  1. Gonna pass on the Ranger... for a house

    I feel very fortunate to have a pension, but will have to pay the full ride for the employer insurance - $600/mo. However, even at that price I would be an idiot not to keep it. Currently it is $200 deductible/$800 out-of-pocket per year for single coverage.
  2. Gonna pass on the Ranger... for a house

    4 more payments on my mortgage. My Ranger will then be the only debt I have. I could retire from my municipal job now, but my pension would be reduced so I would be $1200 in the hole every month. I need to work until 1/4/2024 to get a full pension, that would give me 35 yrs of service.
  3. Headlight Switch Bling

    Sorry for the photo. It was dark outside when I did the install, so I had to use the flash to take the picture. I have had this same trim piece on my '15 Escape for 4+ years. I think it just adds a little something to a dull area of th dash.
  4. Fits in garage....barely

    I have a 24x30 garage with doors that are 16' & 9'. The vehicles use the 16' door - '19 Ranger and '15 Escape. I have a laser parking aid on the ceiling. I had to readjust the one for the Ranger from the '06 Ranger setting. Still learning how to line up the hood with the service door to get...
  5. Is it a mistake to not take the 4WD option?

    Mississippi River museum is a great place visit for all ages. It is on the river front in Dubuque IA next to the Diamond Jo casino.
  6. Headlight Switch Bling

    No. This is taped on top of the bezel. It is razor thin, so it is flush with the edges of the buttons.
  7. 147 miles and CEL already

    S So true. I have 5 Ford dealers within a 10 mile radius of my home. But, I deal with one that is 20 miles from home because of the service before and after the sale, whether it is a new or used vehicle.
  8. Headlight Switch Bling

    I put this on my headlight switch last night. It is the same one I ordered for my '15 Escape. It is polished stainless. Before: After: Put a little bling on the dash for a little money!
  9. Is it a mistake to not take the 4WD option?

    I use to think that 4WD was a waste living in a urban area in west central Illinois even in winter. 4WD was for those that lived out in "farm" country. However, in the last few years, winter snowfalls have changed my mind. Even with 140# of sand in the bed of my '06 Ranger FX4, the back wheels...
  10. AVS Bug Deflector (photo)

    They are the vinyl ones from TVD. I also got copper ones for my magnetic grille. Everybody thinks both look good on the truck. Both sets went on fairly easily. Hardest letter to install was the E. Still waiting to hear from Ford on my warranty paint claim for a spot on the bed floor. Until...
  11. Running tally of VIN #, order date and build date by Ranger5G member (2019 MY)

    Ordered 3/23, built 6/25, delivered to dealership 7/7, home 7/18. I left on a week long trip expecting delivery to be 7/15 (the Mon after I returned) and got a text saying it had showed up a week early. Went to install the bed liner on 7/20 and found this paint defect on the bed floor near...

    Congrats on getting your truck. You probably saw my Saber Lariat when you picked yours up. I was on a fishing trip when Russell texted me that they had been delivered. Will be picking it up tomorrow after work.
  14. Lower front grill opening - mesh?

    Been mulling this over myself. I am thinking of ordering some plastic mesh from EBay and seeing what I can come up with. I haven't been able to advance the idea since I don't have my truck yet. That should be rectified tomorrow. It has the adaptive cruise.
  15. Q3 2019 Ford Ranger Discounts & Cash Incentives

    Mine was one of 3 Rangers delivered to the dealership yesterday. However, due to my work schedule this week, I won't be able to pick it up til next week. Will miss out on 1.9%+$1000 rebate that ends today in my area. Hoping something comes out between now and then.
  16. Running tally of VIN #, order date and build date by Ranger5G member (2019 MY)

    Thanks for the info and sorry to have bothered you with it. Got a text this morning from my salesman that it was there. I should have been more patient. Thanks again.

    @Pioneer74 Can you check on mine? 1fter4fh5kla70188. Thanks.
  18. How many miles on your Ranger at delivery ?

    My '15 Escape (ordered out) had 1 mile on odo When my dealer got their first Ranger it had 1 mile on the odo straight off the delivery truck. I put 10 on it test driving.☺
  19. Hot Wheels Ranger Raptor

    I bet that's easier than finding Saber.
  20. Ecoboost Requires Warmup Before Driving?

    I have the 2.0 Eco in my '15 Escape. Never made any effort to warm it up. No issues so far. Only has 17,600 miles on it, but they are mostly in town short hops.
