  1. Just updated to Sync 3.4 on my Ranger 2019

    Does/will the auto update eventually update our versions? I am way late to this post, sorry if I missed that part.
  2. Ridgeline Guy Considers Move to Ranger Land

    I think the stock FX4 shocks are garbage. It makes the truck "wallow" from side to side on uneven bumpy dirt roads and makes it feel very narrow, would be my best explanation. It seems most prevalent on the FX4 and not as bad the other trims. From what I have read on here and other places, a...
  3. Bronco Reveal

    100% agree. It should have been the Escape and the new Escape should have been something else. I think Ford missed the mark on that. "Escape Badlands" had a better ring than "Bronco Sport Badlands"....lol
  4. Bronco Reveal

    Yeah for sure. Looks like $42k-45k for decently equipped 4-door. Minimum.....I had trouble paying $37k OTD for my Ranger. I am stuck in the old times I guess. Can't see me paying $40k for something that's worth 50-60% in 5 years. These Bronco's will sell above MSRP for a few months, then settle...
  5. Rock gaurd only on one side

    Yes. It was on both sides of mine. Didn't matter tho because it chipped like crazy below the clear film. There are a few threads on poor paint that show it....
  6. Slight Shuddering at 1500 RPM

    I will try to get a video with audio, but it may be a few weeks away. Summer is in full swing!! Had a 1990 Ranger with a severely worn slip yoke. It would vibrate crazy bad when you were driving at highway speeds and let off the gas. It was only when you were in that "not under load" that it...
  7. Slight Shuddering at 1500 RPM

    I have had a very minor, but noticeable "audible" rotational vibration that I can feel and hear, since basically new. One dealer balanced tires, which of course didn't fix it. The other day while doing an oil change I just got under and started man handling the drive shaft. I can hear a...
  8. Would I be okay towing this RV?

    I really haven't checked. I usually only go to one of two camp grounds. One 35 miles north and one 35 miles south, so range isn't an issue for me. The exploring America doesn't happen for another 5 years when I retire. I'll likely be trading in for one last new truck at that time and I'll...
  9. Would I be okay towing this RV?

    There was a similar post a few months back and I mentioned needing a lower drop shank to get the truck ball height in line with the trailer coupler height to get the hitch weight distributed properly. It made a huge difference on my set up. I am towing a very similar dimension TT, my box is 27'...
  10. Ranger Q2 2020 Sales Grabs Firm Hold of 2nd Place in Midsize Segment

    I'm not in love with Nissan or defending them. I just had a very good experience. 161k miles @ trade. The ONLY issue I had was the rear axle vent getting plugged, causing the seals to leak. Dealer fixed it out of warranty because it was a known issue. I had zero rust or other issues other than...
  11. Ranger Q2 2020 Sales Grabs Firm Hold of 2nd Place in Midsize Segment

    I couldn't disagree more. I had a 2009 Frontier and it was an amazing truck. Not sure how the new engine/transmission combo are doing, but other than being 100 years old, they are a solid truck!!
  12. Rustproofing?

    Yep. I fluid film (with the 360* extension sprayer hose) inside my doors, inner bed sides, bumpers and inside the frame. I use the CRC marine coating for my frame sides and bottom. I don't bother with the aluminum front fenders or tailgate.
  13. Poor Paint Durability

    Finally found time to repair it. Duplicolor Oxford white can $9.99 and Duplicolor clear $10.49 and some RustOleum bedliner that I had in my garage. First I tried to just use filler primer, but it wouldn't fix the chips in the factory rock guard. I had done a complete repair otherwise, but wasn't...
  14. 2019 XLT sport 4x4 Iconic Silver for $36,622?

    No way!! I financed $37,500 for a 2019 XLT Sport FX4 w/302a last June!! That truck had a sticker of $40,080 and I paid a hair under $35,000 before tax and tags.
  15. New Ranger is turning heads - literally

    I am personally hoping the U.S. sales numbers stay around the 100k mark. I have had mine almost a year and it is still very much unique in my area. With the new F-150 coming and the highly anticipated Bronco, I think the Ranger will be a 90k-100k annual seller here in the states. On topic, yes...
  16. Towing 24 ft trailer

    You can easily tow that trailer safely. You could just as easily tow it unsafely. I have seen much smaller trailers, not even campers being towed unsafely. The thing I learned is get that tow ball even with the coupler as must for a starting point. A 3,560lb trailer probably has a 350-450 lb...
  17. First time towing a Travel Trailer (before i buy)

    One thing I forgot to mention, is that with my E2 hitch, the included factory shank did not have enough drop. When using weight distribution it is critical to get the ball height on your truck the same or as near possible to the coupler height of the trailer. Both being on level ground of...
  18. Incorrect connection to truck.

    Damn it!! I'm so stupid.....
  19. Incorrect connection to truck.

    The lights don't appear to be properly fastened to the roof?
  20. 2019 Ford Ranger Lariat tinted windows

    Had 20% on my F-150 and wife's Fusion. She was pulled over (for tint, no traffic violations) and fined. No warning. No "you have 30 days to take it off". Just a $165 fine. She was 42 with no criminal record and clean driving record (don't they "run" your plate?). I felt like it was just a d_ck...
