Having it garaged is one of the few ways to keep it from getting cosmetic damage.

Is the brown the truck's primer? It kind of looks like paint that rubbed off over the truck. Maybe it can be scrubbed off?

Wish I could have your attitude about it man. That's a healthy way to have a truck, and not increase your blood pressure over minor stuff. I Think because it is my first "new" vehicle purchase, I just care too much about every little scratch and ding.

Ouch! That one sounds tough dude. Right in the corner too? You going to try to sand/ respray?

They look great! Will definitely be picking some up. I have some door edge guards, so I hope that I can place the side moldings a bit closer to the front of the door w/o issues opening / closing. I'm guessing when I looked there was not a market for Ranger accessories, or they just didn't have...

I looked for body side moldings like crazy but couldn't find them! Where did you get those?!

Actually the Frontier is a nice truck, and is arguably Nissan's last somewhat reliable vehicle. The engine is tried and tested, and while its really outdated, they have worked out most of the major kinks. It is also going to be the cheapest V6 you will find in the mid size segment. I would prob...

How in the world does water etch clearcoat? I thought only highly acidic substances like bird droppings could do that over time! Is this because paint quality has continued to degrade over the years?

He is/was a dick, but what could I do man? An elderly retired guy in his early 70s and a veteran. He had been giving the apartment managers problems for years, but they couldn't kick him out. Apparently, he drove away other tenants who were living where I am now. He's the kind of guy who would...

Thank you! Yep, I do not have that package, definitely not. I basically just wanted a base truck with nicer looking wheels/rims. :)

Thanks! Yeah, then I think it may have never been there. I am certain I didn't buy that package.

Hi all, Recently (about a month ago) I took my truck to the dealership to have the oil changed, and I noticed (today) that I don't have a skid plate underneath my truck. I don't remember if I had one when I bought it, but I think I might have. I remember watching oil change videos for the...

If it makes you feel better, I've had a bunch of dings and minor damage since buying my 2019 Ranger last July. The first bit of damage I did was opening the door and accidentally hitting a tree with the door edge. This caused the paint along the edges of the door to be quite damaged (about 1.5...

Hi all, Was just wondering if this is how the truck was designed, or if mine is faulty. My weatherstripping comes off really easily from both of my door windows if I just pull on it a little bit. It seems to not be very "glued" in place. Is this supposed to be that way, or is it supposed to be...

Hi all, I should prob check my owners manual for this information, but I left it in my house 300 miles away >.< I'm wondering if the Ford Ranger has regular beams, or only high beams. I click the little headlight dile on the left side of the steering wheel twice in order to turn on the front...

This is going to sound bad but, I wanted a Supercab so that people didn't start begging me to drive everywhere. This way, if they want to go somewhere and want me to drive, then I know they REALLY need to go somewhere, because they have to fit in those uncomfortable seats.

I guess it just shows more because my truck is blue then? I did hear that darker colors make imperfections stick out more, especially those related to the clear coat.

I'm going to go ahead and disagree here lol ... only from experience with the paint on this truck. A day after posting this, I left the house to go on a short road trip (about 100 miles) for the day. That morning, I washed / waxed the truck using Meguiars Ceramic Wax Hybrid. . Everything looked...

Hi all, So, this is either a post on the uselessness of Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Wax, or a post detailing how delicate the paint is on these trucks. Long story short, last week I washed my truck, followed the instructions to use Meguiars Hybrid ceramic Wax, applied it (early morning to avoid any...

Hi all, I find myself in the unfortunate situation of having to pick what type of damage I want my truck to incur long-term given my living situation. I recently moved to an apartment in San Bernadino, and have found it quite difficult to keep my truck out of trouble. Given where I am, I have 3...
