Thanks everyone. I'll still pop in from time to time. Lol.. Well the build date on the F150 is 1/12/22, so it sat in a staging lot waiting 8 months for chips. Still smells like a brand new truck. Fingers crossed though.

Saw this over on the F150 forums. This was one of the most irritating things the ranger would do in winter time, flippimg to fresh air every 10 min... Maybe it will work for you guys. I just did it on my F150 but it'll be months before I can test it. If you want to give disabling it a try...

The decision to trade the Ranger in was not the easiest to make. I was torn between making yet another attempt to get it fixed to get another Ranger. Unfortunately There isn't any available within 100 miles that I would have been happy with. Then there's the need for more room. This truck...

Traded it in. No more mildew.

The only reason they would deny warranty with a tune flashed is if the tune was found to be the cause of the failure that the truck was being brought in to have repaired. Yes dealers can see that the ECU has been flashed but can't see what tune file is on it. You could just get the Ford tune...

I have the 5* tune with Ford Premium Care extended warranty. Have had the 93 performance tune on for 17K miles now and not a single issue. So far not worried for long term issues with it. Most third party warranties don't exclude possible damage when after market items are installed. I had one...

One would think, but a a very large number of us discovered that the dealership's make ready departments couldn't even properly check the air pressure in the tires. There's no way those clowns would know how to properly check the transmission fluid level.

Not really digging the front end of the 2023 Ranger. It looks like they just slapped a cheesy plastic push bar cover over the bumper and grill. Kinda like a kid with Legos that keeps adding stuff till it's just a tad too much. Oh sure it looks good to him, to me though? Not so much. But then...

Check to make sure the brake line mounts are secure where they bolt to the knuckle and inner fenders. Reach up in there and give everything a little wiggle to see if you can replicate the squeak. If not may also want to check the anti-rattle clips and caliper pins. You can apply some anti-seize...

LOLZ! Daily.. Sometimes more frequently depending on how sweaty I get.. Houston heat/humidity and all ya know.

It was their outsourced tint guy actually. It was discovered that the service sent out a brand new tint installer after they 1st window was replaced. They had pictures of the window install before tint and the driver's side defroster tab was attached. After the tint was installed the tab got...

Oh yes it is... So it baked in the sun at 100 degrees for 8 hours after the turd floater storm and nothing... Picked it up went home and it dumped another .75" rain last night and I get in it this morning... Nothing... no mildew smell. Fricken truck.. I swear.

Tell me about it... It took Ford a combined total of 5 months to get the replacement glass in for the rear window. They had to replace it twice so far due to leaks and careless techs who broke the defroster.

Well, that would explain why the dealerships can't get parts delivered in a timely manner to honor warranty claims...

Well I did ask them to let it bake in the sun for a few hours and go take a whiff before I come get it. Maybe just hasn't been hot enough for it to start smelling since last night.

So they leak tested it... And we had the 1st big rain storm last night in months that dropped 2-3 inches. The truck was supposedly parked outside and they checked it this morning. No mildew smell.... I just don't get it... It spits on the truck and it reeks like sour laundry. Others have...

I've done that a couple times myself. Started driving and was all "What the hell's wrong with this damned thing?!?! " Then remember I had shut the lights off while working in Forscan or something like that and completely forgot I'd done so the next time I drove at night.

OOPS... ?

Dropped it off at the dealer... Again.. To fix a water leak.. Again... This will be the third leak it has been in for. Damned thing is worse than a sieve..

Thought about it and was looking at the F150's but there isn't squat available at the dealers. What they do have they won't budge on the sticker to give me X-plan. All the dealerships I have been to so far said I will need to put one on order and wait for who knows how long until it actually...
