So I normally take the old Mountaineer to Tractor Supply when I need a few bags of pine shavings and pine pellets for horse bedding (I like to mix it in with the bulk sawdust I buy), it's just easier for me to load and unload because the cargo area sits lower. But yesterday, I was coming home...

My 2003 Mercury Mountaineer Premier AWD 8 cyl. (125,600 miles) has to be left at the mechanic's tomorrow. I really only use it to drive back and forth from my house to the horse barn next door where I keep my horses which is about 700' away. I also use it for my bi-weekly jaunt to Tractor...

My 2021 XLT just 2 years old end of April 2023. Just turned 9,000 miles. I was detailing the exterior yesterday and noticed this rust on frame inside passenger side wheel well. Is this to be expected? Should I try to wire brush and hit with some black Rustoleum or is it not worth the effort or...

About 4 or 5 weeks ago, I made the appt for mid-March at the Ford dealership where I've taken my Ranger to since I bought it. )It's the Ford dealership closest to me, not where I bought my truck.) I talked to Service first to get the appt for the Works oil change (full synthetic oil) and my...

.... that looks very similar to the Ranger Cactus Grey. On my drive to work every day I pass a Ford dealership and that have the prettiest F150 Crewcab 5.5' bed sitting on the lot. Looks like it has a black trim package. It definitely isn't a Ranger. I looked on line for 2023 F150 new paint...

I've been looking online until my head is spinning and reading reviews on Amazon. Would mostly be used for washing my vehicles and I'd like to stay under $250, but under $200 would be even better. I'd like if it came with a foam canon or would accept 3rd party brand attached. I tried using...

The dealer I bought my 2021 Ranger from is about 35 minutes away. Neither local Ford dealer had a light colored Ranger in stock with the 302A package so I bought it where I could find one. Anyway.... I put less than 4500 miles on a year and I don't like to go more than 5,000 miles without an...

I know there are pics splattered throughout the forum with examples.... if you do a search on key words, you might find them. Thought it would be helpful to have some examples in one place for anyone debating about whether they like the looks of one and which one for their Ranger. I was pretty...

I searched the forum for "hood alignment" but nothing really came up but if it's been discussed, I apologize for asking here. When eye balling my hood, I kinda thought the hood has a gap left and right sides where it overhangs just a tad. Didn't really bother me though, still doesn't, thought...

Not in octane, but in brand? I usually get Exxon 93 octane but 2 weeks ago I stopped at a Sheetz (not sure if there are Sheetz stores nationwide, but they're like an upper end quick mart) and put in their 93 octane and I definitely saw a difference in mpg... like 3 mpg lower. Now last gas up...

So I've watched quite a few videos of suggested ways to touch up stone chips so they are barely noticeable. Other than dapping on a drop of the touch up paint (tiny chips, just to get it covered and prevent rust on the steel bumper), I haven't done any of the wet sanding methods shown with the...

As a dealer, we were getting a price increase about every 4 months... usually $50 per cap increase. BUT... ready for it?! Yesterday our fiberglass cap manufacturer passed on a cost of materials/production increase of just over $200/per cap! And of course, we have no choice but to pass it...

I was reading one of the forum threads and it said the pillar trim finish is just vinyl, which I didn't know. Not that I plan on changing them up, but if someone does, other than the stainless steel aftermarket pillar trim pieces, there is semi permanent adhesive Post Trim Kits available in...

So I stopped by the Ford dealer down the road from where I work. I figured rather than having my yearly inspection, first oil change and tire rotation along with trying to get my genuine ford part keyless entry keypad programmed all in one visit, I'll just try to make an appt for the keyless...

I'm bringing this over to a new thread as it probably got lost in my other thread. Two dealerships' managers will not allow my program my genuine keyless keypads unless they are installed on the vehicle. I only got to talk to the clerk at the first place where I usually take my Ranger, but she...

I ordered one and it arrived. When I take my truck in next month for yearly inspection/tire rotation/ oil change (only have 3400 miles, so trying to wait until end of next month when inspection runs out).... I'm going to ask for it to be programmed. I'm going to ask they not install it, I'll...

Had to take the Mountaineer to town anyway, so I thought I'll go through the touchless car wash I heard about... thought I'll test it out on the ole Moutaineer before I try on the Ranger. I like to get the undercarriage rinsed off a few times a year, other than that I hand wash (weather...

Just noticed driving to work that the Ford dealer down the road has an exact same model XLT Crew 4x4 Cactus Grey as mine. I thought it must be a 2022, but just looked at colors available for 2022 Ranger and I don't see Cactus Grey. Up until now, I haven't seen another Cactus Grey Ranger around...

We got our first snowfall over the weekend. I know not to use a broom to remove the snow. Was looking at the different push/scraper type snow removers on Amazon. Not looking for the brush type, but the type that won't mar the paint. Any one have a recommendation? I see prices range from $10...

Purchased May 2021. Installed in June or July (during warm weather). B&I Dash Kit #WD1267D-LS2 (8pcs). Fits 2021 FORD RANGER 4DR. Finished in Real Birdseye Maple. (Ref: FWD-BC) One of the thin sections of the one piece that is on the console lifted and is buckled. Just happened a few days ago...
