  1. Recent trade in values for Ranger?

    I traded in my 22 Tremor with 12,xxx miles in October for $38,500. The dealer turned around and listed the truck for $43,891. i also went with a F150. Most places within a short drive had 10k off MSRP and full lots.
  2. Anyone use rock defectors?

  3. Bug guards

    Thanks much! These are the tires that come from the factory on the Tremors. They are General Grabbers AT(x). I can't remember the specs, but I want to say they are 265/70 R17. I was quite pleased with them. I've had various AT tires on work trucks, but I have ALWAYS had BFG AT KO on all my...
  4. Tremors and high octane fuel

    I have withheld from posting a response several times this morning, but since the thread is still active on my lunch break, I'll post. Whilst I very much agree with you on school presidents not answering "yes" or "no" and their statement regarding context... Here's why a discussion on this...
  5. Tremors and high octane fuel

    When I bought my ranger this was the case. Most dealerships keep them low. Funny story though... when I bought my F150 last month, I was pulling off the dealer lot. Done deal. My salesman came sprinting across the parking lot flagging me down. He asked if the truck has fuel. I said it had an...
  6. Bug guards

    I used Ford Pass points and bought this. It's the Ford branded AVS Aero Skin Textured. I preferred the textured over the smooth glossy deflectors. Did it deflect bugs? Nah. But it did take the brunt of some thrown gravel and road debris.
  7. Tremors and high octane fuel

    I'll avoid getting into the nitty gritty, but I figured I'd add my experience. I've mentioned this in a couple of MPG threads. Out of curiosity, I ran 93 when the price was right. Nothing noticeable for the first tank, but I was getting results by the first quarter of used fuel in the second...
  8. Anyone getting a 2023 Tremor under msrp?

    It's tough out there for Rangers in general, and like others said, it's even harder for Tremors. They aren't exactly filling up lots and needing to get rid of them to make space for 2024s. F150s are a different story. I purchased My 22 Tremor for $43,000 (MSRP [$43,390]) in March 22. I traded...
  9. In need of running boards

    I had a Tremor and liked the ones that came with the package well enough, but I would definitely have gone with what @Mtnbikes had if I had the option. I like the higher clearance, full length, and grippy texture.
  10. Use a come-along for off road recovery?

    I'm just going to echo others. In general, no, but there are occasions where a comealong will get you out of a pickle. It has for me. I was stuck in a flat muddy area with very little (no) traction. I didn't use a come-a-long to get pulled out, but rather I need help moving forward (and...
  11. Tremor Ford emblems, blue or smoked background?

    I think these smoked chrome and black make a huge difference in appearance. I'm trying to figure out what to do with my F150 emblems now. They are black (not blue), but still have the bright chrome surround and letters.
  12. Tremor Ford emblems, blue or smoked background?

    I have now done this twice (once to put these one, and once to take them off and put the blue back before I sold the truck). I didn't think it was all that bad - I didn't have to remove the grill. But I may be the exception to the rule. I am a pretty small dude and have thin arms, so I just...
  13. front bumper opening

    Just for reference for other readers. Here is the Putco. Two pushtab mounts on top and two strips of 3M tape.
  14. front bumper opening

    Oh yeah - I forgot to address your other question. Like others answered about the M2M, the Putco uses existing mounts that are pre-drilled for the license plate bracket as well at some 3M tape for the rest.
  15. front bumper opening

    Tiny rocks could pass through the honeycomb, but rocks that are of the size to cause any real damage while going down the road will likely by blocked, or at least partially deflected, to not cause damage to the radiator.
