  1. Pre Purchasing my Ford Ranger but EGR cooler issue

    I would punt and go after something else. Had a similar scenario on an Explorer ST and it wound up ending in a lemon law take the car back scenario after multiple attempts to fix it. Maybe it will work out, but sounds like the same drama. Sorry man, whatever you choose hope it works out.
  2. SSM 51754 2023 Bronco/Ranger/Explorer - 2.3L Engine - Loss Of Coolant With Coolant In Oil - Built On 27-Mar-2023 And Through 18-May-2023

    I’ll look into that, I hope it isn’t. None of the EGR stuff is covered by ford and from past experience with another ford, it’s a pain to deal with that system.
  3. SSM 51754 2023 Bronco/Ranger/Explorer - 2.3L Engine - Loss Of Coolant With Coolant In Oil - Built On 27-Mar-2023 And Through 18-May-2023

    I commute it about 110 miles a day or about 2700 miles a month on average. I tow a 5k camper about 7-10 times a year up through the Rockies usually. I also off-road it about once every two weeks for about 30 minutes on average, but every other month I take a longer wheeling trip (couple hours)...
  4. SSM 51754 2023 Bronco/Ranger/Explorer - 2.3L Engine - Loss Of Coolant With Coolant In Oil - Built On 27-Mar-2023 And Through 18-May-2023

    So….. I have a 2021 and I just swapped to doing all the oil changes and regular maintenance myself (like last oil change). Used the dealer before every 4-5k. I noticed my coolant was low during the oil change. I know it can be normal to have to add coolant once in a while, so I bought the ford...
  5. Engine light on😔

    I must of misread something, sorry for the confusion. I was dying to tell that horrible story I guess. ?
  6. Engine light on😔

    I had this on a 2020 Explorer ST. It can be easy like mentioned before with a $20 part or next to impossible to run down. I had three dealers try to fix that thing over a 45 day period and a master mechanic spend a few days in a row on it to no avail. I had just bought the car so after they...
  7. Driveshaft play

    I have a 2021 Tremor and I’m starting to notice the same thing. It reminds me of driving a HMMWV a little off the line and stopping (small amount of slack). Doesn’t seem to be a major issue, just an observation. If I notice it, it’s just enjoying at worst. I have beat on it pretty hard and tow...
  8. Any Tremor owners with Ford Performance tune?

    Yeah, it was exactly what the ProCal came with. Hope that helps. Best of luck, it’s a great tune.
  9. Any Tremor owners with Ford Performance tune?

    I found that it was on the money with the revs per mile it came with. I did the tire calculator and it was off by a couple mph from multiple GPS sources. Once I adjusted it I found myself back at the original revs per mile in the ProCal that it came with. I thought it was weird, but that’s what...
  10. Southern Colorado (Ouray, Telluride, Durango, Silverton)

    Awesome! The Silverton pass to Ouray is the most scenic drive I’ve ever taken. There are a bunch of short hikes in Ouray. Cascade falls is one (.4 miles). It’s the only place I’ve ever been behind a waterfall. There is another one called Baby Bathtubs that is also only (.3 miles). We went up to...
  11. Southern Colorado (Ouray, Telluride, Durango, Silverton)

    If you live close enough to take this trip, I highly recommend it. I’ve done it multiple times and it just never gets old. This ring route has: Hiking Camping or nice hotels Mountain Bike Trails Off Roading Fishing Mountain Climbing Ice climbing in the winter Skiing/ Snowboarding winter Train...
  12. Rear axle spline count

    You’re breaking ground to an extent for the Ranger, almost no one has done what your planning. It’s a proven technique in other platforms and those same issues and benefits will likely follow to your application on the Ranger. YOLO!
  13. Just checking Tremor vs FX4

    Dude, autocorrect got you good on that one! ?
  14. oil level observations on a new truck

    I unfortunately get my oil changed at Ford. It’s some 100k powertrain warranty thing. I ask a lot of questions and I’m very skeptical of others work on my car. I have always done my own maintenance, so this is a bit weird for me. The tech told me he puts in exactly 6.2 quarts. I asked why...

  16. What features would a Lincoln version of the Ranger look like?

    So, what would they call the Lincoln version of a Ranger? They’ve taken a pretty good stab at aircraft crew member designations already (Aviator/ Navigator). Lincoln’s don’t usually use snake-horse-dinosaur names. Unfortunate but, those are the cards we were dealt. Thoughts?
  17. Tremor Suspension Upgrade/Level

    I’ve seen this covered somewhere on here before. If I’m not mistaken there was a fair bit of folks that were all for the spacer that’s made by one of the Ranger5 members. There were varying opinions that were good as well. I’d give it a search and see what you come up with. It is a bit of a...
  18. What features would a Lincoln version of the Ranger look like?

    You know a super refined tailgate dampener would have to be incorporated. No way the Lincoln Ranger would miss that opportunity.
  19. What are you guys towing?

    I have not towed without the FP tune. I got it specifically for towing, but I suspect it wouldn’t have any problems without it. I’ll give it a try in a few weeks and report back. My temps are normal around 200ish at all times so far. I like those Geo Pros, nice rigs, we’ll designed.
  20. What are you guys towing?

    I’m still playing with the set up, but it tows wonderful. I used to tow with a Lariat F-150 3.5 EB. The payload is about 100lbs less in the Ranger. It feels similar in terms of stability, the 3.5 had more get up and go, but the Ranger crushed a huge hill with about 1500’ of elevation gain at...
