Hello. Have you tackled your Rostra install yet? I'm really interested in your progress with this solution and your camera choice; I really like how Rostra seems to integrate with sync3. I was told this wasn't going to work on the 5g ranger, what are your findings? Thank you.

I have it installed with 2 cameras (Left and front). It does work, but I haven't finished yet, so I haven't updated the build.

That being said, there are a couple if things that I don't like. Since there is no alternative that I know of, I would still install if I had to do it over, though.

1) The setting to automattically change to front camera under 10mph is actually from 5-15mph. Doesn't come on till 5mph and turns off above 15mph. this should be 0 - 10 mph in my opinion.

For off road it is fine, because you can just change to that camera and leave it on, but with the time it takes to change to the front camera it isnt very useful for parking, etc.

2) There is no option to adjust the timing for changing to the left/right cameras with turn signals. It stays on the left camera for approx. 2 seconds after turning the blinker off.

I wrote to rostra support and they verified there is no way to change those settings.

I'll update some pictures in a few minutes.

Added my tunes from @5startuning , front grill inserts, more decals, and the auto folding mirror module (Thanks @RCMUSTANG !)

I'm sure I can get my 1/4 mile time down by at least 1/10 of a second so I can have a 13 second ranger ?

I did it! 13 second ranger! And, based on the times at lower speeds, I think I can shave off some more fractions of a second. ?

My next target is 4 second 0-60, I'm soo close.

Update: 4.8 0-60 time

What rims do you have? I really like them! Are they the OEM rims with some mods done to them?

I'm at 5000 miles now, and put it on around 1000, I think? No issues. It really woke up the exhaust, which the MBRP is a mild toned exhaust. I wouldn't want it combined with an aggressive exhaust.
