Having had trailer sway control activate on me when towing a U-Haul trailer(trailer only had surge brakes, and was prone to wobbles above 70mph, no brake controller installed as I don't tow often enough) it brakes individual wheels using the abs system. If the sway is bad enough, it will also...
Good to know! They are predicting the first snow of the season for tonight, so I will see if I get the chance to give it a go. I was thinking about changing over to another style of rim once the lease is up anyway, so the packed snow doesn't bother me. If you turn the parking sensors off via the...
After just having towed a loaded uhaul trailer most the way across the country and hitting 12k miles on the odo, can confirm. Great truck no regrets so far. I do agree that there is a transmission learning period, but mine sorted itself out after about 500 miles. And it's not uncomfortable to...

Living in California's central valley with some of the worst air quality in the US, can confirm having recirculation stay on would be a useful feature, especially on the days with heavy wildfire smoke. The ranger is also the first vehicle I've had where it turns itself off. Because the air here...
I think the best implementation of blind spot monitoring I saw was in my friends decently new Honda Accord. When you turned your signal on it would display a camera view of your blind spot on either the center screen or the gauge cluster depending on how you had it set. This was in addition to...
Dunno if anyone has posted this, but I use a Milwaukee M18 compressor. https://www.milwaukeetool.com/Products/Power-Tools/Woodworking/Compressors/2840-20
Never had any issues with it to fill up tires after off roading. Can run small air tools as well if the need arises. I just have a charger...
First aid kit, spare ratchet straps, jumper cables, some tools etc. Currently using these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B08B3FQCG2?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title
but even when they are tight to the seat back they bulge out a ways so trying to find other cubbies to put things and keep...
Hi all, currently leasing my ranger so I don't want to do anything I can't undo. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get more internal storage? I thought about the idea of removing rear seats like I saw elsewhere, but I do have passengers from time to time. Anyway to expand the capacity of the...
Rotopax mounted via builtright panel, or via putco front panel. Don't have the panels yet so can't take pictures, but I'm sure a few others have the same.

Thanks for all the replies! It sounds like I should be ok to get through at least this winter, with the long term solution being winter tires with steelies like I used to have on my crown Vic. Vic used to have hakkapelitas and they performed very well for the Pennsylvania winter. Will likely...
Hi all,
Gonna be moving to Wisconsin soon and as it's approaching November, I was wondering what people's thoughts were on the Tremor in the snow on stock tires? Any accessories that might help out? Originally from Pennsylvania so not 100 percent new to winter, but am new to driving a truck in...
Having driven both the tremor and fx4, I went with tremor for a few reasons. The tremor sits a bit higher up with the fox shocks underneath, and I found that in the standard fx4 I just felt a little bit to level with some of the other SUVs around me. It's only about an inch different but the day...
