  1. Finally home - 3 months waiting for parts

    Perhaps. I will not say I know the in's and out's of a vehicle that is. However, I'll bet one that is "Ford Certified" would have some weight to it. It's a mess for the OP, I will not pretend it's not. IF a vehicle that required what his did was called "Certified" then that is a problem...
  2. Finally home - 3 months waiting for parts

    I’m not sure where you are, but 3 months is WAY over “Lemon Law” territory here in CA, trust me, I know first hand. They had your vehicle (no matter they could not get parts) for that long for “the same problem” (does not even need to be consecutive days), and well… AND if you did “take it...
  3. “New” OEM engine covers

    And I felt “taken” when I bought mine for like $70 nine months ago. For something Ford SHOULD have included. Now…. If only the little “ball joints” I have on my brand new trucks hood and fenders had gas struts attached. Oh and even a cheep plastic “slip case”, instead of a paper envelope for...
  4. Here’s What We Know About The 2024 Ford Ranger

    I wonder if its windshield stays in in a crash, if it comes with hood “struts” attached to the “balls” on the fenders and hood, has a light bulb for the shift console gear selector, doesn’t suffer from “shudder” due to moisture in a sensor, comes with a “catch can” (as an option), and comes with...
  5. Bucking/Surging Epidemic

    EVERYTHING, for EVERY vehicle I've ever owned. There are two (three? warrantee work?) reasons to go to a dealer. 1) Something "too big", or something that requires SST (Special Service Tools) that you don't have or don't want to buy. 2) Something that you say "well, it's the 'dealer' so when...
  6. Sync update.. again

    Frustrating. I’m sorry to read this. Been putting off doing mine (and I do / did work in “Tech” for decades, maybe that’s why I dread it?). Will be this week.
  7. The PIC whore club! Come on in!

    Yosemite at Christmas! My 2022 Ford LARIAT / TREMOR made the drive a pleasure.
  8. OME lift finally on

    Would love to know more about (How to) the lights you have in the stock rear bumper.
  9. Engine Rattle

    And that would be you. "Tuning" a "Ford Ranger" is just a joke. I'm sorry if you don't know or realize that. But sure, keep running "high octane" and keep scratching your head why "Mine started after it (ticking / clicking sounds) was getting 93 all the time..." Do a little research, you might...
  10. Engine Rattle

    "Tuned"? And you say "Mine started after it was getting 93 all the time and cold weather (relatively) showed up."? Perhaps "tuning" an "off the shelf" non performance engine outside of its design is causing a form of pre-detonation (ping)?
  11. Engine Rattle

    Other than some (depending on your fuel maker / supplier) increased detergent benefits, and that is a "maybe", why do some think running an octane above that which is spec'd is a benefit? The engine was designed around a certain octane (which as we all know of course, octane has nothing to do...
  12. Windshield recall

    Well, it's "blown out of proportion" until your brand new vehicle, the day you bought it is defective - leaking water into it. AND your "dealer" can't fix it, and further damaged your vehicle trying to do so. So yes I am blowing things out of proportion.
  13. Windshield recall

    I didn't want to. See my other reply.
  14. Windshield recall

    No actually I don't think I do. I think FORD, and ALL the others, do the ABSOLUTE minimum. Heck look at the "Deleted" list here on this forum. And, I DO think putting in a windshield in the 21st century should not invoke a recall. The ONLY reason I do own a 2022 Lariat / Tremor w/ ALL the bells...
  15. Windshield recall

    Hey if you're happy with paying tens of thousands of dollars for a new vehicle, and then finding out that the manufacturer couldn't do something as "easy" as putting in a windshield right, then I'm sorry for you. Just makes me wonder / worry about something a little more complex. You know, like...
  16. What did you receive in the mail today for your Ranger?

    Have it / Love it! Was installed the day I brought mine home from the dealer. (just go slow / easy popping up the console around the gear shift)
  17. What did you receive in the mail today for your Ranger?

    Remember... "less is more" when it comes to using an orbital tool on your paint. The paint (and or clear coat) is SOOOO thin on these trucks (at least my 2022) I'm afraid to even look at it wrong.
  18. Dealer Oil Change Issue

    ANYTHING (which is plenty) I don't have to have the "dealer" do, even if I "paid for it" (and I have an added on $ service warranty that includes fluids like oil), I don't let them. I'm sure there are some dealerships / dealership mechanics that actually know what they are doing, care about what...
  19. My Baby is American Made....

    Just depends who you ask? And when (what year) you ask? "...Ridgeline truck is actually 70% American-made, the highest of all trucks on this list..." https://www.motorbiscuit.com/5-most-american-made-pickup-trucks-for-2022/
