I have a 22 SuperCrew XLT Tremor. So far 8.4K miles.. not a big time driver. Only issue has been the missing engine cover and tailgate helper.

Nope, 31k, been at the dealer a bit, just got it back in fact, still love the truck.

I just hope that the parts that fail are replaced by an updated part, not the same failure prone parts.

I am stoked though, they finally fixed the brakes, they replaced the HCU, apparently it was not communicating with the ECU :facepalm:

OK, all you folks that are driving their 5G's only 4 or 5 thousand miles a year, Log out of this forum, yes you read that right, and jump in the Ranger and drive it! Combating global warming is a team effort, it takes all of us!

There is too much sunlight coming down and we need more hydrocarbons in the air to "tint" the atmosphere and cool Ma Earth down!

Never trust air that you can't see.

Yea I heard it is but I want to at least try and see once I get to see one at a dealership
Dont hold your breath. I have not seen a new Ranger at my dealership in over 2 years. Although they have at least 6 Broncos.

Corporate drone. Dilbert's world is alive & well.
This update is not my truck, but actually my SIL's. I'm sitting here having a brain fart, but his truck is either a '20 or '21, though I'm about 90% sure it is a '21. He puts a lot of miles on it for his job. It is an XLT Tremor.

We all met out in the sticks to go on a hike yesterday. Afterwards, while enjoying the well earned brew at a local brewery, we briefly talked tires as he has to reshoe his Ranger ASAP. I asked how many miles his truck has now. Well come to find out, it turned 80K yesterday morning while they were heading to the trail head to meet us. 80K and not one flipping problem. Not one. Zip. Zero. Goose egg. Not a single thing. Period.

He loves his truck. Certainly not anal about it like I am. He's a "pay someone else to do whatever it needs only when I have to" guys. So I can't claim the lack of trouble is due to his over the top maintenance schedule. But trouble free it has been.

I don't have any empirical data to support my suspicions, but it seems these trucks are long ball hitters. Those that drive greater than 12-15,000miles/yr or more seem to have fewer issues than those driving 10,000 mi/yr or less. I have 58,000 on mine since I picked it up May 5th 2021; I love driving it. I did the headrest recall, blend door fix and the 23-2350TSB. I do a Quick Lane works package every 6,000 miles even though the oil life is usually still in the mid 30s%. i do very little stop and go driving where I live, and now retired we take frequent overnight and 3-4day trips in it. Otherwise it will sit in the garage for 2-4 days while we use our 2009 Mariner for errands. I don't tow anything, and "drive it like I own it."
It gets washed 2-3 times a month, incl. the "lava shine" and I hand polish it once a year with 303 Graphene; good upper body workout for my 74 year old shoulders.
