  1. Support group for those waiting for their MY23 Ranger

    Congratulations on the new Ranger. Hope your experience goes well. I ordered my Super Cab RWD XLT on 20 October and still have not received a build date. Dealer estimated 6 months or more. I fear my issue might be that because I ordered a truck with two uncommon configurations, RWD and Super...

    Hey, talk about timing, I just this evening got my second "dear John" letter from Ford lamenting how long it is tacking and once again reinforcing how sorry they are that 90 days have passed since my order was accepted. The incredible price increases of basic, average day to day vehicles is a...

    Three months into this process, hoping to get a build date soon...... or should I be more realistic and say eventually. I have the luxury of be being able to wait 6 months or so, however what if, May God Forbid, I had major failure or worse a total loss accident to my vehicle. People just can't...
  4. Base model radio replacement?

    If Crutchfield says it can't be done, it can't be done. Their core business depends heavily on upgrading auto audio systems and I can imagine they would put a lot of R and D into making this work. One thing you can look into is upgrading the stock Ford speakers to decent quality aftermarket...

    I ordered my Supercab 2wd XLT with the 301 package on 10/20. Got my confirmation in less than 24 hours. At 45 days out I got the " we know it is taking too long" Dear John letter. And since then nothing either. I thought I might at least get a Happy Holidays email from the dealer/sales rep...
  6. Let's see those hood protectors & bug deflectors on your Ranger!

    Thanks, nice video. After reading some reviews on the difficulty of installing that style of deflector, you have pretty much sold me on the this type of mounting. You made it look easy and I just really trust this method a lot more than double sided tape.

    That was my sales rep's pitch. His personal vehicle was a CG Maverick. I remarked how it looked better than I expected, then he rubbed his hand across it and exclaimed that it still looks great when it is covered in dirt. Being that I spend most weekends during the summer at a dirt race track...

    Awesome !!!! The thousand dollar upcharge was hard to justify, so I went with Cactus Gray. After seeing your post, I think the thousand dollars was well spent ! Congratulations, what a beauty.
  9. When is the latest date I can order a 23 Ranger?

    We might be brothers; I also have a rock solid 2002 Ranger that I hate part with after 18 years. However as I understand it, 2023 looks like the last call for Super Cabs. As a class A shade tree mechanic I can confirm your apprehensions about parts availability becoming an issue. I have had to...

    My dealer has a great reputation, this is my first time dealing with them, and they recognize that I drove past 2 other Ford dealers to do business with them. That said, my sales rep has spent a lot of time with me and we can "talk". He is a young guy and seems to be rather up front. And he...

    When I ordered my 2023 Super Cab XLT 2wd High Package the dealer told me their best guess was 6 to 9 months. I knew that when I wrote the deposit check , but it is going to be a long 6 to 9 months !
  12. How far is out of gas ?

    On advice from one of the savviest auto technicians I know I try to never let my tank get under the 1/4 mark. With the fuel pumps now located inside the fuel tank, the pumps use the gas to dissipate heat. Constantly running the tank down low can shorten the life of the pump. Jack says that...

    Ordered my 2023 xlt with the 302A package October 20 just before 11 AM. Got my order confirmed from Ford by 8:30 AM the next morning. Was told 6 to 9 months for delivery by my sales rep. Got my fingers crossed on this one.
