  1. Audio System "Enhanced" Engine Sound and your Subwoofer

    This is required by the EPA/mileage police. Go to any high performance car forum where the vehicle has AS, you see the complaints. Why? Well, the mileage figures are predicated on AS buying you just a squirt or two of gas every time you stop. If you turn it off, you defeat this. For carbon...
  2. My Subwoofer Build

    Frankly, I just want to feel the bass in my butt. I had that in a H-K system in an AMG I owned. The subwoofer was a huge box under a panel in the hatch area. I think they abandoned the spare tire to make room for it. The vibrations were awesome.
  3. My Subwoofer Build

    What is known about this? Are we sure that engine noise is being injected? If so, how is it being done?
  4. My Subwoofer Build

    Jeezus Kee-riced! You are more engineer OCD than I am. Please hurry this along.

    I’ve always considered architects to be half-engineer/half-artist, thanks!
  6. 8492 - 2019 Ranger - Trailer Brake Controller Availability

    Yep and not a bad idea (reaching out to Lumen). This thing has taken on a life of it's own with me, but then again, the OCD-like curse of being an engineer.
  7. 8492 - 2019 Ranger - Trailer Brake Controller Availability

    Having spent quite a bit of time analyzing the 'system", I think there is more to this than just tapping into a wire under the dash. I also think this might violate warranty and if a trailer accident occurred, it could be problematic. What I would like is to hear from a Lumen or RedArc engineer...

    Can you just pop the headliner down (to look at the wires) without pulling the side panels?

    Levittown...$276.78 delivered.
  10. 8492 - 2019 Ranger - Trailer Brake Controller Availability

    Devil! I thought it was a lamp. Apparently the earlier RedArcs had either an LED or an alignment pin for the little hole in the bezel. The instructions even say to drill two holes. I could not for the life of me figure out what that small hole did as there is no LED or pin sticking up out of the...

    What's the white dot? The small hole on the bezel is under the skirt (0-10) of the knob.
  12. 8492 - 2019 Ranger - Trailer Brake Controller Availability

    What's laughable is that the instructions say 30 minutes! I have already spent hours planning the install--we'll see if I can do it in 30 minutes :LOL:
  13. Ford licensed TBC Install Instructions

    Floor Console Upper Trim Panel Removal Procedure (per Ford)
  14. Ford licensed TBC Install Instructions

    Got it, thanks! Frankly, that's scarier than the CHMSL headliner part...time to man-up.
  15. Ford licensed TBC Install Instructions

    Not to mention how cool that is next to the traction control knob! Could you post exactly how you get that center console off?
  16. 8492 - 2019 Ranger - Trailer Brake Controller Availability

    I have no idea what that first thing is, you want the second (VKB3Z-2C006-A).
  17. 8492 - 2019 Ranger - Trailer Brake Controller Availability

    This is what i got from Ford. Sort for the fuzzy, it's a frame shot from a video I am making.
  18. What did you receive in the mail today for your Ranger?

    Got my Ford authorized TBC kit today. All the goodies are there, now the fun begins. I thought it interesting that two of the most important parts (if you want the 'factory installed look'), the heat-shrink connectors, were in a small bag stapled to the box lid. I wonder how many guys will...
  19. Obscure/little things you love on the Ranger

    The head turning, the slowing down to take a look...yeah! On the operational side, the lane assist thingy. Talk about self-driving vehicles! Of course, nanny knows when you are fully hands off and tells you to get your hands back on the wheel :facepalm:
  20. 1,000 mile pre-tow break-in

    How firm is the 1,000 mile restriction? This car knows its mileage and it knows when a trailer is attached, will it squeal to Ford if I tow before the 1,000 mile break in? I am at 400 now, but am concerned about getting to 1,000 before I need to tow. My limit is 7,500 pounds and the trailer with...
