So because mine is push to start and you need to press the brake to start it, you wouldn’t even notice it in mine.

Also, I back into my spot at work. Maybe it’s whatever gear you were last in before parking? Just speculating, but it makes me feel better I’m not alone here lol
I don't

Again, something I don't have I got the key start. Along with reverse not being my gear of choice.

Thanks for all the input! That all makes a lot of sense.

I was looking through my pictures and realized that I really don’t have many good shots of her and should really change that! The color is really amazing when the sun hits it just right.

I think it definitely looks better here on the Ranger than on the Bronco. The Ranger has more curves which makes it so the light can hit more angles at once as opposed to the flat slabs of the Bronco.

Here’s one from shortly after

A couple after some light off-roading:

And one that really shows the light hitting it:

Goodness that green look premium.
As for the slight movement, I’ve noticed my truck does a similar motion when remoter start is used. It’s slightly more Bucky if I parked in the dirt and left it in 4H.. hasn’t really been extra concerned about it.. yet since I’m still under warranty and I’ve been a good boy not modding it in a way that would cause voiding it to be a concern..
when I had a bmw 335 (which I gave to my ex years ago…hated that car but I liked the cinnamon red interior/white exterior…looked good but it sucked… still better than a Mercedes tho?.) it would buck slightly when started (not remotely)…
To me it’s a non issue (I guess until it is an issue.)
Airline tech doesn’t seem too bothered by it. So until he says be frightened…I’m no esscared ?

Haha we found a hole-in-the-wall burger joint after the off-road adventure and had to give it a try!

Don’t worry, good boy got his own food. He was just finished with it by this point and was looking over our food for “safety”
That’s a good boy. He knows the packs gotta eat.

Original post is not about key start or push to start. It's when OP remote starts with the key fob. Now, I know our XL models don't have push to start or remote start with the key fob, but we can remote start with the Ford Pass app on our phone.

My post might have been confusing. I was just throwing possible scenarios out that the issue could happen that were different from my experience.

I don't think remote start really has anything to do with it, it is just the transmission settling in (Fluid Flow) and or Transfer Case (Settling In) at engine start. And slightly rocking the truck.
We need to worry when it decides to pop itself into drive on its own.

EDIT: I want to clarify - Kill-Dozer is ref to the 1974 Movie, not the Colorado Incident in 2004
