  1. 154k mile Ranger

    Yes, I have no issues, regrets, or want for any other vehicle right now.
  2. E racing

    I was thinking along the lines if old school HO track cars. I think identical cars is fair, an important part missing for ne is the shifting. But you're right, it does highlight skill level. That's why I love the road courses better than oval track, regardless of car type.
  3. E racing

    Just got back from a walk and turned on tv, on CBS, they are showing FIA Formula E racing. I could get used to the body styling, as this has always changed over time. Having trouble with listening to the whining of the powerplant though...
  4. 154k mile Ranger

    43k on my 2019 Lariat. FordPass finance says $26k trade in value.
  5. Oil Change: is slight forward or backwards slope better?

    Always flat on garage floor. No jacking up, seems like plenty of room for me to slide under on a piece of cardboard. Even the filter, I just turn the wheel and I have plenty of room to work. Since I'm in no hurry, I do let it drain for a bit, every last drop, so to speak...
  6. Anyone think the new 2024 rangers look like mavericks?

    Damn that's steep. I think I paid $38k including tax, registration etc back in April 2020 for my 2019 lariat. A 2020 was only $2000 more. Saved $2k, no deleted parts, and problem free...
  7. Almost clipped a cyclist

    Funny you should say that, in early 80's, not much traffic at all, and a friend was roller blading home from a bar, using all lanes. Yep, busted... not a DUI, not sure there was any laws like that, but some other charge.
  8. Almost clipped a cyclist

    People in general have trouble sharing anything lately. Common sense isn't so common, courtesy is being taken over by entitlement. On shared rail to trail areas, while using to get to more technical riding, I've been told to go ride on the road, and many other "suggestions" after voicing with my...
  9. Almost clipped a cyclist

    yes, I fall into that group of not liking cyclists who are not courteous etc. Not sure of laws here or anywhere, but common sense says if you can't maintain minimum speeds as law requires, you should yield. Not many safe places to pass on these winding roads.
  10. Almost clipped a cyclist

    There used to be a gravel bike race here in the NEK. A real big deal, called Rasputista. Look it up for details on accident. Basically, it is a 25, 70 or 100 mile race through a couple of small towns in this mountain biking mecca. It encompasses paved and dirt roads. 2022 was the last, too many...
  11. Almost clipped a cyclist

    I used to bike a lot in the 70's and early 80's. Then it became dangerous, even though a bike has been given the same right to use the road as a car. That is when I switched to mountain biking, or staying on side streets with little to no traffic. Same reason I stopped riding motorcycles...
  12. Fuel level no accurated

    How many miles you driving? Mine can stay on full until around 80 miles or so. After that, pretty consistent drop.
  13. FordPass is watching us?

    Third time viewing this thread, third time going in to see how to lower the sharing. Can anyone give specific instructions on this?
  14. Stuck

    I remember 3 wheeling in the Glastonbury Meadows one spring. It's an area where the CT river floods, leaving large mudholes etc for weeks. Came across a youngster with a full sized stock Chevy, in a shallow, small, mud puddle stuck. Trying to get out by sticking styrofoan under his tire, all the...
  15. Any one planning on going on an eclipse watching trip April 9th?

    We live in the line of totality, so no travel necessary. Living on an eastern ridge gives up an unobstructed view of the horizon as well. Hoping for clear skies...
  16. FordPass is watching us?

    and that screenshot was not something I could find as well.
  17. FordPass is watching us?

    FordPass has been "free" to me since I bought truck. After spending 20+ minutes trying to navigate around the phone app, I see nowhere to opt out of anything. I did see opt out of selling personal info, but it was only for a handful of states, mine not one of them. If anyone has instructions on...
  18. Battery Replacement Recommendations

    When I opened my monthly report email, I logged in and saw on dealer specials or coupons. I attached the page, I hope...
  19. Best tires for 2019 ranger 4x4 lariat. Time for a new set. Also getting time for front struts, go with oem or is there a better brand?

    Nobody has asked yet so... Why do you feel you need to replace struts with mostly street/highway driving? Not sure struts would ever have to be replaced with that driving. Maybe over 100k
  20. Battery Replacement Recommendations

    2019 lariat, 43k, no battery issue warning signs, although I thought the auto stop/start had an issue. Turns out it was very cold and defroster on. Once I turned it to feet, auto SS started working. Went onto FordPass, running battery specials. 1000ca for $149, Beats the $300+ I've seen at parts...
