I love my 2020 Ford Ranger XLT. It has been trouble free, and has hauled a lot of material for me. We decided to become a one vehicle family and go on some longer road vacations and the truck was not the right vehicle for that and was not my wife’s first choice for a sole vehicle. We have less...

I am going to use a 12 volt submersible pump to pump sap from my collection barrels to my transfer tanks. I was going to use my ATV with quick connects wires to do it, but using my ATV limited how much capacity I can carry. it struck me I could put two 55 gallon barrels in the back of the...

A while back, I was having trouble opening the key part of the key fob. It would not spring open and I had to get my fingernails to pry it open. Then it locked in the open position and I could not close it. Last August during an oil change, I mentioned it at the service desk. They said that...

I am a week away from owning my Ranger for two years. I have to say I love it and have had zero problems. I have often used it as a truck and it has been terrific. My favourite add on is the bed extender. I have used it to carry so many long items, even up to 16’ long. I have loaded it up to...

Last year I could not wait to take pictures of the Ranger in the snow, I struggled with how much weight to put into the back of the Ranger and tried to force the Ranger in 2 wheel drive up my icy steep driveway. It was my first winter driving a truck in 25 years and I was apprehensive about...

Nothing overly exciting, but when I bought my Ranger in the fall of 2020 and we were approaching winter, I wanted to have some “tools” to be able to help people that got stuck In the ditch. My step son told me don’t hurt your truck and have them call CAA. I ended up buying a recovery rope, a...

This past week, I have been doing truck like things like moving bags of concrete and pea gravel and cinder blocks, and the truck handled them all well, but today for the first time I had two adults in the back seat as we went to a restaurant for the first time with another couple, as Covid...

The weather is starting to warm up and as soon as some of my supplies arrive next week, I will do my Spring detail. There is a small window, from when it warms up until black fly season. This is my plan. I am not positive about one part of it. I have crib notes associated with some of the steps...

A number of people in our area, received the prized email from Starlink that they can order their dishes. I haven’t been so lucky yet. There are a number of you tube videos about the dish and service now. By far and away most people are very pleased. The one thing I have noticed in those...

I have been reading about detailing and watching You Tube videos on it. First off I am not a total detail nut, but I don’t want to skip important steps. Right now I have a base coat of McQuires Hybrid Ceramic was on the truck. When I go to make it look good, these are the steps I follow: spray...

It seemed to me that there was a lot of 50+ year old Ranger owners. Just made me curious on what the age range of the Ranger owners is on the club.

My hoses are put away for the winter. Just wondering how some of you wash your Ranger during the winter months, other than taking them to a car wash? I was out in the slush twice today and the truck is the dirtiest it ever has been.

My previous four vehicles, when I turned cruise control on, it would still be on when you restarted the car and you would just have to press set to activate it. So far with the Ranger, I have to turn it on each time, listen to the chimes, then select Set. Am I missing a setting that would...

I received the Extang Trifecta 2.0 Signature Series cover a week ago and absolutely love it. Today I finally got my bed extender. When I went to put the cover on, the latching handles on the cover near the tailgate cannot swing into the locking position, because they hit the bed extender top...

Sort of a stupid question. I have a wash mop with a long handle to help me wash the outside of the windshield. But when it comes to drying the windshield, I have a tough time drying it. I have a gravel driveway and do not trust a stool/ladder next to my truck to help reach the middle of the...

The first cool thing is the truck somehow knew that I had the trailer hitch on and added a dotted line in the backup camera, so that it really aided backing up directly to the trailer receiver. The second cool thing was once I hooked up the trailer, it asked me automatically how wide the...

I just downloaded IOS14 and now the music from my iPhone is all screwed up. I chose a song and a different song plays. My Apple Music Radio does not show any stations to choose.. Anyone else experiencing problems? Any known fixes?
