  1. Ford Ranger Lightning!

    There are central planner types in government, especially now, who see everyone moving to the city, selling their cars, renting and using mass transit as the ultimate goal. Forcing EVs on everyone, limiting range of movement, etc is what gets them excited.
  2. Curb rash black package rims

    Yeah, there's that. Although she has it most of the time. I drive my Mustang GT.
  3. Ford Ranger Lightning!

    Not interested until they can get a full charge in the time it takes me to fill a gas tank. Every long trip becomes 50% longer because of all the extended charging stops.
  4. Curb rash black package rims

    Have some curb rash on a rim. It's the black appearance package with the gloss black. I've been looking at the do it yourself kits/paint and wondered if Ford had a kit for this that specifically matched the black of the rims? If not, has anyone tried any specific kit and how did it match?
  5. Newbie leveling questions

    Paid the dealer around 500 for the install, but paid full list for the kit. I love the upgrade. We had the truck about a week before the work was done and myself and my wife noticed the difference in ride quality immediately. Certainly not a cheap upgrade, but I'd do it again.
  6. Photos of towing/loaded with level kit?

    I'm about to get a load of dirt in mine (approx 900-1000 lbs) on Saturday. I can share a pic then. My truck has a 1561 lb payload.
  7. Considering a SuperCab, Anybody Regret Buying a SuperCab?

    I would regret the 5' bed more... everytime I wanted to put lumber or something large in the bed.
  8. Adding push button start?

    I was pretty disappointed in this too. A POS mid level EcoSport we had as a loaner had push button start, but our 2021 XLT truck does not. 2018 Mustang GT (non Premium) has it. I didn't even consider that it wouldn't when we ordered the XLT.
  9. Fox Leveling kit and Payload

    My payload capacity is 1561. I'll be doing halves...
  10. Fox Leveling kit and Payload

    Pretty much decided to go half yards at a time. Forgot that I need to include myself in the payload weight. Just gonna be safe and go that route. My guess is that they do go with healthy half yards based on previous experience there so it will probably be 1,000 lbs in the bed at a half yard...
  11. Fox Leveling kit and Payload

    It's a XLT Supercab 4x4. Yeah, that was a thought too - them being generous on the scoop. We've also had some good rain of late so good chance it is on the top end of their estimate. It's just a quick 6 mile trip and they sell by half yards too. 1 yard should be enough so I'll probably...
  12. Fox Leveling kit and Payload

    Need to get some dirt/compost this weekend. Does the Fox Leveling Kit alter the max payload on the truck? Also, the supplier said the weight of a yard is 1700-1900 lbs for a 50/50 mix. I'm guessing that is right at the top end or a little over the listed payload (can't check - wife has the...
  13. Transmission slipping out of gear?

    Unfortunately, there have been no codes thrown that I know of. I'll find my OBDII reader and see if there are any codes that didn't manifest into a dash light if that's possible. It's something that has happened 3 times in 1700 miles or so, so diagnosing it without it being a common issue...
  14. Transmission slipping out of gear?

    First of all, I am going by a description given by my wife who has been driving the truck most often. The truck appears to drop out of gear while in drive. Gas pedal increases RPMs but no acceleration as if it is in neutral. It has happened 3 times. The first time was on an interstate and...
  15. Got my new Ranger a few days ago, should I keep the purchased extended warranties / maintenance?

    The dealership would not sell them if the average person got their money's worth out of them. They sell them to make money. I have bought 4 new vehicles over the past 20 years (not counting 2 still under standard warranty) and I have never had a situation where I would have used an extended...
  16. I will keep my gas powered Ford Ranger until the wheels fall off.

    Climates change. It happens. If it didn't, we'd be wearing winter coats in July...
  17. vin #

    If I am understanding what you mean, mine does the same thing in the center of the tailgate. I also thought it was strange.
  18. What should I pay?

    There isn't a whole lot of room between invoice and MSRP on these trucks. I was a bit surprised. Look for the price sheet on this board and add it up so you know going in. Those Internet prices are almost always with every possible discount, most of which you wouldn't qualify for unless you...
  19. 5000 mile oil changes?

    Oil is cheap. Engines are expensive.
  20. Installed Fox 2.0s Upfront today (in a parking lot)

    I wonder how long a professional mechanic with a lift would take to do this... I was quoted $520 including alignment for the full kit. Labor rate at the dealer is $130 plus shop fees, etc.
