Any chance what your experiencing is the auto start/stop? takes a minute to get used to the truck engine stopping and then starting each time you stop.
Finally picked this girl up yesterday. Loving it more each time I drive it. Everyone meet Cactus Jack (Jackie) . Haven’t started any mods yet, but will update here as I go.
Now, to dampener, or not to dampener….
Updated mods:
BAK hard rolling tonneau cover
Second skin sound deadner (ongoing)...
Nice looking truck! How is the base treating you? I’m hoping I don’t kick myself from walking away from my day2 reservation on the bronco. After driving a Big Bend at the dealer, I felt like the ranger was just a better fit and had all the creature comforts I’ve been missing.
Wow! Thanks for the update! We hear so much gloom and doom on this site that it’s hard not to get discouraged. I got word that mine was headed to the body shop for the spray in bed liner. Anyone know if this is the last step? Curious if trucks waiting on chips get sent to receive spray in liners.
Mine went into production on 11/13, but doesn’t show built yet. Estimated delivery is 12/11, but feels a little optimistic. Emailed the dealer and the only thing he said was he expected delivery 2nd week of Dec. I’m guessing he can see more than that. I’d like know if it was built at least.
Your blend date was Aug 12 ?? Mine says Nov 13 and I was thinking I’m on the downhill slide now (assuming I bypass dirt Mt.). Now I’m really starting to wonder. Was yours built, but now sitting?
I think the blend date is the actual day it’s supposed to be built on the line. Mine will be a 2021, so hopefully it gets here in 2021. If you order now, you will likely be getting a 2022.
Congrats, that thing looks killer. Against my original decision I went with cactus, but I’m kinda kicking myself after seeing this. I’m shocked this color isn’t more popular. I went with cactus because I wanted something different, but this red might actually be the unicorn tremor. Sweet ride!
Did you paint the nostrils on the grill, or is that vinyl also? I’m thinking about ditching the red accents and doing maybe green or purple against the cactus grey color. Did the wrap company make your tailgate and grill letters too?
I got a quote just for S+Gs on my outback. It was about 1k over the private party resell value on KBB. I usually try to sell myself but I can’t complain about that! Don’t even have to deal with people. Sign me up
Just emailed my dealer and he said I’m still showing a Nov 8 build date. Ford tracker shows 9/9 order confirmed. Got my VIN and build date 9/10.
I feel like that is way too optimistic compared to what a lot of y’all have dealt with recently. I guess if it really happens I just got really lucky...
Curious if you all can see your build date on the online tracker, or if you get that from your dealer. I have a VIN# but the scheduled build date my dealer gave me is Nov 8. Curious if mine is pushed out as well.
