What’s your favorite cheap Ranger accessory?

[av8r]

This is the way. Especially if you are not running default "Normal" settings.

Yep. Y'all are probably running a different setup on the R button anyway.

Yeah, Comfort steering, sport for the rest and no ASS...Lol

Nah, set it up on the R button and double press when you start the truck. Save $99.

RR has the programmable R button. So for other trims it's $99+tax or try to remember to press the disable button after start.

The 20 dollar disabler from ebay or amazon that works just as well as the 100 dollar one.

For people who are ok with not having a brand name

Sorry but yes, and no thanks , I guess I just don’t want to have to mess with pushing anything but the start button every time I drive my truck and I do simply expect that it will not to die on me, every time I stop at an intersection, that sort BS just really sets me off. Lol

I figure odds are if a person can afford a $40K-$60k truck, then a $100 bucks isn’t going to break them.

IMO, That $100 bucks is very well spent, if it means that my $60k investment doesn’t piss me off every time I come to a stop. Lol

With my 24’ model RR it was one of the very first ones out, several weeks prior to a clear cut aftermarket solutions like the start stop eliminator came to market for the new 24 model Rangers.

So , there was a short time, that I had to try and rember to hit one of those buttons.

Which quite often didn’t happen, least not till after the truck shutoff on me at the first stop light that I came to. Lol

Which typically was followed by several expletives, till I found and pushed one of those two buttons to shut that ASS crap off. lol

So , I have bought and installed that same $99 start stop eliminator into all 5 Rangers that I now own, even the 3, that I don’t typically drive myself.

IMO , Still Worth every penny to me. lol

Curious?
Got a link ?
‘I would like to check that out.

I would be curios if it installs the same way as the $99 version I have been buying off Amazon, or if it’s one where you have to tear the whole center console out of the truck to install it inline with the ASS switch in the console.

With that latest install of the $99 version which plugs inline behind the glove box, we have the install time down to under 5 min start to finish.

To bad Ranger Hobb deleted himself. Cheap gawdy stuff was his forte.

Ruby red so I ordered gloss black Tufskinz. About $78 after shipping. I have Tufskinz on my F150 and they are really nice. Next up would be dash cam and hood struts.

The EPA, under Lee Zeldin, is looking at ending auto start-stop tax credits to manufacturers. Auto start-stop is to say the least not a consumer favorite, and with no financial encouragement to be an environmental steward is most likely over. I am ordering 4D Tech from Amazon. This install is relatively easy even with my large hands. Check out the video for what it takes to put one in my wife's 2024 Escape Hybrid.

No one mentioned that they couldn't afford $100 (other than you). Saving $100 on things like this are why some of us can pay cash for a new truck when we want one. Pick up those pennies and pretty soon you have dollars.

Enjoy your truck.

Wasn't sure where you were going with it other than telling me how I was wasting my money.

Either way, I am good with having the start stop eliminator on my trucks.
I am just saying I will gladly pay the $100 to shut the ASS off and have it stay off.

Feel free to pinch your own penny's any way you choose. LOL

I believe quite a few agree with me, since it is a very popular mod around here.

Just ordered one from 4D Tech. If you look at the history of auto start-stop, it was a letter suggestion from a guy in the Bronx to Popular Science magazine during the era of leaded gas and growing air pollution concerns. Toyota later brought it to life and others followed suit, especially with EPA tax incentives for manufacturers that is apparently going to go away. I also pay cash for new vehicles; and yes, pennies do add up that allow it. Wonder what we will do now, since pennies will no longer be minted?

If i remember right, i pulled up the button assy and plugged the a/s/s delete deal inline with thr switch and then ran a wire to the fuse box where it used its fuse jumper to plug in.

Price went up, its 35 now
