This is on my camper not my truck, a 2021 Clipper Express 9.0TD Vpkg, but I thought it might interest people because it’s very similar to a setup a buddy has for his starlink mini on his tacos roof rack
System kit is all Renogy with a single 50w panel capable of plug and play with more or...
There are surprisingly few threads on this. I have had a CB for 10+ years, mostly for group off-roading trips, but I would just throw it in the back seat with 12V outlet power and a Tram mag antenna out the window. I finally am getting it permanently mounted so it is much easier to use for any...
... is better than you'd think, LOL! I'd love to see other midsize offroad rigs like the taco, 4runner, colorado, etc. in this position.
This is a funny picture because it's with my alloys and Blizzaks on for ski season, in a mall crawl parking spot. This is how it looks with the left on the...
I just got the email from Ford saying that the synch 3 has a free navigation update. While doing the update, I normally leave the engine running with the keys inside, I have done this before no problem. This time the engine has turned off twice by itself after idling for 20 or 30 minutes, this...
I've put about 66k miles on my 19 with the Fox 2.0 shocks and leveling kit from Ford Performance. I was doing my once a year moderate off roading trip and *POP/CLANG*, I thought I made contact on a rock climb ascent/decent. There was an occassional but hard to repeat clang or clunk sound here...
A few weeks ago I noticed my 19 Lariat wasn't working in the FordPass app anymore. This has happened a few times over the years, I normally just remove and re add it and it works. Enabling FordPass connectivity in the Synch 3 menus errors out and just says make sure the ignition is on. Anyway I...
I had an OE factory Motorcraft battery fully die and strand me with little warning on my 02 4.6L Mountaineer, it was at the 8 year mark. Not interested in repeating that ever again ? I'm approaching the 5-year age mark next March on my 19 Ranger and I like to replace my battery around that time...
Ran this east to west the other day as a back way into the Great Sand Dunes NP. 10/10 would recommend. I've done trails in Oregon, including a Jeep badge of honor trail, and Moab, and I have to say this was more fun than many others. I would call it moderate; it's fun and a breeze if you know...
All in the green, check it out. My 2019s history:
- 1st is factory fill
- 1st change is Motorcraft syn blend 5w30, FL-910S
- Next three are Motorcraft full synth 5w30, FL-910S
- This latest interval was Castrol Edge 5w30, FL-910S; it clearly does better than Motorcraft in my opinion. Also my...
I have no idea what U060E is and neither does Google apparently. I cleared it once with my Procal and then it came back the next day. Cleared once more and it hasn’t came back. Any idea what U codes are?
I just got a fresh set of 265/70 R17 Grabber ATX SL 115T installed at Discount Tire. God I love these tires. They are OE on the Tremor and I put them on in the Raptor size when I bought my Ranger new. They stick like glue to dirt, rock and snow, and don't make noise on pavement. First set was...
I had the dealer pull a sample for my first oil change to get a UOA. SO hopefully this oil actually came from my truck, hah!
No fuel in the oil like others have been afraid of. I didn't notice any smell the last time I checked it either. Usual break in wear it looks like. I had 30% life...
I have spent many years dabbling in the design of speakers, home theater, car audio, and even a touch of pro audio back in college. I got the 501A to option out my Ranger to the gills, this being the first OE premium sound system I've got somewhat on purpose. My impressions are that it sounds...
2/2019 build date, 4k miles
Cruising along on the interstate warnings go off for collision avoidance disabled. Engine light and the wrench light both illuminated. Low power mode activates; low engine power state that is not just power but also rough and shudders to shift. Didn't overheat or...
I am looking for suggesions on tonneau covers. Here's what I have so far,
- hard top, to both support stuff getting set on it and no flutters for long road trips
- retractable is cool but I would prefer not to have a big drum in the bed, because,
- must be inside the rails to support a bed...
I was thinking to try and sell these for $800 but I see others selling them for cheaper to forum members, so make an offer. Local pickup only.
Used for less than a month.
Wheels are Ford 18-inch Machined Aluminum Wheels with Magnetic Pockets +$895 factory option, 18X8" 55mm offset with a 6X5.5...
I had Grabber AT2s on my Jeep and really loved them. The ATX is the new version of it which has sidewall design from the top of the line off road X3, and supposedly thicker sidewall cords than typical 4-ply rated tires. Someone on the internet measured and compared it to a KO2 and the ATX was...

I got Ford Accessories, made by Lund, window vents because I loved the Mopar ones I got on my Jeep and thought OE has got to be the way to go. I am underwhelmed with the quality of the Ford ones, but I decided to go ahead and install them anyway. They aren't really high quality...
