  1. What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

    This was actually Friday, not today. lol. My father in-law passed away in November and we've been dealing with his estate. I used his trailer to move a brand new barber chair and...I don't know what to call it...a double walled cabinet for flammable materials from his basement to our house...
  2. Free Motorcraft FL910S Filters

    lol! :) Ford recommends changing the oil once a year, regardless of how little we drive them. The "Change Engine Oil Soon" alert comes up on my screen above the steering wheel every December. Edit: I change the oil filter, too, of course. Many years ago, I worked on a Quincy 325 air...
  3. What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

    As usual, nothing exciting. I went to pick up a couple things a few towns over. The truck is officially 5 years old as of this month and it clicked over 7,000 miles on the way back home. I know I said I need to get out more, but it never happened. lol.
  4. Look at my Ranger parked next to stuff

    This is the life I live. lol. I'm approaching 5 years without a single dent or scratch on my Supercab STX, though. I barely drive it so that helps to keep it in good shape.
  5. *Click/Tone* Every 45 Seconds

    Here in GA the state apparently has no interest in the milage. Many years ago it had to be written on the renewal. I don't know if it monitors my driving other than recording milage, but I drive like an old man anyway. It's driven to the barbershop and maybe a trip or two to the hardware store...
  6. *Click/Tone* Every 45 Seconds

    Nationwide Insurance. It's a policy for vehicles that don't move much like mine. Less money and they're able to see how many miles I put on it per year. I put around 1,200 miles on it every year.
  7. *Click/Tone* Every 45 Seconds

    I just rewatched the video on page one and watched my actuator. Mine is not moving anything like that. The one in the video moves forward, then backwards, then it settles in the middle. Mine moves forward, then moves back to settle in the middle position.
  8. *Click/Tone* Every 45 Seconds

    I 100% agree, but I'm guessing the Smartmiles module uses the modem? I'm not even sure how it would. I forgot to mention I connected the truck to my home WiFi for the first time yesterday. The truck has never had an update in 3.5 years. I just went back in the garage and did a master reset. It...
  9. *Click/Tone* Every 45 Seconds

    Update. I double checked the Nationwide Smartmiles module. I pulled it out again and the truck still moves the actuator every 45 seconds or so. I put it back, pulled the battery cable off, pulled the wire loom off of the modem. I put the battery cable back on and let it sit there with the doors...
  10. *Click/Tone* Every 45 Seconds

    Sorry I haven't given an update on this, I didn't have any time to address it last week. I still need to re-add the truck to the Fordpass app and see if there was any kind of alert. One thing I did check was the Nationwide Smartmiles module that is plugged into the diagnostic port. I removed...
  11. *Click/Tone* Every 45 Seconds

    Just an update. I put the battery cable back on and it's still doing the click/tone thing. I drove it to the hardware store to get a new hot water heater for the house earlier this week and I listened to it in the parking lot, trying to hear it do the click/tone thing, but I wasn't hearing it...
  12. *Click/Tone* Every 45 Seconds

    Holy mackerel, if that's what is causing it, I would happily uninstall the Fordpass app. I don't even use it to begin with. Big, big thanks for the lead. ? I'm wondering if uninstalling the app will be enough to solve it. Maybe I need to delete the Fordpass account before the uninstall, if that...
  13. *Click/Tone* Every 45 Seconds

    2020 Ranger Supercab STX, built in September 2020. You know the sound you'll usually hear from under the hood when you open the driver's side door? I'm guessing it's the fuel pump priming itself. My Ranger gets around 1,200 miles a year on it and I keep a battery minder on it. I could walk...
  14. What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

    Drove it into town to deal with some banking, go to the hardware store and grab a few things in the Walmart. It rolled past 5000 miles on the way home. I'm putting roughly 1,200 miles on it per year. And here it is below in its natural habitat, on the battery minder.* lol. I'm apparently...
  15. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    My collectible Supercab got its yearly oil change today. The reminder alert appears on the dash cluster every December. Current milage is 4,792. I put 1,155 miles on it since last December. It still looks very clean underneath. It has been driven in the rain maybe three times since I got it in...
  16. I am buying my Next Ranger in Thailand!

    This showed up on my YouTube homepage and I thought it was something we all needed to see. Meowey Christmas!
  17. First Encounter in the "Wild" (Ranger's Spotted Megathread)

    Look at that sexy Supercab! ? Makes me want to be a park ranger and wrestle bears over picnic baskets.
  18. What's the fastest you've made it to 10k miles?

    A lot more. ? It got a 2nd wash of the year on Sunday, by the way. No joke, it had so many cobwebs on it, you would have thought it was decorated for Halloween. Look at that clean and collectible Supercab!
  19. What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

    I haven't been on the forum lately because 1. I am the most boring Ranger owner (lol) and 2. I haven't done anything exciting enough to even talk about in the past couple months. I log in and the first thing I see is AZScorpion's totalled Ranger. o_O Glad to see he's OK and glad that they...
