  1. Blown transmission 2019…

    I guess the phones aren't ringing off the hook with complaints then.
  2. Fords new fix for Shudder for Ranger Tremor...

    By now the Beancounters would have handed out bonus' to the transmission shop for coming in under budget on costs if they were underfilling the trannies. I don't know much about auditing at Ford, but I am sure somewhere in the last few years the correlation between fluid used to the number of...
  3. Blown transmission 2019…

    I'm hoping Ford goes all in with hydrostatic drive. My John Deere has been operating flawlessly for over 30 years with an early model design.
  4. Blown transmission 2019…

    One thing to note, is that statistical significance, and target failure rates are beyond gut feelings, hunches and general dark thoughts. Facts simply be facts. When you're the statistical number value being tabulated, it may seem through tunnel vision that everyone around you has the same...
  5. 2021 Taco

    I don't know why you're so hung up on it, but if it helps you sleep at night its a Rav4.
  6. An actual improvement to the 2023 ranger over the previous ones.

    You all think this is an improvement, but the '19s have unlimited miles on oil changes because everything in the engine is coated in some space molecule found on Mars. We don't have to worry about screws, bolts or push pins as we have no need to change oil. We smell it every few thousand miles...
  7. Say It Ain’t So

    Right now electric cars are on my radar, but in a very limited scope. Pricing is clearly a limiting factor, as well as range. pretty common concerns from most people. I like that there is many options available now. But the longevity of these cars/trucks has me holding off on any plans to add an...
  8. 2021 Taco

    Her update after a couple days, is they love it. they feel they paid a fair price, and its leaps and bounds more capable than their SUV. And the dog loves it too. I asked about the seats position and they said neither of them find it uncomfortable. Perhaps they already have seat jackers? I told...
  9. Turn off adaptive transmission process!

    So now we wait and see if there is any long term detriment as the transmission continues to wear and do transmission things. Without the ability to bandaid itself, I'm curious whether it'll be a fatal mistake or just act like any other dumb transmission from years gone by. Reading your last...
  10. 2021 Taco

    I'll find out more today hopefully, but they pulled the trigger yesterday and bought it. Promptly loaded it up and headed camping for the night. They didn't waste any time. Sounds like a number of their friends already live the taco life, so they obviously know what they are getting into.
  11. 2021 Taco

    You can stop. I'm not trying to block them or give alternatives. You don't need to either. I asked about fair pricing since I am not up to speed on used Taco's, not on how much coin they can sink into their SUV to make it someone else's dream.
  12. 2021 Taco

    avid tent campers. So its an upgrade in many ways. Their current SUV will only take them so far down logging roads and up creek beds. Add in the dog, and their gear, a pickup suits their lifestyle better than an SUV.
  13. 2021 Taco

    I just want to make sure on the price. I know its not my place to beat the taco down, it does that well enough on its own. But if its checking her boxes, including price, then that's all I need to know. They're offering it to her $7000cdn less than what they plan on putting it on the lot for...
  14. 2021 Taco

    Shes been hooked on a Taco for as long as I can remember. Its her dream truck. Where ever it went wrong in her upbringing, I just don't know. But I have always learned, support your loved ones, right or wrong. If I feel the need to argue about the qualities of a Taco, I can always come here for...
  15. Backup camera starting to fail

    Considering that Ford had a big recall on cameras for other models....this doesn't surprise me at all. fastest race to the bottom ever, and suppliers hold many of the cards for it.
  16. 2021 Taco

    My Daughter and her Fiance and in the market for a truck. This is available at the Ram dealer she works at. Traded in on a big bad boy Ram. 19000km, 2021, warranty remaining. Her price will be 48K as a dealer employee. All taco jokes and ribbing aside, good deal? Too far for me to travel to...
  17. Driveshaft center support bearing

    If mines ever gets the dreaded squeak, i'll be sure to look you up. 69K km's and still going strong. No abnormalities.
  18. Windshield Spray Nozzle

    I dont think so. most likely the culprit is a bad installation, or a piece of junk in the nozzle.
  19. Driveshaft center support bearing

    Why didn't you let warranty take care of it, then sell the new shaft for a few hundred bucks and offset the cost of buying the one piece? You could have had some free cash to spend on more mods. Work smarter, not harder. ????
  20. Kind of a new owner

    You said it was a work truck. That would negate the need for a damper. But then you said government inspector, and it now became a necessity.
