  1. Tuning!

    If you expect a tune to increase your gas mileage, then you need to do the math for payoff. At $5/gallon going from 20 to 25mpg you have to go between 16k and 17k miles. At $4/gal you need to go 20k miles. Im basing this off a tuner cost of $800. Knowing how I drive, I would end up using the...
  2. Curse Me For A Fool Livernois Tuner

    That's tough, any help from Livernois about why this is happening.
  3. E Bikes exploding

    In addition to the airplanes, i do own a homebuilt E-Bile. Carbon fiber, fat tire with Bafang BBSHD drivetrain. As far as batteries go, I only buy packs with sanyo cells. Only machine soldered, with a high end BMS. I've got 56v, 14AH pack and the motor is rated at 1000w. So I take it very...
  4. E Bikes exploding

    I remember when LiPos first came out and hit the RC airplane groups. The club rules we we had to charge the packs in a fireproof environment. Had a lot of fires at the beginning. Some guys ended up buying small safes.

  6. Taco down...how much do you think this recover cost?

    Standard Taco driver. Turns to his passenger and says, "hold my beer and watch this"
  7. Why order an FX4 package after reading this forum?

    This is one of those questions you can answer for yourself. What percentage of FX4 owners actually feel that parts must be replaced? I think it's probably about 1%. I wanted a tremor but I hate those suede seats. Does that mean I have to go out and put new seats in? I've put 30k miles on my...
  8. Ford extended warrantee?

    Call it what you want, scam, roulette, or blood money I'm too damn old to lay on the ground or under a dash board any more. I put multiple 5k mile road trips on in any given year. I don't want to be stuck in some.podunk town calling my credit card company to increase my credit.line to fix a car...
  9. Gas Prices Are Headed Back Up In February

    My view is that apparently gas prices aren't high enough. I usually run about 5-7 mph over posted. However, the number of full size trucks and SUVs passing me at 80+ mph makes me think they value time over cost. As the pain at the pump increases I'll be interested to see if the number of these...
  10. How to avoid a divorce?

    After 41 years of marriage I'm not worried about divorce. But I have come home with multiple cars without first asking permission. I've always been willing to take the punishment for whatever "mistake" I've made as long as I get what I wanted in the end. It hasn't always made the...
  11. Tow longevity

    Tell your co-worker it's time he went back to engineering school. Today's 4 bangers are not the same units from a 1974 pinto. Not are today's automatics to be confused with the old 2 speed powerglides. I tow heavy in the steep hill of west central Virginia. I've shown the pic before, but here...
  12. If you are thinking about trading your ranger in, don't

    I also thought about the Nissan, but it's lack of towing ability killed that deal. My 2021 FX4 doesn't seem to suffer from the shocks as bad as everyone else's and it pulls my boat without complaint. I'll stick with it until the 2024 units come out with a hybrid.
  13. 2022 Lariat Windshield Replacement

    The article only said the wiper de-ice option was deleted. It didn't say anything about the camera heating element. I'd be interested to know if it's still there as I have a MY21 Lariat.
  14. Maryland bak mx4 w TS rails

    Do any time downs come with the track?
  15. Carbon Tremor for Sale in Tampa

    That is the trick I was looking for when I goty Lariat FX4 earlier this year. I'll live with what I've got for that price.
  16. Why did you pick the Ranger over the Tacoma?

    Only the ranger and the Colorado baby Duramax were rated to pull this beast. I was already getting out of a diesel and was tired of the $5/gal + DEF.
  17. Help! Red Squirrel Nests in Ranger

    I looked under my rear seat last week to get my moving blanket out. I found a mouse had decided that it was a great nesting spot this is a daily driven vehicle, so he was a cheeky bloke So now, I keep one of the green mouse poison traps in mine, under the rear seat, but under the hood would...
  18. What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

    Did an 800 mole drive from Mobile Al home to Virginia. I hate driving through Atlanta, especially with the E-bikes hanging off the back.
  19. Bad BCM (or so I'm told) and a nightmarish customer experience

    I was one of this land Rover customers. A 2 month wait just for an oil change. $660 rear brake services and on and on. Bought the ranger for it's similar towing capacity and not diesel. Now it's a 2 week wait for an oil change and we will see how my first warranty repair goes.
  20. Ford licensed bed lamps for 5G Ranger

    I'll say it looks a little complicated, but very doable. I don't see why you couldn't do all of it yourself. If you are concerned about getting the holes drilled correctly, I recommend doing a couple of test drillings on scrap sheet metal on your bench. It looks like all the wire routing is...
