I've been using the Motorola AA wireless adapter for almost 4 years now and have had no problems with it.

There's another way to look at the numbers and I suspect it's more how Ford views them. The percentage increase on overall smaller volume isn't that important. Amortization of development costs, model year update costs, and warranty costs over a smaller base means that Ranger is not a...

I want to thank everyone for all the good information supplied. It has really helped to sharpen my focus. I just turned 73 and told my wife I want to have one more new/newer truck with all the bells and whistles. I'm in good health and still physically active so maybe I'll get more than one...

I bought mine used. so it is what it is. I've since learned that, to get a 2020 Lariat with adaptive cruise, etc., the original buyer would have needed to select the 501A package instead of the standard 500A package or possibly specify those options individually. I use the Motorola adapter for...

The bed length was an issue for me as well, but I keep a DeeZee cargo box at the front of the bed so my useful bed length is actually only 4' 7". I can move that box to the back seat of a 6G since I also don't really need the back seat and I'll still have the same useful length.

Nope, not assuming I'm in the clear. That's why I have the ESPP to cover me for another few years.

I'm going to cross-post this in the 6G forum as well, but thought I'd start here first. For those who've replaced (or added to) a 5G with a 6G, what did you gain, and what did you lose? I'm thinking about replacing my 2020 Lariat SuperCab with a 6G, but it's hard to tell just by content...

I'm not interested in the politics, either, but I do have some insight that maybe others don't. I have served on the town Finance Committee and was serving at the time our engines were approved by Town Meeting. I also serve as the chair for the town Financial Management Planning Committee, which...

I have to respectfully disagree, at least in part. No state has the resources to manage all forested land. All they can do is try to manage the areas that pose the most direct threat to people. Wind and weather can easily negate those efforts. I lived in Los Angeles in the late 70's and early...

Here is some context from the Hudson Valley Weather FB page: Canada doesn't control the weather or the prevailing winds, so anyone suing or threatening Canada has their head firmly lodged in their derriere.

Having worked at the executive level in a large corporation, it won't surprise me at all if Ford has 2 or 3 consecutive years of improved quality and then decides that now the AI systems have been properly trained and those human engineers are now expendable again.

It sounds to me like they were hired back to train their replacements. I wouldn't be counting on a lot of job security if I were one of them.

Living in New England, it would be downright blasphemous to treat an OBS as a daily driver. I had a '92 XLT Lariat with only 63K on the clock as of 2021, when I sold it for $26K. I see them still out there but the ones that are still working for a living or being daily drivers are usually in...

Not gonna lie - I have option envy. My wife's car is a 2018 Fusion AWD Platinum with every option available in that model year, from what I can see. It's a nice car and I like the fact that it has driver memory settings, among other nice features like ventilated front seats. I have a 2020...

When I got mine, which included cancelling the ESPP from my Maverick, I called them. The woman I dealt with was very good and everything went as it should have.

To check fitment across vehicles, you'll need to know the lug pattern, center bore, width, and offset of the wheels. If you have a part number from when you got them, you should be able to look all that up online.

I used to own a shop that sold tires and wheels, among many other truck and offroad products. We had many a customer come in after buying aftermarket wheels complaining of vibration. Very few of them knew the center bore dimension of the wheels they'd purchased, so we usually measured the center...

I ran a BedRug in my 2012 F-350 and used that truck frequently to haul rusty car parts. The BedRug held up well and still looked good when I sold the truck in 2020. I also ran a BedRug in my 2022 Maverick, doing weekly dump runs. It still looked good 3 years later when I traded the Maverick for...

I'm going to take a swing at this using the parts the OP recommended. I'll use my old shop to do it so we can document the installation for everyone else. The rest of the parts are due in tomorrow and then I'll schedule the install, so it'll be a couple of weeks before it's done. I've always had...

Installed the TMAT bed slide... You can't clearly see them in the photo, but the kit came with blocks that set into the star-shaped holes in the mat. They fit nicely in the recess in each side of the DeeZee box, which I can now slide clear of the tonneau cover when I need to open it. The...
