I've been needing a good floor jack for awhile now so when I saw a Harbor Freight store on the way home today I picked up a couple items. My prior F-150 FX4 , the new Ranger FX4 and with the Bronco coming in , I really needed something other than my old AC Delco floor jack to lift the tall stuff...
I'm a Ford fan as I have had great ownership experiences from every Ford that I purchased new and from most of my used ones. Even the ones that had been beat on pretty hard from the previous owners. As of late I am still driving a 1991 Ranger to work most days with 330k and just replaced the...
Putting a engine cover on your truck that did not originally come with one would probably just give them an excuse to not cover something else under warranty.
Well yeah , that's the point. If they can provide proof then good for them and bad for you.Most of the time they bluff and lie. I've went a few rounds with dealers in my years of owning an accessory shop,lol. If they don't have proof they back down once you stand your ground and know the lawyer...

Never back down.
Something like this would be the route I would take. It's a Tremor after all and it would look right at home up there. The dealership should have no issue buying a nice rack and installing it plus discount some for the damage . It would be interesting to know what their body shop estimate to do...

It's sad what the greedy dealers are doing to the Ford brand . What supposed to be an affordable budget truck ends up out of the reach of its intended market. An engineer and a maintenance tech here at work were both trying to find a Maverick (we cast and mill the 2.0 here) and all they can find...
Companies have been doing that for decades. Back in the late 80's Wal-Mart got caught with the "Made In The USA" promotion where it ended up being the box that was imprinted with that slogan was indeed , Made in the USA. The contents , not so much. Today when you see a Made in the USA sticker...
