  1. Sync 3 v3.4 Build 21098

    Yup. TraveLink was broken again on my way home from work after posting this.
  2. Sync 3 v3.4 Build 21098

    My '19 Ranger w/501A updated to 21098 OTA. Sirius travelink appears to have been fixed on my vehicle (previously was inoperable on 21020). Hopefully the fix sticks.
  3. HOT PEPPER RED Ranger Club Thread

    Just washed and waxed after nearly 9 months, a cross country road trip, and an out of state move!
  4. Led Headlight bulbs

    I'm not sure if this has been covered already in this thread, but does anyone know what the color temperature of the OEM Lariat LED headlights is?
  5. Electric F150 Lightning

    Very excited for this upcoming truck, and am hoping that this tech eventually makes its way downmarket to the midsize segment.
  6. Distorting door speaker.

    I had this same problem on my 2019 Lariat w/ B&O audio. My driver's side door had a buzz which sounded like it was originating somewhere behind the top 1/3rd of the door card. The noise was associated with a very narrow bass frequency range, and would go away if I pulled on the door grab handle...
  7. I will keep my gas powered Ford Ranger until the wheels fall off.

    I agree, people in third world countries should strive to improve their working conditions, but this appears to be extraneous to the current discussion ?
  8. I will keep my gas powered Ford Ranger until the wheels fall off.

    From rare earth mines, which cause an unfortunate localized environmental impact, but thankfully not a cumulative global one.
  9. I will keep my gas powered Ford Ranger until the wheels fall off.

    From the electric grid, which is powered by a combination of hydrocarbon, nuclear, and renewable generation installations, all of which are significantly more efficient than a typical IC engine.
  10. I will keep my gas powered Ford Ranger until the wheels fall off.

    The Tesla supercharger network currently allows you to drive on any major US interstate with the option to quickly recharge generally every 150 miles on average. The technology is here, now, and is expanding. I do agree with the two great points you made previously regarding the costs of these...
  11. I will keep my gas powered Ford Ranger until the wheels fall off.

    I think the point of this image is to remind everyone that a portion of our electricity is generated by fossil fuels, but I think a nuance that gets lost often is that stationary gas and coal generation is significantly more thermally efficient than a mobile IC engine without exhaust energy...
  12. I will keep my gas powered Ford Ranger until the wheels fall off.

    I too remember that very hilarious South Park episode, but I don't think that stereotype necessarily applies universally anymore. In my experience (I know, I know, anecdotes...) the hybrid owners I know fall into three categories: People who don't give an F about cars and just want the...
  13. I will keep my gas powered Ford Ranger until the wheels fall off.

    Having driven several EVs owned by friends and by my place of work, I am personally very excited to own an EV pickup truck. Some pros, as I see them, are: Throttle response and torque delivery at low RPMs High peak torque Higher control frequency allows finer traction control, or more effective...
  14. Ford Performance Tune - Update

    I updated my tune, verified that the file ID changed in the ProCal app on my PC, and flashed the update to my truck. After updating, I can't say I've noticed any huge differences in power or drivability -- both remain greatly improved over the stock calibration. It was worth the 30mins of work...
  15. Lariat Owners who have Upgraded from Stock LED Fog Lights -- Thoughts?

    Perfect -- back roads and off road are exactly my use case. I leave mine off 95% of the time. Thanks a ton for the input!
  16. Lariat Owners who have Upgraded from Stock LED Fog Lights -- Thoughts?

    Do you have any issues with fog light aiming and blinding oncoming drivers with the SS3 Max? I am looking at those, but intend to use them on the road occasionally and don't want to be a nuisance.
  17. fox 2.0 vs icon stage 1 kit

    I also have the Fox 2.0/FPP setup and really like it. I prefer a softer calibration on my trucks since I tend to do more crawling type off-road activities rather than desert running. The Fox kit is nice and compliant off road at low speeds and is very stable and comfortable on road. I'd...
  18. Ford Performance Tune towing issue / lawsuit

    A happy outcome for me, personally, would be if FPP released an updated tune that maintains the OEM and FPP warranties while towing. I would be willing to trade off a nominal amount of power and torque for this. I like the fact that the FPP tune has been developed in conjunction with the OEM and...
  19. Lariat Owners who have Upgraded from Stock LED Fog Lights -- Thoughts?

    Just curious to see if there are any options to get a little more light output from the stock fog location, mostly for the purposes of occasional nighttime driving off-road or in desert/rural areas. I understand that adding light sources up high is better for off-road stuff, but don't need or...
  20. Lariat Owners who have Upgraded from Stock LED Fog Lights -- Thoughts?

    To those of you who have upgraded from the Lariat's stock LED fogs to an aftermarket options, I have the following questions: What is your use case for the fog lights? (Off road lights, weather lights, etc.) To which brand and model did you upgrade? Do you feel that the upgrade resulted in a...
