  1. 12 Worst Pickups (youtube video)

    This popped up in my feed (clickbait; I bit) Short version: Ranger, Taco, Frontier not on the list.
  2. Is the muffler covered under power train warranty?

    I searched the forums but didn't find anything about this. Just noticed water drops on my driveway, and found the bottom of the muffler around the end cap seal is wet. I don't hear any exhaust leak, but it's obviously got a hole in it. Is this covered? My 5 year powertrain warranty expires...
  3. 19-23 Ranger recall (along with other models)

    Just saw there is a recall for the 5Gs for a software problem with the backup cameras. Looks like a bunch of other models also included. Maybe this is the problem with some folks losing the camera.
  4. Backfires?

    I was out tooling around today on backroads, and put my foot into it going up and down hills, as one does. I got the RPMs up to about 5k in a short period, then let off it completely, and I heard some pop pops. The stereo was up, so I turned it down and did it again. Def some backfiring pops...
  5. Guess I need a battery, truck lost it's mind.

    2020 Lariat. Today, several of us went to the grocery store. We are out of town, BTW, so I don't have my spare fob. When we were unloading groceries the truck alarm went off for some reason (first red flag). The fob was on the dash, so I grabbed it and shut the alarm off, then tossed it back...
  6. 2025 Maverick info

    I went down a rabbit hole after the 25 Mav info was released, mostly out of curiosity with potential purchase in a few years after my need for a midsize truck goes away. The basic info about it is available, so I won't belabor that stuff. I like the updated tech and hybrid AWD. Here is info I...
  7. WTB. Left rear wheel opening molding, Magnetic Gray.

    Anyone who upgraded to the tremor wheel flares have your old magnetic gray wheel opening moldings you want gone? I may end up getting the tremor flares, but if I can find a regular molding then I'll do that. All the new ones I've found are unpainted.
  8. 1st DOH! What is this part called, and part# ?

    After 3.5 years I made my first bone head move. I was pulling a trailer and saw my friend who owns the lot beside us came up for the weekend. Stopped and backed up to pull into his driveway, and forgot I had the trailer on. Looked in the rearview and thought, hey, where's the trailer, just as...
  9. It's Official, but different

    My company recently made a change. They 'sold' nearly the entire IT group to what I call a Body Shop. Meaning, they made a deal with the devil to move 500 people, give or take, to a 3rd party, and we all now work as contractors for the original company. The new company is in the biz to...
  10. Sub $20K cars, where da at?

    This popped up in my YT feed so I watched it. Doesn't really say much we didn't already know, but it was still mildly interesting. It uses the Maverick as an example of the point of the video. It does also say something about how well the Mav sold compared to the Ranger, which is misleading...
  11. Tacoma Xtracab, rear 'doors' don't open

    Yesterday I poked around a bit looking at the Tacoma, specifically a hybrid Xtracab. Well, they only offer the xtracab on low trim levels, and the rear 'doors' no long open, AKA access cab. What a load of crap. I guess that's out, and I'll just drive my SCAB into the ground, which means until...
  12. Car show walk around, "insiders" talking prices

    Stumbled on this vid today; it's a father-son team who run a website to help people find and buy cars. The father is a 40+ year sales manager and his son I guess builds the tech. I actually was using their 'method' when I bought my truck and they have good info for buyers. Anyway, here it is.
  13. Wife ordered a new ride.

    I haven't been around much lately, but a while back I posted about looking for a new car for my wife. She has had a Volvo XC70 for 20 years. She finally decided she wanted a new car, Hybrid. We went today and drove an Explorer. It was very nice, but it was more SUV/Truck than she wanted...
  14. Sync3 NAV stopped talking to me.

    Did a quick search with no Joy. I don't use nav much, but I noticed the past few times that it stopped talking to me. The settings show it set to voice responce, but it won't talk to me. I feel to ghosted! Anyone else?
  15. First door dent... by my own hand. Sad face

    Had to take a road trip today and forgot to get gas. Stopped, got out carefully knowing that big stupid crash bar thing by the gas pump. Evidently I let the door go and the next thing I know it's bouncing off that metal bar thingie. Mother.....WHAT Add 100 bucks to my road trip cost, cause I...
  16. Truck Ramp? The ramp rack.

    I am not affiliated with this company. Saw it somewhere else, and it looks cool. Not sure they have one for the ranger. https://theramprack.com/
  17. Off Topic. Amish Joy Riding

    Um, I don't know what to say... Amish teenagers gotta have fun too, I guess
  18. Ford quality discussion (not specifically Ranger)

    Here's a video from this father-son team that offers services to help buy cars. They're sort of goofy, but can be interesting at times. The father is a retired sales manager and son is just his son who thought they could make some money peddling the fathers experience. But anyway.
  19. I've strayed, but not gone for good.

    Long story short, I had a Honda foreman ATV. My wife planted the seed that we should get a side by side, so off I went. Forgetting that inventory was going to be low I sold my ATV, but then couldn't find the SxS I wanted, a new Honda pioneer 520. Surprise Surprise. I stumbled onto a 2015...
  20. Nigerian Prince contacted me. Nice knowing you all!

    I'm selling my ATV to upgrade to a SXS, and wouldn't you know it, I am going to strike it rich! I feel so blessed. ---------------------- Yes i will be buying this from you,Please kindly withdraw the advert from this site. My husband will overnight the payment asap but he will be paying with a...
