What are your plans with the Ranger?

[Richard Conley]

I would be interested in a cold air induction set up. Not so sure on exhaust as the videos I've heard sound like a old Accord with a coffee can muffler, but I guess you can't make the 4 sound like an 8. For me exhaust sounds need to be almost neutral at cruising speeds - had a Borla car-back on my Mustang that wasn't any louder than stock at 70 and had no drone either. Nice that you are reaching out.

Yeah..I’m more into performance than chrome and led lights...

I definitely have a lot of plans for the new Ranger, but some of the first things I am looking at, along with things I think it would be great to see on Panda's site are:

Yakima rack to work with Retrax/Embark bed cover
Bed Light Options (In bed lights)
Tow Straps/Off Road Recovery Gear (Snatch Straps, Shackles/D-Rings, Factor55 Hitchlink 2.0)
In Cab Dash Mounts for CB/UHF/VHF Radios (I have a Cobra 29 LX and a Baofeng UV-5R that I plan to mount in the Ranger)
Antenna mounts (Bullet Proof Diesel Single and Dual third brake light antenna mounts, https://www.bulletproofdiesel.com/f...-light-antenna-mount-p/90201160_f150_dual.htm, https://www.bulletproofdiesel.com/ford-F150-2015-third-brake-light-antenna-mount-p/90201129_f150.htm)
Air Compressor Mount (Mounting Single or Dual ARB Air Compressor, Air Check Quick Connector Mount)
Redarc Tow Pro Trailer Brake Controller
SideBar Bed Rail Cargo management System

Just some of my ideas and things I would also like to purchase for my Ranger!

I love the idea of the third break light antenna system but damn that’s expensive

Yeah, unfortunately those are dang expensive. But to have a very finished looking system, no holes drilled, etc...it still looks like the preferred mount to me. Just wish they were a bit cheaper!

Maybe Panda can do an affordable version for us

We are starting our tune development next week!

We have many LEDs in stock for the ranger!

Also next week we are mocking up 3d printed brackets to test fit our light bar locations!

Leveling kit or suspension we are adding options weekly!

Happy to assist!

I will have my team look at a few options or brands to add to get more truck accessories added to the site! Thank you for the recommendations

Do you have LEDs for the headlamps?

It doesn't seem like it should be that expensive. It is just a piece of plastic with a gasket and an antenna mount attached. Those prices seem ridiculous!

I think it's milled aluminum to handle the stress of whipping antennas but still, shouldn't be over a $100 these days with the abundance of CNC machines. I could design/build in 3D it but don't have scanning tools to get the dimensions right. Protolabs could make anything quickly according to your design. Cost could come down if hundreds were ordered from them.

True - but still - $329 for that is insane. I could see $100 if it were aluminum.

Yeah, they are definitely a metal mount, aluminum I believe! Issue is they are also the only ones on the market with these I believe, so not a lot of competition! They do however also come with the NMO mounts already attached and feet of coax with them, but still, it is too hefty of a price tag for what I think they should charge...
