@jflogerzi - I wish that were the case but it sounds like Ford is going all-in on their "Model T Moment". https://fordauthority.com/2025/03/ford-ranger-phev-wont-be-offered-in-america-report/ Despite the false start it seems they're still hell-bent on EV's...

The rig is looking good Grumpy!

Glad you joined us Mick! Awesome Wildtrak. It looks great with those wheels.

The good news for you is it sounds like you're near the upper limit of "Good" MPG in this truck. I'd even go so far as saying dang near great MPG. Personally in my 4x4 with fairly mixed city/highway driving in a major metro area I'm averaging about 22 MPG.

Lenny one thing I don't think I've seen you post, (apologies if you have,) what MPG are you averaging? I'm more curious about your numbers when you aren't towing a trailer. Just asking because "normal" is in the low 20's / high teens for mixed city/highway driving. We've had people come on...

Hey Colin, I've looked at your list on the other thread and didn't see anything related to the EGR valve. Have you already inspected this for gunk? I'm going to be straight with you - I've not got the foggiest idea and I'm googling common issues with the 3.2 diesel and throttle surge. Not very...

This is a very moving photo and based on the perceived age of the photo I'm willing to bet it doesn't account for the hundreds of first responders that have passed in these last 24 years due to exposure to environmental hazards at ground zero. RIP to those mortal heroes and all those lost -...

Our engine has an open deck design with the cut coolant passages fully surrounding the cylinder bores. I've seen cracks form in the cylinder walls in other open deck designs, granted, in my personal experience this is with sports car engines. Unfortunately I believe a cracked cylinder wall is...

The only thing you didn't list is a decibel limit type alarm (sound activated,) but that is just a can of worms in my opinion compared to a motion based system. I think your best bet is mounting some motion sensors because a Ring type system will be internet dependent and it would suck to lose...

I was gonna say - in a world where people manage to get Diesel in their Petrol tanks I wouldn't beat yourself up too much!

@jovey70 - looks like you've got 4 LH Inners where you should have one of each: LH & RH Inner, LH & RH Outer

This is great advice, and I'll add; think about the types of trails you'd like to ride and research their policy on e-bikes and which types are allowed. I've seen more and more e-bike bans in the SW states due to their propensity to chew the trail up. They're heavier and torque-ier.

Saturday morning we ran out for some breakfast pastries and got the "low battery - remote functions disabled" message with the tinny-sounding chimes and I thought, "Well, maybe I had better plan for a new battery next weekend." Battery had other plans! Yesterday morning nothing but a click. So...

Cactus Grey is a gorgeous color. Congrats! Hope it gives you 100's of thousands of miles.

September 2022 + build dates are said to have the corrected 10R80 transmission installed from the factory.

I've been here before and ultimately had to perform a master reset of my Sync 3 system via the settings menu. (It takes about 15 minutes and requires you to re-pair the phone to the FordPass app afterwards..) Before you do that try going into settings and remove your phone from the device list...

I'm pretty sure you're thinking of the Lariat Black Appearance grille that Benny posted. https://www.levittownfordparts.com/sku/mb3z-8c324-ba.html The Tremor grille is this same grille with Red accents, and the Splash edition has light orange - which you normally see on Tremor F-150's and...

One thing to consider with MPG Grumpaw is the Expedition weighs anywhere between 1,000 and 1,400 lbs more than the Ranger so it needs those 100 ponies!

What a surprise! Congrats Grumpaw. Glad you're sticking around for the fun.
