  1. Snow Tires??

    Living in the rockies for 8 years and going skiing a lot, I used dedicated snow tires when I had a FWD sedan. I thought the Hankooks were fine on the Ranger for winter in the mountains. I have friends that live at 10000 feet and drive 80 miles round trip most days over mountain passes all...
  2. Paint damaged or defect?

    Dang, could be. My parking pad is under a tree. Disappointing, though. I wash my car car way more than my wife does hers and she doesn't have any marks like that on her 2009 Scion.
  3. Paint damaged or defect?

    Top driver's side. That's the top of the windshield on the left.
  4. Paint damaged or defect?

    Went out to the Ranger this morning and noticed this. Any thoughts on what would do that? It doesn't seem like a regular rock chip.
  5. Ford Perimeter Plus Alarm system

    To piggy-back on this, I have the added shock sensor and have never had any notification activity in the app. If it is still working for anyone, would appreciate some info about how I might get this set up. Also, a quirk about the alarm: on several occasions I have triggered the alarm by...
  6. Are You and “In” or “Out” Guy…?

    Always in the garage when I had one. Then I relocated for work and had to settle for just off-street parking pad. I don't like it and hope to have the parking pad fenced and covered this spring (if I can afford it).
  7. Noob octane error - filled 1/2 tank w/85 octane

    FWIW, while living in CO I put probably 7500 miles of exclusively 85 on my 2019 Ranger before I realized that's not recommended. I switched to 87 just to be careful but it didn't change anything about the vehicle that I could discern. That being said, since trading in for a 2021 I only use...
  8. Rangers in SNOW

    St Louis got 10" and the Ranger was flawless. There were people stuck all over and all I could do was help push. So I just got a recovery strap so I can be in a better position to help in the future. I have Googled and not sure best practices with this as many of the results were vague or...
  9. XLT vs Lariat - differences

    I think the key fob reference was that the xlt doesn't offer the proximity unlock and push button start. It does have the button to lock and unlock and I believe remote start from the fob is an option. It can certainly be added via the perimeter plus alarm. As for the seats, it seems sear...
  10. How does the EPA determine average MPG?

    I was wondering this on my holiday road trip where I got 19 mpg at 75 mph on cruise control fully stock over 800 miles. There was cross wind and hills. It seems especially sensitive. Thankfully my 30 mile commute to work at 65 gets about the advertised mileage.
  11. What is everyone paying for their 5th Gen Ranger?

    My Dad liked my Ranger and decided to get one. I found one on the lot about 3 hours away that did x plan pricing plus the 500 off incentive. No one local would do x plan on stock with some over msrp. Thoroughbred Ford in KC MO. No BS.
  12. Ford Pass Rewards

    FWIW, when I have used points they have been deducted pretty much immediately after service.
  13. Unlocking with key...alarm goes off!

    I don't have any answers but my alarm goes off sometimes after I unlock by putting my hand in the driver's side handle for proximity unlock and then open the rear door.
  14. Ford Perimeter Plus Alarm system

    I believe the "plus" adds a motion alarm and remote start on trims that don't already have it.
  15. Ford Perimeter Plus Alarm system

    Can you please post a pic of where your module is? I had perimeter plus installed at the dealer. I thought I had found the module, but what I found has no knob to adjust sensitivity. I can't make it go off with motion so I'd like to increase sensitivity. The little booklet they gave me isn't...
  16. Unicorn Tremor: intro, issues, and questions

    Within the last few weeks my dad was talking to a dealer to order a scab. Got setup with x plan and was ready to order... then was told 6-8 months for delivery and decided to let things settle down.
  17. Repair/Replace 110v outlet on the backside of the center consul.

    I believe 3/36 bumper to bumper applies regardless of 1st owner or not. That has been my limited experience in the past.
  18. What is everyone paying for their 5th Gen Ranger?

    Hello Everyone! After my Dad checked out my Ranger he decided that he wants one so ,since there's not much room for negotiation these days and he doesn't like negotiating with sales people anyways, I got him setup with x-plan (thanks to this forum). So, he generates his pin and is talking to...
