  2. 2021 Ranger Adds 4 New Colors: Cactus Gray, Carbonized Gray, Cyber Orange, Velocity Blue

    Since i'm in the reserve line for a Bronco, thought i'd share that the pic you chose for Cactus Gray is one aspect of it, the color shifts quite a bit with the light.
  3. Help deciding on a rolling Tonneau

    LMK if you want some close up pics anywhere. Frankly, I don't think I could "advise" on how to make it waterproof as we only installed it once (technically twice when the rails weren't aligned and the cover fell into the bed part way down the tracks) and never had any problems. If memory...
  4. Help deciding on a rolling Tonneau

    Interesting, we've had zero issues with water leaks using our RetraxPro for over a year now and in the greater Seattle area. Must have been beginners luck as we've never installed a cover before.
  5. Spot cleaning ceiling of 2019 Ford Ranger Lariat

    A steam cleaner using nothing but distilled water should be able to clean out any light scuffing/soiling on a headliner.
  6. Vibration/Shaking issue getting worse. 9k miles.

    Get a service tech to ride along with you while you drive. You replicate the problem on the road while they observe. Get verbal confirmation on that drive that they are feeling the issue. Then they write up those facts and get a copy of that printed out for documentation purposes. If you can...
  7. Help deciding on a rolling Tonneau

    Anecdotal evidence and selectively omitting facts has quickly led the aftermarket parts industry to make some bold claims and at times produce poor products. But hey, this is America and opinions are like elbows, most people have two! Engineers usually only have one, however. The opinion...
  8. Help deciding on a rolling Tonneau

    Anytime a manufacturer makes blatantly false claims about their products I am concerned about their business practices and their products. Just say: We use extruded aluminum, same as used on drink trollies and the sinks in airplanes. Not some grandiose claim that you're using premium materials...
  9. supercab seat delete: need advice on sound proofing

    As somebody who has found expanding foam shot into various places inside of cars, I do suggest you stay away from expanding foam. It goes in easily enough, but after that it's a ticking time bomb. Dead baby rats, insects, mold, you name it, i've found it inside pockets where expanding foam had...
  10. SCAB build, Seattle WA

    Not much Ranger stuff to update people on since it's been tax season and the world is burning. However, I (the BF portion of this shared account) just put a deposit down to reserve a 2021 Ford Bronco. We'll see what happens with their ordering system, however, since we dealt with this through...
  11. LIGHTNING BLUE Ranger Club Thread

    Have a head-on shot with your color-matched Raptor grill? The "D" look suuuuuuuper stretched out from that side shot :)
  12. LIGHTNING BLUE Ranger Club Thread

    To be factually correct, it would look like it (your truck, post wash with a ceramic coating established) had been detailed well enough for most people who don't actually invest in detailing their vehicle. Ceramic coatings have a number of visual drawbacks if you're wanting to compare a...
  13. LIGHTNING BLUE Ranger Club Thread

    Whoa, there's a rare sighting!!!! Yours is one of three FX4 SCAB's i've seen on here, the other had the magnetic wheel arches, and ours is the only one without any factory appearance options and Lariat trim (black pack for yours, or the painted arches/bumpers).
  14. Help deciding on a rolling Tonneau

    That is not aerospace grade aluminum. that thickness wouldn't be required unless structural, you wouldn't coat it as such, and there is no way at that price point they are using 2024-T3 grade aluminum. They don't even list the grade of aluminum used!
  15. Wax/Paint Protection

    Have yet to get a single manufacturer to document exactly what nano-sized ceramic particles actually do for your paint (aside from create a potential liability) in terms of protection, gloss, or hydrophobic properties. They do wax on poetically (see what I did there?) about their advanced...
  16. Help deciding on a rolling Tonneau

    Retrax Pro owner here. The thing that makes this the deal is built in track system. Obviously you pay to play here as you need the spendy rolling/locking cover, then whatever equipment/bars/tie downs you want for the railing. But this is the way we went and it's been superb. With this system...
  17. What is the name of this part?

    Exaaaaaaaaaaactly! Chrome package equipped truck had chrome. Must take steps to remove chrome! (and a part that isn't even exclusive to the chrome package at that)
  18. Bed rail mounts with hard tonneau cover

    Chris, post #2 had other options for you that were no-drill. If the goal is to stay under a $200 price point then you're going to have to MacGyver something up from bits at Home Depot.
  19. Wax/Paint Protection

    Had a bottle of Butter Wet Wax... Did two cars with it (3 applications in total), and gave away the bottle. There was absolutely no reason for the product to be so difficult to apply, yet somehow even worse to buff off, and provide so little depth, shine or value for the work put into it...
  20. Just SOME of the Warnings I Got Today

    It's almost a shame that with these modern cars and the LED screens, we can't play "dashboard bingo". It's a game invented in the Rover community as their warning lights are arranged in a 5x5 grid of lights in the center of the dash. Any time you can connect an unbroken string of 5 warning...
