From the get go, my major complaint has been that the Ranger was just gosh darn too big. That and the fact that it was a 10 year-old Australian gussied up as a new American. Traded it for a Maverick. Virtually all the same tech with a couple of extras in a smaller package. Still Hot Pepper...

Not pushing this company, but they make a very nice e-brake boot for the Ranger. Or a shifter boot, if you have a manual (:crackup:). They're having one of their sales now with 20% off and the code PRIME. https://www.redlinegoods.com/

Carl_sj was nice enough to mention Redline Goods in a post. I ordered an e-brake boot for my Ranger in black leather with stone stitching to match my stone leather interior. I also ordered a shifter boot for my Mazda 2 (black leather with red to match that interior). Both arrived - from...

Anyone know where I can get this tailgate? :like:

It all depends on what mood I'm in. Nice to have a choice - small, classic, or large. :like:

Confession: I use CarPlay and voice commands. A lot. Plugged in the phone, pushed the voice button, and immediately got this message: Siri requires an internet connection. Seems their latest security update enables Siri to function without an internet connection, keeping your info in your...

Seems that Rangers are not the only ones with issues. :)

Some nice person left an 18" crease in my left, front fender above the wheel well. I thought I knew pretty much everything about my Ranger, but was surprised when my body shop told me it was aluminum and they don't work on aluminum. After many phone calls, I did locate a reputable shop that...

Drove my 2019 from DC to Devon, PA. When I got there, I had a chirp from the dash/glove box area. Three electronic chirps, silence, three electronic chirps, silence, and kept repeating. After the vehicle sat for 2 hours, all was quiet. If it is relevant - AC was in heavy use with frequent...

Ford has announced that they will officially introduce the Maverick on 06/08. I'll wait and see what they look like and build a couple, but I may be checking trade in value and loan pay off. Ranger is a good truck, but I miss my compact buddy. https://www.ford.com/maverick/

Social climber. Park or no park, Colorado ain't never gonna be a Ranger. :curse:

I hate it when I come out in the morning and find that Lone has been drinking. Not even the good stuff, cheap Natty. :curse:

All the dining rooms in my area are closed. Pulled thru Wendy's drive thru and into the parking lot. No problem with the Dave's singles (2 for $5), but what to do with the fries? Ah ha - that's what that's for . . .

Raises some good/bad points. https://www.autoblog.com/2020/12/11/ford-ranger-luggage-test/?ncid=edlinkusauto00000016&fbclid=IwAR2xtdcnnTE7b21FPFkmfJPqYBGHnubPafT7yCGdyLorYVgGP5c24nBpxjI

After somewhat of a delay, my chenille patch finally arrived. Added to an inexpensive fleece jacket, it's an update to my Ranger identity. (Ordered from Anything Chenille, expect delays as NJ curtailed their operations.)

Over many years of Ranger ownership, I only found one plastic model. And, it was cheap and ill-made. Even talked to Ford licensing with no results. Apparently, Ford is doing more to push this one...

Took lone over to the Italian place to pick up pizza last night. Parked under one of those high-mounted lot lights. When I came back and opened the door, this is what greeted me. Do you think he was trying to tell me something?

When Lone was in the shop, he sent me a message that my front sensors weren't working. It was a good way to know that they were replacing the bumper. Then, one frosty morning, Lone sent a message to the dash telling me that the camera was having trouble seeing and I needed to clean the...

For those who are not already deep into winter . . . Went out to run errands in Lone this AM. It was 21 degrees out and I tried to use the washers to clear the light frost on the windshield. I could hear the motor trying, but there was no juice. Got my gallon jug of fluid to refill it and...
