  1. RAPID RED Ranger Club Thread

    Just the ones that come with the Lariat trim.
  2. RAPID RED Ranger Club Thread

    This ARB Summit bar has been happening lately (I need to take better pics)
  3. Theory on fuel in oil.

    Fair enough. I'd likely feel the same with this experience. Sorry to hear it.
  4. Theory on fuel in oil.

    I'm not being a fanboy by saying, just by the numbers, this seems an exception not a trend. It seems silly to use this example and paint all Ford's with it. If you like the format, it seems like there are options. I guess I don't know the value of a deal that puts you with a suboptimal rig...
  5. Theory on fuel in oil.

    This may have been asked earlier but why don't you trade it in for a 2022? If there's no warranty-able issues and you like the format, surely they will give you close to full value on it. Esp w used car resale values being what they are right now.
  6. Big MPG hit after MBRP exhaust install, looking at new tune

    I'm trying the battery unplug reset test tonight. If that doesn't work I'm replacing the oxygen sensors (both) and a replacement Air Charge Temp Sensor. Absolutely nothing says there's anything wrong with these things but I'm shooting in the dark here. I've certainly spent more running it...
  7. Big MPG hit after MBRP exhaust install, looking at new tune

    Okay I'll play. Why would a single data point averaged over a 14 gallon tank be more meaningful or produce better data than multiple data points sourced from multiple tanks - some from the same tank and some from different tanks? If data varied widely between tanks I might agree but it...
  8. Big MPG hit after MBRP exhaust install, looking at new tune

    What even IS gas milage bros? It's just an ethereal figure right? GTFO with that.
  9. Big MPG hit after MBRP exhaust install, looking at new tune

    Best I can say is the route is flatish, I choose times to drive it during low traffic periods and interruptions are low. And I supplement with alternate less controlled tracks that reflect similar controls - and predictably return similar findings. Some of them are significantly longer. A...
  10. Big MPG hit after MBRP exhaust install, looking at new tune

    Because I can do math? Because there has been no observable model that gets worse before it gets better? Things do change with time. They often start better and after a period settle back to being crappy. I make a change, I start logging, I get encouraging results. I continue to observe...
  11. Big MPG hit after MBRP exhaust install, looking at new tune

    I concur there is benefit to keeping changes on there longer, let the system settle in. However it doesn't take a thousand miles / month to demonstrate meaningful behavioral changes, even with a tune. If it did our rigs would spend a lot more time in the mechanics. They're automobiles, not...
  12. Big MPG hit after MBRP exhaust install, looking at new tune

    Maybe. I'm giving it a few days to a week between big changes for the past 2 months. I dunno. I haven't done the battery disconnect/reset thing. Maybe I'll give that a whirl. Can't hurt.
  13. Big MPG hit after MBRP exhaust install, looking at new tune

    It's on cruise control for the tests I don't know how many times I gotta say it.
  14. Big MPG hit after MBRP exhaust install, looking at new tune

    Circling back on this, I didn't fix for it. MPG bombed out to 12 or 13mpg and just lived there. Since I posted this I have - Replaced the MBRP with a Borla S-type muffler (2.75in). No change in milage. - Installed a Mishimoto Cold Air Intake kit. No change in milage. - Gone through all 3...
  15. Anyone installing CB/ Ham radio and/or NMO antenna mount on your new Ranger?

    That is a real clean install I love it.
  16. Big MPG hit after MBRP exhaust install, looking at new tune

    Highway. With cruise. That's my baseline. Like, there's a bunch that still doesn't make sense in my summary when I look back on it. But I'm busy enough and pleased enough right now, not to dig further just now. For what it's worth though, I got better MPG after the FPP tune, even from the...
  17. 2019 Ranger Solid Axle Swap

    This is the longest swap in history.
  18. Tire shop can’t align my Ranger properly.

    Look for a shop that will do a "max caster alignment". That phrase specifically. That will usually get the conversation on the right path. This immediately got woah woah woahs from Les Schwab and Pep Boys and in both cases they referred me to more reputable shops. They cost a little more -...
