Those that got DECKED! Did you notice any difference in gas mileage from the increased load in your bed? Doesn't the DECKED system weigh around 200 pounds empty? The decked system looks like it covers the tie downs toward the bottom of the bed. Do you still have tie downs with the DECKED...
I just got the Redarc Tow Pro Elite Controller installed and I am wondering if there is a test device I can use to make sure the controller is working properly. I'd like to make sure everything is good before I go pickup a trailer. Thanks, John
I just had my Ranger in the shop so get the Brake Controller install and noticed my drivers side Auto Up/Auto Down feature isn't working. I know they had to disconnect the battery to perform the installation. Is there a configuration or something I need to do to make Auto Up / Auto Down work...
Is there anyway to see if the Tow Pro Elite is operating/installed correctly short of connecting a trailer? Should it be lit up at all when nothing is attached? Thanks, John
I was the first Tow Pro Elite install at Geweke Ford in Yuba City. It took them about 5 hours, but I got the reduced rate they quoted me up front. Service writer said they will probably quote 3 hours for the next installation.
6'5" 38" inseam. I was amazed I fit!!! Make sure you get the fully adjustable seats. Tilting the seat pan down in the back and up in the front makes it more comfortable.
Anyone know what a Fuel Induction and Throttle Body Cleaning Service is???

I'm at 8000 miles and I just got a flat tire.
I want to get the flat tire repaired use it as a spare and use my factory spare tire on the vehicle. Can I do that or is 8000 miles already too much wear on a tire to put a new tire on?
Also curious, do the tires wear evenly or does one or two...
Got the power train fault this morning. Monkey wrench on the display. What does it take to clear the wrench and get it to test the systems again? Thanks, John
Update: Drove my other vehicle to work. Go home started up the Ranger and once again all is good in the world!
What are people paying to have the dealer install this unit?
I already have my part. Checked with a dealer here in California and they want 3 hours at $175 an hour. $525 USD.
First quoted me 2 hours, then when I said I was going to use the dealerships 20% Off coupon he said 3 hours!

So is that without a sliding rear window? It looks to me (hope I'm wrong) that the sliding window blocks the headliner from coming down?
Love the picture!! Thanks, John
Phil,
Appreciate the input. I want to be fully compliant with the instructions. If the instructions get updated I'll give that a try. You would think everyone would benefit from the easier solution. John
It still remains unclear to me how to fish the wires up by the high brake light and make the connection above the headliner. If anyone can describe how to do it or provide pictures that would be greatly appreciated. I've got the XLT Crew with the sliding back window.
I'm not crazy about having trail control speed on the steering wheel. I'm curious if any has moved it to a knob somewhere on the dash. I hate to say it but I like the way the Tacoma uses a knob.
My controller arrived today. If Ford installs it do I go to Service or Body Shop? Seems like the majority of the installation is removing/replacing dash, trim, and headliner? Do you remove the headliner to get to the upper brake light or do you fish the wires through? Also does it matter if...
