After owning the truck for just over 3 months, I'll say I have no complaints about the drive. I took 2 relatives for a ride the other day and after about 10 minutes, they were impressed with how smooth the drive was - we were on county paved roads that aren't always real smooth. Gas mileage...
I have the sport package and I used the Charcoal Metallic from TVD decals. On the web site, the color looks pretty dark but on my truck, I think it matches closely to the sport appearance color. They do have a couple of other gray colors also.
Put the TVD vinyl letters on the other day. Charcoal metallic that comes close to matching the sport appearance package gray on the truck. I could have lived with black lettering but like this look better. The "wet method" installation was a fairly easy process.
Not trying to minimize your "wait" Floyd. But after waiting over 6 months for my truck, 6 weeks doesn't seem all that long to me. Granted I ordered in September and they didn't start making the truck until after Thanksgiving so really it was about a 4 month wait. I hear ya, the wait is tough...
Got factory running boards today - $399 plus tax. . In the box were the boards and a package of bolts. It took me 30-45 minutes to put them on by myself. The dealer wanted $300 to put them on so I saved that!
The CEL came on the day I drove it home (about 50 miles). I stopped at a friend's business to show the truck to someone and I parked on a side slant in the parking lot. When I took off the check engine light was on. When I got home, I shut the truck off for a while then needed to run an...
After ordering factory running boards from the dealer back in mid-March, they are being delivered tomorrow. They wanted $696 for the boards, installed. I asked about purchasing them for the $399 price that was listed on the Ford accessory sheet and the salesman said I could do that.
So I...
Yeah when I turn blinkers on the little clear upper square blinks yellow but I'm talking about the picture in the link in the first post in this thread by EcoRanger. And I've seen a number of posts on the forum with Rangers showing that tail light that lights up with that "yellow" pattern...
So what models have the yellow in the tail lights? I have the Sport 4x4 Lariat and there is no yellow in the tail lights. Thought maybe it came only with the FX 4x4 but on one of those pictures, the model was a Sport. Just curious, I really like the yellow color in the lights.
Good pictures, Bob. I like the blue and the tail gate lettering. If I hadn't had a number of blue vehicles through the years, I may have ordered that color instead of HPR but I really like the red also!
Good to see you got them that soon. Gonna check on mine tomorrow. Would like to see the pics and it says you have chrome tailgate letters.
Can you post a pic of that? Thanks.
I programmed mine by pressing the button on the garage unit (not a new unit) and then following the rest of the directions. And like a couple of others, I can open the garage door at least 100 ft. farther away then I could with the original garage door remote. Very satisfied with it.
Hey Bob Larimore, how long is it supposed to take to get your black factory running boards? I have a set ordered and dealer basically couldn't give me a time frame of when they might be in. Ordered over a month ago.
Mentioned earlier I hadn't seen another Ranger on the road but did yesterday. Also mentioned in another thread that I'd like to see the Sabre color in person and that's what this truck was. I've got the HPR color but really liked the Sabre color I saw yesterday!
Asked dealer today again about the 5 inch black factory running boards I ordered (should have ordered them when I ordered the truck). He talked to a rep today and he said Ford not yet ready to ship any black running boards. Only ones available at this time are the ones being installed on the...
