This is more of a curiousity than a concern, but every now and then I hear a single " ka-ching" sound from outside the truck near the front. For lack of a better description, it sounds like a tiny cash register. It seems to happen at random with the truck parked, (engine off and doors closed), and has done this since I bought the truck new. I don't believe it is the headlight switch as I leave it on Auto, and I have also tried other positions to recreate the sound with no luck. Any ideas?

That's a normal sound, it happens once you join this forum. Your R5G account is automatically linked to your Amazon account and it starts ordering stuff you never knew you needed. ?

Seriously though it's normal and it's the fuel pump. Sometimes when I'm out in the garage you can hear it going off. Also when you open the door and are just getting something out of the truck it'll go off. The truck doesn't have to be running for this to happen.

Each Ranger comes with that Ka Ching sound built into it. It is the sound of you spending $$$ on mods and "stuff" that is a never ending quest.....
