Crap, crap, crapity crap! I’ve been absent for to long. Can’t believe all the fun and popcorn I have been missing!
We've all missed you Al! I have especially since you're the original resistor and it's just not the same without you here. I guess it's foolish to ask if you've seen the light and bought a damper when you were gone? Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. ?

Whenever I have a weak moment Duke (@DukeCanBuildit) always pulls me back from the edge. Still a resistor!

To my great relief it looks like those useless nasty things will still be absent on the 6G Ranger.

Aww, I missed all that fun today.
Can we free Budule? ?
He was a lot of fun and entertaining and just joined this week. He probably just needed RPs help with the manual.
I'd love to see him with a Tesla. :giggle:
All that money for a tesla..............

With no way to check the transmission fluid!!!!!!!!!! ?

The buttons/switches are apparently too complex for the driver? Oh boy, what is going on today?

Any more questions about buttons and they haven't read the manual should be punished. Not sure how, Mod's choice.
North American Rangers do not have manuals available, 10-spd automatics only. Ford reasoned that most people can't read the symbology engraved on a manual shifter and so made automatics the only choice. I've included the following guide on,
How To Read A Manual
Fig. 1: What is this? A musical chairs diagram! Players I &2 share a chair, then 3&4 and 5&6 share the next two chairs and finally "R" for return to start over.

Too complicated!
Fig 2: Much simpler, and easier to understand at a glance.

All I had to do to permanently disable auto stop/start, apparently, was wait for winter. Truck hasn't shut itself off since October.
You have to physically turn the key to "Off." It won't stop running until you do.

Chris figure 1 is wrong they do still make a manual. Works great too. ??

I think it was inevitable, but I may have given him a little nudge out the door. ? He didn’t appreciate my input. Sorry to ruin everyone’s fun!

Key works just fine. I'm talking about shutting itself off at red lights. Hasn't done that since the weather got cold.

I was being humorous, like you haven't shut your truck off in five months. ?
