  1. Transmission Service - Does this sound right?

    My 19 was that way, then the tranny died going up a hill right after warranty, like stuck in neutral free revving. Didn't say anything about the valve body but the hub/clutches. Maybe a transmission guy can chime in. With labor cost here cheaper to swap the entire thing. Ford is paying it...
  2. Front Driver's Side Traction Control Malfunction

    Happen to me constantly, sharp uphill driveway to tight turn, super annoying.
  3. Bed Cap Anyone have one? ARE Leer?

    I’m having an ARE V series installed right now will post pics when it’s done.
  4. Bed Cap Anyone have one? ARE Leer?

    Got notification my cap was built and will ship next week.
  5. WARNING for STX and XL buyers!

    Pretty clear on the website. It says what is standard and what is included in the STX. Nowhere does it mention that screen is upgraded in STX. In fact the STX package is called an appearance package. Ford is in the business of making money not giving stuff away for free, they will minimize...
  6. Bed Cap Anyone have one? ARE Leer?

    I also have an order for a V series I was told it would be here by beginning May by the dealer who called and talked personally to the factory.
  7. Bed Cap Anyone have one? ARE Leer?

    V series is in production for super crew. You can order it now. CX is coming within a week or two. Confirmed this with A.R.E. I had a CX on my old ranger, it’s not clear to me the price diff between V and CX is worth it this time around. I like the looks of the Z series but I want fold out...
  8. Topper Shell

    I wonder if snugtop will be out with one soon. They used to produce shells for the global ranger and export them, should be simple for them assuming the bed dimensions are exactly the same.
  9. FordPass Connect 4G AT&T Monthly Prices - US

    Yea, they use ATT because it is GSM, Sync 3 is a global platform and everyone in the world outside Japan and North America uses GSM networks for cell. Easier to build once for everywhere if you can. (Chicken tax not included)
  10. SOLVED: Steering Wheel Not Straight, Needed Alignment

    Eh ideally you want dead center steering, dead center on the rack. Some racks if you just adjust tie rods when you’re off this far you can affect turning radius. Looks to me when they linked the steering u joint they were off a few teeth.
  11. i forgot to order running boards can the dealer add the factory style at the dealership?

    For me depends on the shoes I'm wearing. Tennishoes work fine, but I wear snow boots pretty much all winter and the boards are too close to the cab to be useful with bulky boots.
  12. Sales numbers Ranger versus F150

    I think ford doesn’t really intend to sell many of these in rural locations for now. If the ad campaign is a guide, they are primarily targeting 20-30s (millennial) professionals living in urban locations who want a commuter vehicle they can also use for home improvement and adventure sports...
  13. Actual towing capacity?

    These guys did 5000 pounds up the Rockies no problems. If it can do that I’d bet you can safely tow more the 7500 in the flats. I’ve been up that highway, it’s rough on cars not towing.
  14. Things I feel are missing/or needed on a Ranger

    I’m guessing the moon roof is omitted due to the design not being roll over friendly, they probably fear the rating. For real, heated steering wheel is low hanging fruit, but what I really want ford wide is for them to update sync 3 for wireless car play. Had it in my old ranger aftermarket head...
  15. What car/truck are you replacing with the new Ranger?

    Def not in Lead with those steep streets. In Rapid City area with good non studded winter tires it’s fine. Swapped to 4WD this go around.
  16. What is everyone paying for their 5th Gen Ranger?

    Got invoice + another 500 off with an incentive. Truck was 45090 paid 42834, and of course taxes and title. Got roughly 5% off sticker.
  17. What car/truck are you replacing with the new Ranger?

    2010 Ford Ranger XLT SuperCab 2WD. Was a good truck for my needs, until a Prius crashed into me and damaged the frame at an unrepairable location.
