Such nonsense. The deuce and a half I drove in the army 50 years ago wasn’t smooth, but these Rangers should be tight - “Ford tough”

Took another couple out of town for supper. Nasty weather on the highway home in the dark, high wind and near blinding sleet. Had to use 4H in the mussy parking lot to ease out of tight spot. We were impressed with how quiet and comfortable the truck is both front seats and back, and I was...

I wonder if that is available in Canada?

I did not know that. Could explain why my sill protectors fell off.

I did a lot of looking and reading before settling on the Ranger. Ended up Ranger vs Taco. Ranger had the edge in towing and box size, but also cost several thousand less. No regrets.

I always park at the back of lots to protect the truck and get exercise. Meet interesting people out there - like minds.

Coming up on a year and still smiling. would Have got this truck instead of minivans during the small kids years.

See my post #503 https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/tsb-20-2277-2019-2020-ranger-shudder-vibration-when-accelerating-from-a-stop.8908/page-34#post-226680

The excellent way my startup vibration resolved after switching to premium has me wondering about the role of engine performance in some of these vibrations. But of course they did replace the rear pinion and carrier bearings too. So many variables.

This is why I read these threads. Thank you!

That looks like a great option. Wish I'd seen it before I ordered the plastic Putco version. update: wait the Putco is also metal

Where did you source it, and what is it called? I’ve been trying to find the thread that talked about filling that gap.

So here's my update in case it helps the community somehow. I noticed the takeoff shudder during the test drives, was told it was the startup fan, knew it wasn't but assumed it was a characteristic of the truck. Then a few months later the TSB post came out so I took it in. They used a shim kit...

I just watched my Ranger from indoors today. Wind chill -26C, snowed all day with howling wind.

Are the Ford wheels that come with the Ranger hub centric already, or do they need rings because the hub diameter is larger so they are stud-centric?

Like this? Started today. Sound signal too. Turns off when I start moving. Has been snowy and icy but the sensors look clean. Truck was in doors for 2 hours tonight but outside on way home it started again.

I’ve been some impressed with the Blizzacks I put on this truck before winter hit full on. My Subaru Forester was the best winter drive I’ve had in 50 years of Canadian winters, but this Ranger with the Blizzacks is good enough. Rarely had to use 4H. Big difference in snow from the stock...

The interior ambience lighting arrived. Just need a warmer day to install it.

This video just won my award for best dad joke:

Did This yesterday. Small mod, big improvement. Thanks whoever posted the idea somewhere here previously.
