  1. More squirrel damage - Battery Management System?

    Thanks for the replies. I think I'll clean up the wires and see how things go with the battery over the next few months.
  2. More squirrel damage - Battery Management System?

    Hello - Was checking under the hood today and I found some new rodent damage. Something has been making a nest out of the battery insulation material, and chewing on a wiring harness exiting the current/temperature sensor for the battery management system at the negative terminal. Several...
  3. 🚘 Let’s See Your Car Interior Designs!

    You may have answered this somewhere else, but does the backup camera work, too?
  4. Is 30k miles worth $2k

    I don't think a new or used engine is likely to go out before your original transmission, if that helps the calculus.
  5. Trade my 2019 for a 2025?

    You might also want to check Driveway - they offered me 2k more than car max and I shopped that price with the dealers.
  6. Trade my 2019 for a 2025?

    Obviously this is a personal decision but you're going to take a big hit with the trade-in and CA taxes on the full sales price. I looked at the 25s because of the employee pricing (no haggle pricing basically), and going from a 21 Tremor Lariat to a 25 XL 4x4 I was still over 8K out the door...
  7. Bike Rack or Tailgate Pad?

    I have a pad and a hitch rack. Virtually never use the rack anymore because putting the bikes in the bed is just so easy. I haven't noticed any damage to tailgate or the bikes, but maybe someday it will happen. Driving around with a rack all the time is a no go for me, and putting it on/off is...
  8. Trading 22 XLT for 24 XLT v6?

    Well, I was ready to pull the trigger and told the dealership that I didn't have all day, but they said 3 hours would be plenty of time. After 3 days of back and forth with the dealer, we agreed on a price for the trade and set an appointment. Drove an hour there and surprise, the truck was in a...
  9. Trading 22 XLT for 24 XLT v6?

    Yes, weaker. But new transmissions should have a better CDF drum.
  10. Buy my Ranger!

    nice! you made a good deal!
  11. Buy my Ranger!

    selling for $27,989 - mind if if i ask how much they paid you for it?
  12. Trading 22 XLT for 24 XLT v6?

    This might be a crazier proposition. I have already made my decision but here's the scenario. Trade in 2021 Tremor Lariat with 29K miles: $32,750 Purchase 2025 Ranger XL 4x4 with locker for $36,822. I really like the Marsh Gray (controversial, I know) After tax, title, license - the out the...
  13. 110K+ miles and ZERO issues

    All cars have problems. Except for Ford Rangers. Ford Rangers and the 10R80 are bullet proof. Like many here, all I care about is my own experience: Lexus - 40K miles - three trips to dealer for 2 repairs and 1 recall. One of these was a serious mechanical problem. Mercedes (only temporarily...
  14. Sold my Ranger... Leaving the group

    Sorry to see a SCAB owner go. They are becoming a rarity. I've driven the lightning (briefly) and the Cybertruck (for a week) and I understand why you got the Lightning - much more "normal." But the Cybertruck really blew me away. It's a revolutionary vehicle - controversial yes - but that's...
  15. Bought another one, this time the 6th gen

    when i got my 2021 it was a good deal to get these trucks at MSRP. When you shopped around, were most dealers willing to come down off MSRP and by how much?
  16. Lowering the rear of my Tremor with Belltech shackles

    levelling the front (1" kit from ford ranger lifts) will remove the rake on a tremor. some people prefer 2". below pic is 1".
  17. Ford Ranger Among ‘Most Dangerous’ Pickup Trucks

    Mass is the main factor in safety. And overall the ranger is doing better than the smaller cars. but obviously rangers are tall and skinny compared to say the Tacoma. I’m sure they roll easier. So I tend to believe this data.
  18. It's Been Fun, Time to Move on.

    HA! i guess this qualifies as an upgrade from a Ranger too! It's bigger and more engineering resources went into it.
