  1. 10R80 the beginning of the downhill slide?

    Off topic, but how does it tow with the tractor, I have an l2501 with loader and am hesitant to try to tow it with the ranger. Someone also mentioned it wouldn’t be a good idea to tow it with the ranger on the kubota forum but I know some of those guys are old school and are under the opinion of...
  2. 10R80 the beginning of the downhill slide?

    I am glad it has been working for you thus far and truly hope it will help keep it going without issue. My frustration comes from the fact that you probably had to drop a significant amount of money on all this - monitoring, the dipstick, the new pan, and everything else when really you...
  3. 10R80 the beginning of the downhill slide?

    I agree with this and what you said before this post. My frustration is that I see other (non American) manufacturer's fix the issues and Ford plays them off as minor and implements a half assed fix or refuses to acknowledge them and say it’s working as designed. My primary reason for selling...
  4. 10R80 the beginning of the downhill slide?

    I do get the point. I just, respectfully, don’t agree with it. I am not looking to argue here, just maybe help so you see where my thought process is coming from. If you can’t do it yourself you’re probably looking at least 500 for a transmission drain, filter, and fluid. Not including the up...
  5. 10R80 the beginning of the downhill slide?

    I don’t understand why people are recommending snake oil for the transmission. It’s a badly engineered product. No amount of mystery oil will fix it. That stuff would not have stopped my transmission from having 2 stuck valves due to large metal chunks. My transmission after the rebuild without...
  6. Ranger will be parked mostly -Ethanol Free Gas?

    I use stabil in all my equipment and power service stuff in the tractor. I believe for mixed gas the stihl mix has a clone of stabil in it. All that being said, I have never had a fuel issue in any of my equipment, but before I used to put stabil in stuff, I never really experienced bad gas...
  7. Local shop ok?

    Yes and it is really a huge deal in tech, things like those warranty void if seal broken you see on prebuilt pcs are technically illegal in all 50 states. But most states don’t do a great job of enforcing it. Or not supplying parts because you arnt in their dealer/sales network. Razer does this...
  8. which winter tyres?

    I had blizzaks on my focus, I really liked them and I know they had Lt sizes/ratings. I think any brand name winter tire will be a safe bet though. I’ve heard good things about Nokian as well
  9. You on here bro?

    It’s one thing to cherry pick studies and put it in an article but to then to just complain and whine in the rest of it is on a whole new level of “journalism”. It’s like reading his personal journal or something.
  10. You on here bro?

    that article really affirms some stereotypes are based on truth. Good lord that was painful to read. “I don’t like it so you can’t drive it”
  11. Mysterious Squeaking Then Nothing

    I had a leaf and twig that made a similar sound that was stuck between the hood and plastic cover beneath the windshield, made a similar sound. I don’t think it’s mechanical related.
  12. Well I did it...ordered a 25 RR

    Love the color!! Is that a metallic paint as well?
  13. What do you NEED TO DO to your Ranger?

    Thanks for letting me know, I’ll check out the app and see if it says anything. If not doesn’t sound like it will be able to be fixed until after the new year anyways. I saw I think your post or someone’s about block heaters. That’s about as bad as the takata airbags but for people who live in...
  14. What do you NEED TO DO to your Ranger?

    Need to take it back to the dealer for a new issue! I know there is a recall around this but if it’s intermittent will they still fix it for free?
  15. Transmission to be pulled for the 3rd time.

    I’ve heard nothing but good things about the last few gens of the frontier, there is a reason they are still on rental fleets
  16. Transmission to be pulled for the 3rd time.

    Don’t blame you. I plan on following that same path in the next few months. Stick around on the forum though, lots of ex ranger owners are still active.
  17. Swollen lug nuts

    I think there is a pretty detailed thread on here with drawings about that. I know I never even thought of that until I saw it.
  18. Transmission to be pulled for the 3rd time.

    im am not saying Toyota is Gods greatest gift to us like the Tacoma forum might say, but in my experience and many people I personally know, Toyota did leagues better than ford when issues occur. I am not saying they are perfect, I think they all suck. It’s just who sucks the least. Really now...
  19. Transmission to be pulled for the 3rd time.

    As much as I see people hate on Toyota around here, at least they admit and fix the issue. Ford just says no it’s normal and will do whatever it can to screw you over.
  20. Transmission to be pulled for the 3rd time.

    not gonna lie your description of the Tacoma sounds like my ranger. Stiff suspension and cheap interior. I think a lot of it is that it is one of two options for a non American brand true midsize truck(No hate to the ridgeline, it has its place). I know a lot of people who won’t buy American...
