  1. How big is too big?

    Oh man - you stirred memories with your 74 Chevy Wagon. Even though I drive a Ford, Chevrolets back then were awesome. We had a 1963 Chevrolet Impala Station Wagon (blue with white trim) when I was a wee lad and that thing was bullet proof - My dad was with Monsanto (Chemstrand back then) and...
  2. New Zealand TV ad for the Ranger

    I see that Blue Lightning is still an available option. In the US, that colour option stopped after the 2020 model year.
  3. Ford Protect (ESP)

    I used mine for the first time at 37K - center console went dark nothing would play - ASS went away as well. Thought it was the battery (again) - Ford tested it - said it was good. Turns out they had to replace some modules - repairs would have cost over $600.00, but with my Ford ESP, just...
  4. Ford Pass Update

    I have an Android phone and nothing on the APP has changed since I activated the APP when I purchased the vehicle in Feb 2020. Not complaining - everything still works and reports fine.
  5. 2024 Ford Ranger beats 2024 Taco in Motor Trend comparison

    Saw this in today's FA - while I prefer the 5G, it was nice to see the new 2024 Ranger win the MT comparison against the dark side... https://fordauthority.com/2024/04/2024-ford-ranger-beats-2024-toyota-tacoma-in-new-comparison/
  6. We're getting rid of our Ranger & Wrangler soon....

    They are both made at the MAP.
  7. 5g vs. 6g comparison

    I still like the look of the 5G much better than the 6G. The 5G has a distinctive look - you know it's a Ranger - the 6G you have to do a double-take - and it is no longer distinctive from other trucks IMHO.

  11. One Year Review

    Yikes - duh...didn't proof read properly lol $600
  12. One Year Review

    My center console screen went totally dark. Every now and then I could see the date and time, but couldn't power up to listen to radio or blue tooth. I had them test the battery first, since this happened once before and it was a battery issue. (it was replaced under factory warranty)...

  14. Who knew this about the Ford Ranger?

    Additionally, nothing on any cool shirts or hats from Ford Merchandising. Plenty of Mustang, Bronco, F-150, EV, but no Ranger stuff, in spite of Farley's commentary about the Ranger.

    Ok, that is really cool. Thanks for sharing
  16. Who knew this about the Ford Ranger?

    Here's an article in the latest FA: https://fordauthority.com/2024/02/farley-says-ford-almost-pulled-out-of-australia/ It caught my eye, but this is what I found the most interesting - it's an extract from the article - Farley states: “The second highest volume vehicle at Ford is Ranger...
  17. Anyone NOT have problems with the Ranger?

    mark me as a deranged (very) car nut as well. 2020 XL, bought new Feb 2020, 37K, no real issues.

    "Like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. and I thought my God...the genius of that! The genius! The will to do that!" (use of graphene on statues...)
  19. How long did your factory tires last (miles)

    37K Still on the factory Bridgestones - still looking good for now, rotate every 5K
  20. Ford Ranger Sales Down

    Latest FA had this article: https://fordauthority.com/2024/01/ford-ranger-sales-numbers-figures-results-fourth-quarter-2023-q4/ This is my shocked look... My local dealer hasn't had any new Rangers in stock for the past two years at least, save a special order. A couple of used ones, but that...
