  1. Feeding cable behind headliner for rear dash cam?

    You can just pull the weatherstriping around the doors, and I fished the wires that way. When done, just push the weatherstriping back in place. easy peasy.
  2. 2023 Ranger (Lariat,XF4) Leveling Kit

    ok, so I have to ask. Leveling kits. only visually asthetic? not really anything more? if they come with control arms/front struts, you get the front end aligned as well, right? is doing this also hard on the front driveline? (front axle/driveshaft) because the angle is changed? I'm...
  3. Factory overhead console with upfitter switches.

    looks like we'd need the whole overhead console w/switches, then a wiring harness adapter to reroute the existing switches to the headliner. If they use (as I suspect) small gauge wiring, soldering the wires together is going to be a PITA, and we'd need to acquire a cap to cover the dash where...
  4. Remote start finding

    Can't add anything not already added, but hope your recovery is faster than mine was. They got it all, and the scars healed ok, and there's no need for chemo or radiation for her, but my plumbing is messed up and trying to learn a new normal
  5. Ford Ranger Sales Down

    I've noticed a lack of Rangers in inventory on the lot of a nearby Ford dealer since the pandemic, and have been looking for "the one" to pull the trigger on, to the point where I was taking a road trip for a week out of state, and I staked out dealers along the route to see what they had on...
  6. How to use Audio unit's Hard Disk Drive Media Storage?

    Fun fact! The "HD" in HD Radio does not stand for hi- definition, it stands for "hybrid digital", which is roughly how they can get 3 or so different signals from one frequency Learned that from my Radio Shack days working with an engineer who specialized in that stuff
  7. Battery, BMS , charging questions?

    so here's a stupid question... does the battery blanket actually do anything? From the ones I've seen, they appear too thin to actually insulate anything, add to that, the batteries are installed under the hood, which is all but exposed to the temperatures all the time anyway, I can't see...
  8. New key fob

    I saw that too... (corrected as noted).... do they mean keyless start? My XLT has keyless entry. also, if they truck has a pushbutton start, how are you supposed to turn the key when there isn't an ignition switch to turn it in?
  9. Another Close Call

    www.ranger5g.com, based on how my wallet has been getting raped since I joined here ;-)
  10. Reliability and Adaptive Cruise?

    Drive down I-95, anywhere between Massachusetts and Virginia, you'll be surprised by how small of a space people need to think they fit. that all being said, my Ranger is the 2nd vehicle I've had with adaptive cruise (both Fords), and it works without a significant complaint. (when a car cuts...
  11. New '23 SC - need tow package

    nah, I used my Ford points online, got a couple goodies for my p'up. Just had to pay for shipping. If you have to buy something, definitely reach out to Ben at Levittown, he was a big help when I was looking for a couple obscure items.
  12. Tire Pressure Menu

    if someone were to come up to me on the street and ask me that, I'd comment something along the lines of "Don't know why, I don't remember being invited to the meeting where they laid that out", but yeah, I also agree with you. It must be another one of Ford's better ideas. That being said, for...
  13. Wiring Path

    would it work for you to pull the weatherstripping, run the wire down the channel there, then fish it back to the OBDII port?
  14. Backup Camera with Camper

    The camera itself should work as intended but I suspect the parking assist features won't work, unless the sensors in the back of your truck will have a clear view of what's behind you. Depending on how much the camper hangs over the back of your truck, distances to objects (warning beeps)...
  15. Where’s your dog?

    here's when he was turned in to rescue (and he eventually became a failed foster) back in 2010, and he looked more like how he's supposed to look (he really hates getting groomed, and at 13 years old, I don't want to upset him more than necessary)
  16. Where’s your dog?

    I find it interesting when people ask if Jeb is a miniature Airedale, he's my redneck Welsh -- he's a double-wide. Normal Welsh weigh in the low 20's, he's 42lbs, and there's absolutely nothing about him which makes me think he's a small Airehead. He's serious, stubborn, and a natural born...
  17. Why don't we have actual small trucks any more? Best deep dive I've seen.

    if we're taking requests, how about a modern small (*cough*cough*) truck? (ok, Ranger? Colorado?) in between the two?
  18. Behind Grill Light Bar Recommendations

    My question to you is, does the grill block the output of the light bar? does the yellow bar block any (if you have 'em) of the front facing sensors (for parking, etc)? Thanks!
  19. Rear Seat Platform

    looks nicely done, I may be copying this, thank you!
  20. What if ....

    I kind of like that it's there on mine... gives me a place to hold the door to close it without leaving fingerprints
