Thank you. I'll look into the shock replacements, at least for the rear axle since that has come up a few times as the fix.
Welcome, Jeb! It’s a beauty!So after having an unfortunate run in with the state department of health and human services in regards to emmision testing my 2010 Fusion Hybrid I had to get a 'new' vehicle. I test drove a 2019 Tacoma (they want how much for something that drives like an 80s beater?) and a 2019 Canyon 4 cylinder (nice but what is up with those seats and haven't they ever heard of balance shafts?). I couldn't find a local Maverick to test under 2x MSRP. I had my eyes on a 2019 Fusion hybrid as a fill the gap car but decided to test drive a 2021 Ranger on the lot for 50% more than my agreed with the wife budget just to see if I liked it and if I should look for one closer to budget.
It was everything I wasn't looking for. Quad cab, I wanted extended at the most. Sparkly velocity blue when I wanted white or silver. XLT with tech package with FX4 and tow when I wanted an XL 4x4 at most. Tricked out with running boards, hard folding bed cover, and a pair of console vaults (minus lock codes...). It drove beautifully though, truckish yes, but that is likely due to the bouncy a/t tires and me coming from 10 years of car ownership since my last pickup (2004 Ram 1500 quad cab 4x4). The seats were as I expected, comfortable but nothing to rave about. The engine was responsive, idled incredibly smooth. Cab was quite, even with the A/Ts, oh my gosh it had adaptive cruise.
The sales guy seeing my smile and smelling blood didn't take my lackluster refusal and talked me into a 24 hour test drive. The next day I was back to see if they had anything in the US closer to my in brain build that could be transferred and stay under the blue beasts price.
So now I own it.
I've still got a year and 16k miles on the base 3/36k to determine if I want the ford ESP warranty.
I wonder how strange it will be to see a FX4 on Conti Terrain Contact H/Ts....
Welcome Donovan. Nice looking truck.Hello! Just picked up a new to me '21 Lariat Tremor! I say to me but the truck is practically new with only 600 miles! It was purchased new by an older gentleman who sadly got terminal cancer shortly after the purchase and so it sat until recently when he started to liquidate his assets. :-(
He pretty much got all the bells and whistles on it. Lariat 501A pack, spray in bed liner, fold up tonneau cover, rubber floor mats, even added a cat back exhaust. I love it! It's pretty much exactly how I would have ordered it myself!
Haven't had it long so not much has been done to it. Removed the front license plate bracket, got a wireless android auto dongle, and did a bunch of Forscan changes. Have a couple of other plans in mind but those may be a bit down the road.
Take a look!

lol Not if we can help it we're really good at spending others people money on here! ?
Better to ask for forgiveness than permission. ?
At this point she just sighs and rolls her eyes at me. ?
