Welll. you have options. this is for 4 door. Only the Heritage comes standard with a hardtop. The Badlands (non SAS) is basically the Bronco version of a Wrangler Rubicon) 1. Factory softtop (usually best to buy Bronco with hardtop and then buy a softop from a Bronco owner) 2. Factory...

the Bronco 2.7 uses the 10R60. Maybe the same family. There is no weekly, if not daily, tranny problems posts on the Bronco forum.

Voted no, but did replace fluid and DPFE. Tranny started acting up again 6 months before my extended warranty expired. I lost faith and gave up at 76,000 miles and traded for a new 2024 Bronco.

Not if but when. Having lost faith in the tranny, and not really in need of a pick up truck, back in July I traded my Ranger for a new Bronco Badlands

As several have mentioned, vocational schools might have a good idea for trends in your area. Not sure how Colorado does education, but in Ohio most school districts are involved with multi-district vocational schools for high schoolers during the day and adult training in the evening. Not...

An interesting note on parking EVs in a garage. Good friends just downsized and bought a condo with one parking space in the underground garage. Would have been great as they travel for months at a time using their other vehicle - their Nissan Leaf would be inside and protected. Whoops...

All great info above. as a novice myself pulling a small trailer, the sentence "The Ranger didn’t even notice that it was towing!", is very import and needs to be followed up with "the driver cannot forget that they are towing" . While the trailer is always in your rear view mirror, without...

I understand your frustration. Owned and DD a 1990 Jeep YJ for 6 years from 2005 to 2011. Had the same crappy type of of lug nuts. Was shocked, dismayed and maybe a little upset when my brand spanking new 2019 Ranger came with the same crappy type of lug nuts ( am mine has the black out...

Definitely call first, and ask a lot of direct questions. Went that route in February of 2020 to purchase and have installed the trailer brake controller. They said 2 hours for install, so I asked for a first thing in the morning install and I said I would wait. 20 minutes after handing them...

"I could save myself, after tax and shipping, just over $300 by not including the RCI replacement." and "decent driving skills and good lines have spared me so far." Interesting comments. That price is most likely less than 1 percent of what you paid for your vehicle. Its a one time insurance...

Not a Ranger, nor block heater, but years ago I used a lower radiator hose heater in my 1990 YJ 4 cylinder. It started easier and warmed up quicker. 1. Only used when below 30 degrees 2. Used a timer, not a Christmas tree timer, but a heavy duty one. Heater only needed 1.5 hours to warm up...

From years gone by. Mesa overlooking Alvord playa.

I ain't worried. I owned 3 Pintos from 1977 to 1986. I drove at least 150,000 miles between the 3 of them.

I am new to this Grandpa gig, as the first grandkid just turned 20 months. He was spending the night with us, and he spied me checking the tire air pressure for the Ranger. I showed him how the valve stem cap screwed off and on as I finished the 3rd tire. Repeated it on the 4th tire and...

Generally, when using a Ford plan, the dealer is compensated one way or another. The employee pricing A/Z plan is a little over 7% off of MSRP. the below link is just a random dealership explaining the plans and providing a made up example of how it works. From doing a little research it looks...

Private equity firm Acon Investments purchased True Value in 2018 and ended its time as a cooperative retail chain. https://thehardwareconnection.com/true-value-explores-potential-sale-amid-active-offers/

Good luck with whatever you try. I got lazy and had a dealership do a tranny fluid change. Since I have Shrockwork skid plates, I removed them so they wouldn't have any reason to complain. Picked the truck up near the end of their service hours, drove 40 minutes home and got out of the...

" How well do any of these hold up while heavily loaded and bouncing around off-road ?? " I had a pair installed for about 20,000 miles. A lot of miles on dirt and gravel roads of varying quality and several hundred miles on some bumpy trails. Mine carried recovery straps, ropes, and...

I installed the Firestone Destination XT, 255/75/17 in August. Just returned from a 5,000 mile road trip - Ohio to Glacier NP, south to Moab and then back home. Had about 500 miles on the tires before heading out. Ran smooth on the interstate, didn't throw rocks like my BFG KO2's would on the...

A few vehicles back, when I started using full synth, I reverted back to my youth and just do the 6 months or 6,000 mile oil change. A little bit easier these days, as you don't have to jam an oil spout into that damned metal topped cardboard container anymore..
