  1. Risk with Tuners?

    Another consideration is tuning an engine and then driving the vehicle in a somewhat "normal" manner. If you beat the snot out of any vehicle 24/7, tuned or not, you're probably going to have problems at some point.
  2. Risk with Tuners?

    You have to be willing to accept some risk and I agree that it is shady to try and cover tracks to get damages covered under warranty. When I tune my truck it will likely be a '91 octane tune' and I'll run 93 octane fuel, while also keeping my eyes and ears peeled for detonation...especially...
  3. Risk with Tuners?

    I'd assume the RS doesn't leave a whole lot of meat on the bone from the factory and attempts to tune it push the safe limits. Plenty of wiggle room when it comes to the Ranger, as evident by the engine's output in other platforms.
  4. Livernois Tuning released

    On a previous vehicle tuned by LMS (2013 SHO) I found huge improvements when it came to performance and daily driving. Their transmission adjustments do as much to improve a vehicle's overall performance as the additional power they offer. That is the main thing driving me to buy one of their...
  5. Before & After pics....leveling kit & wheels/tires

    No issues so far. I torqued the lug nuts a little tighter than usual when I installed the spacers. No problems when I checked them.
  6. Before & After pics....leveling kit & wheels/tires

    These are the spacers I bought: https://www.titanwheelaccessories.com/collections/1-4-wheel-spacers/products/2-1-4-6x5-5-6x139-7-wheel-spacers-for-escalade-sierra-yukon-suburban-silverado The tires fit without the spacers but there was VERY little clearance up front. So far so good.
  7. Livernois Tuning released

    I see on the LMS site it says "Tire Size Alterations (Under Development)" for the Ranger tuner. Any word on when this will be available?
  8. Before & After pics....leveling kit & wheels/tires

    2.5” leveling kit and 265/79R70 tires on stock wheels with 1/4” spacers. Stock pic below
  9. Risk with Tuners?

    The internals in these engines are more than enough for any tune a company like Livernois, Unleash, and others offer. The fuel system is likely going to hit a wall before any engine components start to go boom, as is the case with most other Ecoboost engines. I plan to tune my truck in the...
  10. How did you enjoy your truck today?

    How I envision my truck being treated when I let my wife or daughter use it.
  11. How did you enjoy your truck today?

    Took my boys (5 and 2) out for a spin through some trails near my place. The 5 year old loves it but it was the first time for the little guy. We hit some pretty good size hills, bounced around some rocky areas, and both boys approve of the new truck. :like:
  12. Leveled FX4 Better Than Leveled My Old 2014 Tacoma With Off-Road Package

    *Apologies for the jacked up subject, haha* I took my Ranger out on some local trails I’ve driven countless times with my 2014 Tacoma double-cab with the Off-road package. Both trucks are basically set up the same way, leveling kit and similar size 265/70 tires. Long story short...ground...
  13. Livernois Tuning released

    When the time comes to tune my truck it will be LMS. I’ve had great luck with them in the past.
  14. JB4 Tune (Burger Motorsports)

    Any plans to do some dyno runs before and after install?
  15. Tire inflation question

    I definitely adjust pressure if ride quality or performance isn’t what I think it should be. The only vehicle I ever really took the time to really get wrapped up on tire pressure was a M3 though, for trucks I usually just go with the tire rating and call it good.
  16. Tire inflation question

    I read what it says on the tire and go with that. If they are over-inflated I let air out, if they are under-inflated I put air in. This approach has worked well for me over the years.
  17. Replaced 12V outlet with USB

    I'll pass on anything Huawei, haha.
  18. Those coming from Taco / Colorado / Canyon - What are your thoughts on the Ranger so far?

    Yes, that forum is absolute trash. Sort of entertaining to read through some of the threads though.
  19. Those coming from Taco / Colorado / Canyon - What are your thoughts on the Ranger so far?

    I traded a 2014 Tacoma Off-Road for my Ranger. The Tacoma, a "GEN2' was a great little truck and I had almost zero issues over the course of 85k miles, including a lot of time spent off-road. The 4.0L was so-so in terms of power and gas mileage was terrible compared to the available power, but...
