  1. Long range fuel tank (140L or 37 gal)

    The Ranger is completely overlooked in the fact it needs a larger tank, you can get massive 60 gallon OEM replacement tanks for the F-series gas and diesel. But ask them if they will do tanks for the Ranger and their heads explode. I want a 25 gallon tank that's big enough for me.
  2. 2024 Ranger

    ARB Australia, already has it covered.
  3. 2024 Ranger

    First obvious difference, third brake light location. Global has the third brake light in the tailgate. Box also looks different as well, wouldn't be surprised if there is next to nil panel swapping compatability. Probably have to go the whole nine to put a Wildtrak front end on. Interior is the...
  4. Are You Thinking About Cashing in on an EV

    No, why do I want to to pay stupid money for something that has so little range? Battery tech is at its peak, EVs are as old as ICE and have suffered the same setbacks since year one. Twice as expensive as ICE counterparts, range is highly limited opposed to ICE counterparts and no...
  5. Ranger Raptor paddle shifters on US Ranger?

    Looked into doing a Ranger Raptor wheel swap. Without basically getting the whole column to go with, can't be done and even going that far still might not be enough. Parts compatability is extremely small.
  6. Why did you pick the Ranger over the Tacoma?

    The Diesel choices alone are more than worth it. Toyota has the most bullet proof Diesel engines money can buy. The best part is, you can easily convert the 1HZ to a 1HD Turbo for very little money and there's tons of aftermarket conversion kits just built specifically for that.
  7. Why did you pick the Ranger over the Tacoma?

    What the US gets is a mere meager offering of what Toyota really has. The Tacoma has the Championship Belt Title for mid-size truck sales and it gives them a dull sense of the US market. If Toyota really wanted to push they would kill the Tacoma for the Hilux or mold the Tacoma more to the...
  8. Why did you pick the Ranger over the Tacoma?

    One reason people buy outdated Toyotas, it's called reliability. A 20 year old new Lexus GX aka Land Cruiser Prado has a drivetrain that's so reliable you can toss a grenade under the hood, detonate, get behind the wheel start it and drive off. That's why people buy the old outdated lethargic...
  9. Ranger sales vs. competition

    The same thing was continuously said about the Grand Wagoneer as it was supposed to be launched by 2018 latest. Based originally off the WK2 platform so it would share most with Grand Cherokee and Durango which was supposed to be it's replacement. Well it went through several redesigns a new...
  10. Ranger sales vs. competition

    Supposedly RAM is working on a new Dakota to put back into the Mid-Size Class. Now rumor has been floating that RAM is working on what is dubbed a "Baby Dakota" similar what's sold just south of the Border which is a small unibody pickup of it's own. Usually when something is rumored at Chrysler...
  11. Why did you pick the Ranger over the Tacoma?

    Toyota has lost so much trust/faith customer relationships it now has to adhere to the call the customer every 3 years and ask if they want to trade in. When you refuse to admit that there will be mistakes, etc... Eventually word does travel near and far. Even better when Corporate comes to...
  12. Why did you pick the Ranger over the Tacoma?

    Due to Toyota's attitude that somehow their product is invincible and if something breaks you caused it while under warranty. I will never own another new Toyota ever again until that attitude changes.
  13. Stop start eliminator not working

    This is why I want to get an updated tow/haul and traction control button which doesn't have the S/S on it.
  14. New rival incoming: 2024 Tacoma Hybrid and Turbo 4 Cylinder models (no more V6)

    Winner, winner chicken dinner. That's exactly what it will bring to the table. As that statement completely describes the whole of the Toyota Fan base.
  15. New rival incoming: 2024 Tacoma Hybrid and Turbo 4 Cylinder models (no more V6)

    Looks are in the middle of my list of priorities. If it's comfortable for a long day of driving, delivers fuel economy so I don't stop every 100 miles to refuel, I don't have to worry about hooking up a 2,000lb trailer straining the transmission. I'm fine owning it. Ugly doesn't mean a thing if...
  16. New rival incoming: 2024 Tacoma Hybrid and Turbo 4 Cylinder models (no more V6)

    It will be another serious let down. The new Tundra was hyped up and fell well short of any expectations and the Sequoia let's not go there, smaller cargo space than the current 4Runner and same fuel Economy as the new Twin Turbo I6 from Wagoneer which isn't a hybrid opposed to the Sequoia...
  17. Defroster cracked my windshield this morning

    Possibly bad seal, I had the same BS when I owned a Toyota Camry. Knew something wasn't right when driving to Los Angeles and back. Sounded like I had the windows cracked and I could feel a draft from where the windshield met the dash. Just after coming back went to work in the morning and there...
  18. Were 2019 Rangers Built Better?

    I don't have rough first shifts in the morning even when cold and no I don't remote start and let the engine warm up. I do my usual 30 second idle mainly for oil circulation which is turn key grab and buckle, connect the phone adjust HVAC temp and go.
  19. Were 2019 Rangers Built Better?

    We learned a rather quick and dirty cheat in U-Haul when needing to inspect transmission fluid levels. With engine running for about a minute or two, shift to reverse, then drive, to neutral then reverse and place back in park. You have to let the transmission engage each gear before changing...
  20. Were 2019 Rangers Built Better?

    21' with nearly 11k on the clock. Aside the usual spats with Android Auto, which is on Google not Ford, the parking brake boot and the rattle in the dash related to the pre-collision warning lights when it's near 0 out in the morning no serious problems. The rattle goes away when the dash is...
