Obviously tent camping is far cheaper- that's not my issue. My issue is the function of my equipment. Sure I could buy another tent, but if I'm being completely honest I'm not looking forward to spending another weekend in the mountains cold and wet because my fabric tent failed me. I've done...

Oh man I am so ready to move on to teardrop camping! On my last trip I woke up to cold water dripping on my face and a nice pool around my air mattress cause the rainfly split just above me. Shit like that just doesn't happen with a fiberglass roof.

Yeah, definitely buy the cheapest Jeep Cherokee you can find if you want to go rock crawling. Rock crawling will destroy your truck so IMO it's not for nice, new vehicles lol And yeah, the Ranger turned out to be a pretty well rounded truck

Any of the WMAs in the Withlacoochee forest have some solid trails. Citrus WMA in Inverness is the best though.

Most people that have opinions on this sort of thing severely over-estimate what you need to go off-roading. It's amazing how much money people dump into their trucks only to face obstacles that can be cleared by almost any 4x4 pickup. The stock FX4 is pretty good at keeping traction and handles...

Not sure this is feasible with the factory hitch option. From info on a few other threads, I don't think you can pull the OEM hitch without also losing the rear bumper

Just go to the nearest ford dealer and get the works package. It's totally worth it over DIY. I've done my own maintenance for years, but I have not touched this truck after learning how far $50 gets you at the Quicklane service center. I have the convenience of being able to work remotely from...

I would still go to the dealer for service after the warranty is up just for the cost alone! You get the Ford motorcraft parts and fluids with tire rotation and inspection for $50. I couldn't possibly do it myself for that time and money. Repairs might not be so cost effective, but it's worth it...

It would have been cool to have another truck to wheel with! Wanted to go to Bunce School Road, but my buddy didn't want to scratch his TRD Pro and I didn't want to ride it alone.

Drove from Florida to Colorado and back last month, still no problems

The best option is to go to your nearest dealer and get the works package. Normally I do my own oil changes, but my local dealer does the oil, oil filter, tire rotation, and tops off the fluids for $50! I don't know about pricing local to you, but I can't do it myself for cheaper than that!

Press that tow/haul mode button for the best throttle response available on this transmission

Tailgate too heavy for you?

It seems to me that many people reviewing trucks and complaining about "bouncing" are not approaching the vehicle with the right frame of mind. Car reviewers will always exaggerate any perceived negatives and you simply cannot expect sedan performance out of a pickup truck. If you have ever...

The answer to this kind of question will only ever be "It depends" . A certain vehicle with a certain set of wheels and tires will behave a certain way at certain speeds. Replacing one wheel with a spare that is approximately the same may change this behavior in a way that is less...

Oil specifications are not so rigid and can be deviated from - especially in extreme environments - with relative impunity if oil changes are performed accordingly. For example, the difference between 5W-30 and 0W-30 in Florida is irrelevant and your engine will be fine as long as you operate...

I had to use my spare the other day. At first glance it was a Hankook Dynapro just like the other four. Cool, right? NOPE. As I loaded the punctured tire into the bed, I had to take a second glance at the spare - It was NOT the same tire. It was the same size, but the actual tread pattern was...

- Haven't even thought about the angle of the sync 3 screen - Was seriously considering an F-150, but ultimately decided on the Ranger because full size trucks are just too damn big. If you really look at the Ranger, it is still a pretty big vehicle. Ponying up for an F-150 with FX4 and the tow...
