  1. Strange part found on Garage Floor

    Whatever it is, I would guess it’s the right hand side version of the part by the RH.
  2. G** D*** F***ing Frisbee Golf Bastards!

    Hey - it never hurts to ask and while it doesn't make the situation any better it does help (hopefully) alleviate the out of pocket expense from you. It's along the lines of people who are pleasantly surprised when they file a complaint against their state's DOT for having a blow out due to a...
  3. Random vibration?

    I had similar symptoms at primarily low speeds (under 25) but also around 60 as well. TSB 23-2251 helped, but didn’t fully eliminate the problem. I suspect a few more shims would have fully resolved it.
  4. Canada /USA

    During the last few years this has been more commonplace: https://fordauthority.com/2021/04/u-s-car-dealers-are-gobbling-up-canadian-used-vehicles-amid-shortage/ Put on your tin foil hat for this one...
  5. TSB 23-2251

    I’m probably wrong, but don’t Tremors have a single piece drive shaft? If so - the TSB did *not* upgrade the driveshaft (in my instance) to a single piece from a two piece. But I’ve since traded in the Ranger because of this and other issues and therefore don’t care, so good luck! ?
  6. Bad day for the Ranger

    By no means am I a paintless dent repair expert, but the fact it looks like it’s on a seam and that part of the body I would imagine is not easy to access from the inside, makes this an incident where I’d hold the party at fault to their word. Seems like it would be an expensive repair in any...
  7. Ford Horizontal Bed Cargo Net

    No payment needed. I don’t have Zelle, PayPal, or Venmo (don’t want them). Message me your address and I’ll mail it next week.
  8. Ford Horizontal Bed Cargo Net

    Sold the Ranger so I don’t have a need for the cargo net I bought last year. Used twice, more or less ā€˜new.’ Goes for $65 new, but the first person to reach out gets it for free, I’ll even cover shipping via Priority Mail from USPS. Link to the part in the Ford catalog...
  9. Ford has an affordable EV coming…

    Starting at $4k for the Mustang and $4.5k for the Bronco makes it at the higher end of its competition. For that kind of money you could get a beater that has four wheels. https://ford-bikes.com/products/mustang-electric-bike
  10. What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

    Thanks for the tip, I’ll be sure to take a look at that point.
  11. What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

    Well, fingers crossed the tweaks they did for the 6th gen means it’s no longer an issue. And if it is, that’s what warranties are for. ? Really, you roll the dice with most new-er cars these days. It’s just about which ones are less problematic and the right fit for your needs.
  12. What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

    Drove it to the local Honda dealer and traded for a new CRV. It’ll be my third Honda in as many years and I fully intend on running into the ground with many hundreds of thousands of miles as I did with others before it. Originally was waiting for a new hybrid Mav AWD, but for the same/less...
  13. 2021 wildtrak cold start grinding noise

    I have a very similar noise on my 2.3. Doesn’t last nearly as long, but is present any time I feather the gas. I’ve wrote it off as ā€˜normal’ at this point, but am curious if maybe the cause is the same.
  14. Toyota to replace 100,000 engines

    Good on Toyota for owning the issue and recognizing it’s important to have happy customers so they buy from you again in the future. I wish more companies would proactively do stuff like this. Separately, yes - $32k for a motor replacement in a non-commercial vehicle does seem high. I had our...
  15. Had a Maverick XLT Hybrid for the weekend

    I'd equate it to getting in and out of an Escape; no awkward hop into the cab is needed. And like a few others have said, it is a factor in why I'm switching. Sure, you could bolt on some steps, but if someone already has mobility issues I would imagine going up and down stairs at home, to get...
  16. 5G Ranger vs Every Nextgen

    Old - but still relevant/accurate.
  17. 5G Ranger vs Every Nextgen

    The most bulletproof motor I’ve had in any vehicle - spanning Ford, Chevy, Audi, Jeep, Subaru, Honda. Yeah it was a unibody SUV, but I could abuse the hell out of it and it would just keep chugging along.
  18. Had a Maverick XLT Hybrid for the weekend

    They look small, but the interior dimensions are pretty close to a Ranger. I guess if you like sitting higher, then yes - the Ranger wins in this category.
  19. Had a Maverick XLT Hybrid for the weekend

    I don’t tow but once in a blue moon. Payload is more important to me and to this point, a Mav could have handled everything I’ve tasked the Ranger to do.
  20. 5G Ranger vs Every Nextgen

    100% would take the garbage fuel economy, but amazing relatability of the 4.0 L put in XJs, and other Jeeps. Newer motors seem to be trying to hard to be something they aren’t. *starts looking for used XJs on Autotrader* ?
