  1. my right foot keeps hitting something when switching from gas to brake and i know what it is- how to fix?

    i've noticed on more than one occasion, when transitioning from gas to brake pedal, my big foot hangs up on something. i finally looked under there and the only thing that can remotely cause this is a heater vent that's right there. it moves some when wiggled. so it probably jsut snaps off...
  2. Why is my MPG so "poor"?

    i own a 2021 XL FX4 stock EXCEPT i put on cooper discoverer at-4s tires. same exact size as stock. They do weigh 5lbs more per tire than stock. I have 6500 miles. It seems on a long road trip of 200 miles, the best i can get is 23 mpg. This is going 55-70mph and most of those miles 67 mph...
  3. rear leaf springs misaligned- 2021 fx4 3900 miles- normal?

    so i have the thunk coming to a stop and the thunk leaving from a stop that everyone says is slip spline lube. in my searches i see various posts on various car forums/groups about axle wrap causing something similiar. i thought back to when i owned an 88 big bronco and i had the same thing...

    so i got my brand new 2021 fx4 in early june. I am one to check the oil even on a new car. i noticed that the level was in the safe zone from the first time i checked it probably 2 weeks in till yesterday when i changed it- i can't recall if it ever rose. Anyhow, i changed the oil in late...

  7. All about spare keys and stuff

    So there is another thread here that i posted a couple months back on but i had questions about how many keys can be made and how you go about removing a key if you lost one for example. so i have an XL with the key fob with built-in key and it doesn't have remote start. I was able to create...
  8. 265/60R18 cooper discoverer AT3's as a replacement for stock hancocks.

    My local tire guy can get me a good deal on these OTD- cheaper than tire rack. I just need/want the 3 peak mountain symbol for my weekend mountain driving. i've had coopers before on a CUV and had no complaints. seems like these should get me where i want to go- i don't want or need heavier...
  9. Bucking while driving.

    Have noticed a sort of bucking while driving. Doesn't matter in sport mode or drive. But if my foots on the gas it seems to do it. I tried driving it with sport mode and shifting gears and zero issues. Only seems to do it when it shifts on its own. Seems like it's either shifting then bucking...
  10. Duratrac 265/60R18 thoughts?

    Thinking about changing out to duratracs on my oem 18" wheels. They check all the boxes for me for snow rated and looks. One thing that's unknown to me is the sidewall rating. It's an sl load but that doesn't seem to equate to number of plys. Does anyone know how the sidewalls are on this size...

  12. Changing 18" oem to a 17" setup

    So I want more sidewall and I don't want to add a lift. I want to stay as close to stock as possible and am thinking of going to a 17" wheel with 265/65r17 duratracs. I currently have the hangook 265/60r18s. I'd like to not affect wheel bearings and what not so I'd want to keep offsets the...

    with 250 miles on my brand new 21 fx4, i saw this after driving 200 miles in the rain. i have since washed/dressed tires and it goes away only to come back as the dressing washes off. Every tire exhibits this to some degree. defect or something oxidizing out of the tire??
  14. going to 16" wheel? 17"? from 18"

    so i have the fx4 that came with 18" wheels and tires. I don't know why they put a street tire sized wheel on an offroad truck. Anyhow, I want to got smaller wheel size but keep same tire diameter. Am thinking 17s but then 16's popped in my head. Any caveats going to 16" from 18"? will ride...

  16. Entomology of fx4?

    What does fx4 mean? I don't mean what options. I mean how did ford come up with badging that says "fx4"? Does it stand for "four x 4"? So like for an fx2, it would mean "4x2"? I bet Phil knows? Etymology. Sorry.

    so my brand new with 800 miles ranger XL has been showing me on the dash display a warning that the rear drivers door is ajar merely with me opening the drivers door and closing. it seems the only fix is to get out and open that rear door and close until it goes away. it seems this is a common...
