  1. 2024 Tacoma – Here's The New Competition! 🥊 Now With Hybrid Model

    I’ve been thinking about your “never been to the mountains” comment. From my time in Colorado, I understand that everybody who lives there thinks that they are the only people with mountains. The fact is that only a part of your state has mountains, the other part does not. Also, being careless...
  2. Tow longevity

    And, the author of that says he is an RV enginerd which caused me to question myself.
  3. Tow longevity

    Thanks, and that’s what I believe. I’ve seen online where some people interpret that SAE J2807 allows for around 70lbs of hitch to be taken off of payload (because it’s factored into the standard), it’s confusing. In this article, Myth 7 is what I am referring to...

  5. Tow longevity

    This has confused me under weight for some time. The equipment, I think, includes 70 lbs for a hitch. If you have a 100 lbs hitch, do you only add 30 lbs hitch weight to payload and allow 70 lbs to tongue weight or is it still all 100 lbs to hitch weight and payload?
  6. 2024 Tacoma – Here's The New Competition! 🥊 Now With Hybrid Model

    Did you miss the “for me” part. A 6000 lbs trailer with a 6400 lbs towing capacity gives a 6.6% reserve. That’s probably okay at sea level. The same trailer on the Ranger gives you a 25% reserve but, with a WDH you probably can’t exceed ~12% tongue weight with passengers and, a nearly empty...
  7. 2024 Tacoma – Here's The New Competition! 🥊 Now With Hybrid Model

    in my case, my trailer runs about 5500-6000lbs loaded. That is just not enough for me, especially at altitude. The payload is great for the WDH though.

    I think they are going after the overlanders.

    On line it says you might be able to clean. Soak it over night in carb cleaner but ensure that any electrical connectors are protected.

    The payload is fantastic, ~1700 lbs. The towing is unacceptable, 6400 lbs, which knocks it out of contention for me.
  11. SSM 49264 - Climate Control Temperature Will Not Adjust With Clicking/Snapping Noise From The Dash

    Every time a Land Rover, Range Rover, Jaguar, Lancia, or Fiat goes by with the windows up, I get a little bit more upset at Ford.
  12. Remote Transmission Dip Stick Aftermarket Support?

    If you tell me the part number I’ll see if Walmarts out of stock price is better.

  15. 2024 Tacoma – Here's The New Competition! 🥊 Now With Hybrid Model

    So, just saw this. Ford’s reveal was far superior, in fact it keeps revealing. First reveal was no rebound control in the shocks, then A/C failure, then transmission shuttering/ DPFE sensor, and one day EGR and turbo failure. Can’t wait for the camera to start acting up. Ford’s 2019 Ranger...
  16. Bucking/Surging Epidemic

    My truck started doing this some time ago and, I was annoyed. Then my wife complained and I got really annoyed so in these forums I learned about the DPFE sensor. I saw that some people said it stopped shuddering when they accelerated more briskly or the RPMs raised like from shifting into...
  17. SSM 49264 - Climate Control Temperature Will Not Adjust With Clicking/Snapping Noise From The Dash

    I learned that this “modern” engine had an EGR after the purchase. Pretty disappointing. The rear sliding window is another one if the locking clip breaks. I guess the only thing left to learn is that there is a rear mounted timing belt with an internal water pump. I can only hope. At least I...
  18. SSM 49264 - Climate Control Temperature Will Not Adjust With Clicking/Snapping Noise From The Dash

    So, air conditioner failed at 40,000 miles. Re set attempts failed and just attempted the blend door actuator motor replacement at ~41,000 miles without success. Ford knows it has a problem: they designed, resourced, installed, and then identified the issue. Their hope is that owners encounter...
  19. Installed Thule rack today

    I was going to make a recommendation but since a stupid videappears in the comment box covering the text exerytime I try to type I’m giving up.
