's just a gaping hole that invites water in though I haven't driven yet while raining. Will do Thx for the response. I'm glad yours looks good. If by grace I can refuse it and get a refund, I'm headed to...

Thanks Bret. Same delivery time from ARE here. Long wait but if it's well done it's worth it. Best of luck. Trucks are a money pit. Gotta stop ordering things!

Here's pic.

Congrats on your new upgrade. You have the same truck as mine but mine is FX2 Rapid Red 2020. Does your ARE leak in the rain? Just tested 180 mid high as I just had it installed. Sat in driveway yesterday for a about 3 hrs in the rain. Leaked like crazy on all sides. Also check out pick. Bad...

Sorry Bret. Used wrong name to address you. Btw, did you sell the 180 and did it have the ugly knotch shown like mine and REDWM? Just saw a Flexseal paste commercial with the boat made of mesh and covered with the paste. Maybe something like this should be adopted by installers. Thanks.

Thanks Katia for the info. Seems all toppers have issues. According to Leer dealer, it's the newfangled beds that cause the problems. Holes and bedrails which complicate instalation. Seems with modern technology like CAD and lasers engineers could find solution. Especially for the shoddy front...

Hi. I'm Tim in Georgia. New to the forum. Just had 180 installed on my 2020 Supercab in Rapid Red. If I would have bought blue I may have driven out to buy yours. Great deal and good looking truck BTW. Just water tested. Leaks everywhere. Also have these knotches that look like an after thought...

Apologies for dupe post. I thought I lost the 1st so retype since I couldn't locate the original.

Hi REDWM. I'm new to this forum. Nice to meet you. I had a 180 midrise installed on my 2020 Rapid Red Supercab FX2 last Friday. Purchased the truck Oct. 8th. Traded a 1995 Black Splash Stepside and a 1997 Escort I inherted from my mom so this my 1st new vehicle in 27 years. Color match pretty...
