ZR2 has you covered. HVAC still has physic switches (and dear God are they better than the Ranger), and you can actually put your GPS map on your main gauge cluster (also a 11+" display) in the new truck.
My younger twenty years self I would do the 6 hour round trip tomorrow to go get it and then go do my 12 hour shift at work.
My current much older self knows I get cranky if I don't get my afternoon nap before returning to night watch after being off for a few days.
Well this is surprising (in a good way), the dealership misquoted arrival time. Looks like it showed up on the transport truck 3 days earlier than anticipated. Now a days its pretty much standard to be delayed on everything from production to transit times (vehicle stuck at a railway hub for...
I was lookin for a product that does not require any additional mounting of items in the cab.
Garmin is the only one who makes a product that can interface directly with the existing infotainment center to meet this requirement. Someone on here mentioned the Ranger's 8" screen. In my case...
Checking around internet / YouTube, while yes those buttons can manually turn the channel on, almost everyone uses it as a "Test Button" when wiring things - they don't actually wire that thing somewhere in the interior.
Ditto. Prior to them updating it with the capability of using a factory head unit, I thought it was a overpriced wireless controller to bluetooth app which could be found a dime a dozen on Amazon for far less.
It is still a lot of money, but this feature does move it into the realm of...
Considering this for the new truck. Kind of pricey. Previously it required a smart phone or garmin touch screen device to operate, but it has been updated so it works with your vehicles Apple Carplay or Android Auto so it becomes a menu option. This means your aux items can now be controlled...
Yea but that is a Super Duty. Photo would have more credibility if it was a bottom trim current Tacoma behind that older gen Tacoma.
An actual photo with a legit comparison;
All 3 gens. Not much difference in the Tacomos.
Now old Ranger vs new Ranger, still not all that drastic; (height...
The big Plus on the ZR2 interior is while it does have the large dual screen electronics like most stuff a lot of the normal stuff is still on toggle switches and in this case primarily the front and rear locker. I don't think any reviewer online who has had their hands on the Raptor...
No doubt the Ranger Raptor interior makes the ZR2 interior look like dog shit. I was really looking forward to those raptor seats.
However between Ford's inability to get stable production after numerous years and the price tag difference, I can deal with it. The trade off is, I think the body...
Mostly. My garage floor is basically built like a house deck and then 4x6 posts as the driveway. I did dry pour a strip of a concrete down middle so when I am changing oil I am not laying in crusher run.
Keep in mind this is a detached garage, or more accurately a metal 18x30 building with...
I have 3 grilles.
Factory XLT in all Satin Black (including logo), the Raptor Knock-Off in Satin Black, then the no-name Amazon one with the front DRLs/Turn Signals. I'm keeping the other two as wall décor in my garage.
Maybe. Not a lot of new ZR2 content out yet besides TFL stuff.
I will say, going with a weldless design makes taking things off an easy one man project. lol
Capability wise yes it is a huge improvement. Most people don't realize my truck is only RWD.
ZR2 is 4WD, dual lockers, 360 cams, much nicer suspension with DSSV multimatics, much nicer interior QoL features than current ranger (but crappier than the one coming out), etc etc
Its just time...
I won't know until I try.
Regarding the factory studs sticking out (or the attached nuts) above level with the adapter, if a wheel has recessed pockets, then you are good to go. If not you either don't do it, or take more drastic measures.
