Any idea what you guys did to trigger that mailer? I have already signed up to receive coorespondence (email or whatever).

What is that smell?

I remember years ago when living in Virginia and had my 1999 Ford ranger...it was a rainy morning with pretty heavy traffic. On the wet tunnel down portion, traffic suddenly stopped dead. Traffic all around, a semi next to me furiously down shifting, cars behind me and a silver Mercedes in...

If it was me driving I would have had my attention further down the road and wouldn't have been surprised by the person in front getting cut-off. I would have recognized the situation way before and backed off. I know this because I frequently run in to these type situations. Recently, I was...

My thought was I wish I had that kind of disposal income, time, tools and space (and talent).

I was talking about this one: https://www.tfltruck.com/2019/02/real-world-2019-ford-ranger-fuel-economy-here-is-the-unexpected-result-after-a-1000-mile-road-trip-video/ The video title is: RANGER MPG SHOCKER Last paragraph: "After nearly 1,000 miles of measured highway travel and three...

@rangerdanger posted the article. Here is the exact quote: "We only managed 16 mpg during our boost-filled week with the Ranger. It's likely you'll do better." They are an enthusiast magazine and had their foot in it. What does one expect? Plenty of anecdotal evidence on this site supporting...

If I'm not mistaken, that's the furthest West Ford dealer :) Maui: Here is what's crazy, Valley Isle Motors is getting 88 and showing all in transit Oahu: between 3 dealers, 30 either here, in transit or ordered. Kauai: 1 here Big Island: Shows none (would have thought they'd have many). So in...

I have my Super Cab on order and was trying to resist even looking at one....didn't want to ruin the surprise but, while out today, I drove my my dealer just to see if they had a Ranger. They did. A black and a white pearl. Both Lariats. Went in and saw my salesman to see if I could sit it in...

That's the thing though, people don't understand the technology limits. That's not just my opinion, there is quite a bit of easily accessible research. It's quite possibly even worse. People unrealistically relying on technology (to be even more distracted) AND not developing proper driving...

Driving is a skill. Like *any* skill, one gets better through repetition and experiences. Adding in technologies like lane assist, lane warning, emergency braking, etc etc are making the new generations of drivers *less capable* (or...worse) If one gives themselves over to technology (and...

I suppose you are directing your comments at me. I would suggest that you reread my last two. Technologies are making us, as a whole worse drivers (talking skills). One can be bad but still get worse. What I did say is that we have decided not to hold drivers to a standard. Cant argue with...

Driving is a skill that requires people to use all their senses. That skill (should) refine and improve over time. More technology/sensors taking over those duties means people are no longer engaging those parts of the brain which means if they are ever in a vehicle without that technology they...

I agree with you and I am starting to think it is by design. The genie is out of the bottle at this point and I will be glad when the tech saves me or my wife from being rear-ended by some idiot not paying attention. As long as I can turn most if not all of it off, Im fine.

Wow. 84 months of payments. That does my head in. Spent my younger years building a ton of debt then finally around 39 dug myself completely out after years of juggling low introductory rate credit cards. I loathe making payments. If I am not offered somerting like 0.9% max 1.9% for 24 months...

I ordered mine back in early December. Recently received a VIN and this comment from my dealer: "I'll be sending a new up date as of the day of start up which is March 18." So hopefully that means the truck is getting built on the week of 3/18.

Great info from you and others using a Samsung S9 (I have one as well). AA is important so I'll be sure to keep this in mind once I finally take delivery.

That was initially my first choice. I was completely locked in, no way I was changing. Then when it got close to actually ordering, I started waffling and considered the Blue, Red, White, Magnetic but once it came down to making the call, i went with Magnetic.The only thing I'm personally...

Just talked to the salesman and after checking further, looks like a build date scheduled for the week of 3/18 so probably looking at having it in late April/early May.

No, nothing at all from Ford. Back in December, the salesperson said it could take 1-2 months. @kep's record may not be safe for long :-)
