  1. Question on amount of oil

    I just bring 6 quarts to my mechanic and he never mentions that he had to add extra. I check it regularly and all is fine, very little fuel smell even!
  2. Storm damage to roof

    Geez, if I file a claim each time I may go broke from paying all the deductibles. ? Going to wash it this weekend and get a better look. The paint doesn’t looked chipped but there is a mark on it. I’m terrible with touch up paint anyway…fingers crossed I can leave it as is.
  3. Storm damage to roof

    We had a nasty storm roll through 2 days ago and just now noticed some minor roof damage. There were branches all over my truck and actually lucky the only damage is what is shown on the pictures. Looks as if the end of a branch hit the roof causing the small dent. You can see it but hard to...
  4. 91 No Ethanol vs. 93 E10 Gas

    The local Sheetz (non branded but I believe fresh non branded gas is just fine) has 93 E10 and 90 ethanol free. I alternate tank fulls. Seems okay! On a road trip I ran a tank of Buc-ees 93 ethanol free and it was like my truck drank a 6 pack of Red Bull…it felt so powerful and zippy!
  5. Sport Mode

    I’ve been using sport mode more and more. Can I put it in sport mode from the get go or is it best to wait until the transmission warms up a bit?
  6. Axle housing gasket confirmation

    Hi, looking to confirm that part KB3Z-4036-A will work for a rear differential with the electronic locking rear. Levittown parts, unless I read it wrong, makes it sound like it is not for a rear diff with the electronic locking. I do have the same question into them, just want to see if I can...
  7. What did you receive in the mail today for your Ranger?

    I bought the filter at Advance Auto, but the oil came from Amsoil…it’s the newly reformatted XL Boosted which I currently have in my truck.
  8. Boss PBL10241 oil filter inlet holes

    Decided to buy a Boss PBL10241 filter for next oil change. I heard they are beefy and yes they are. So much so I need a protein shake after lifting one. ? Anyway, in the auto parts store they had a few and I have a habit of looking at a few in case I see one damaged. All but one of them have...
  9. Safe to leave hitch receiver installed?

    Never owned a truck before so not sure of the protocol but is it okay to leave a hitch receiver in? The one shown I’m actually going to use as a resistance band anchor for exercises (I travel to sites for workouts and train others). I do have a locking pin for it to prevent theft.
  10. Turn off adaptive transmission process!

    I’ve notice that the only issues with my transmission are when it’s about to shift in the next gear but I have to let off the gas because the idiots in front of me decide to slow down for whatever reason for no apparent reason. My truck loves to run and hates stop and go traffic as well. Also...
  11. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    Shackle hitch receiver. It’s really to be used to make an anchor point to use resistance bands for outdoor workouts. ?
  12. What oil will you be running after your 1st oil change?

    Wanted to add also that I may try a Wix XP or Purolator Boss filter next time.
  13. What oil will you be running after your 1st oil change?

    Last 2 changes were Amsoil OE, latest is XL Boosted. Feels “thicker” than the OE but I swear the temp gauge runs one notch lower. I dumped the Motorcraft Synthetic Blend at 880 miles. I was thinking on putting that back in next change just for kicks to see how it feels on a full 4000 mile run...
  14. Extended warranty

    When I bought my ranger (coming up on a year ownership!) I bought through the dealer an extended warranty plan that changes the 3 year 36,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty to match the drivetrain warranty. It also includes the wheels for the same time frame. I’m getting a lot of emails from...
  15. EGO Leaf Blower what CFM?

    Lowe’s has them on sale. The 670 CFM looks like a great deal but should I get the 765 CFM? 765 won’t damage trim, gaskets, etc?
  16. Rain

    Raining in NC on and off since Monday. We had such a nasty thunderstorm on Monday that the outdoor seating area umbrellas were blown into employee parking lots and pin balling off cars. Good thing I’m a contractor and I park elsewhere. On a side note I think my truck doesn’t want to get washed...
  17. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    Added several paracord bracelets around the shifter.
  18. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    Won Sonic at Dollywood and now he’s buckled in the backseat center as my co-pilot. ?
  19. “Curved” roof rail

    Thanks for the info! I just went out and took another look and I swear it is now totally flat! Maybe heat will make it expand and contract?
