Right, it's been determined elsewhere (I think in this thread) that '26 models don't have the connector.

That's the V-series, right?

You missed out on the sale that ended June 26. Ask your dealer if they can still offer the same price. My CX was something like $500 off.

I've been happy with these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CKDPP1KX

Yep. Sold my ‘22 Tacoma (access cab, 6ft, Off Road) for a few reasons, and the 1150lb payload capacity was one of them.

What is top LED brake light? Wait, is the third brake light on my XLT not LED? Ridiculous if true. My XLT has zone lighting (maybe somehow different than the Lariat’s?) and a passenger seat back pocket. The only two features I wish my XLT had are push button start and intelligent access...

Do any of the fiberglass shells attach through the stake pockets?

It won't get lumpy over time, at least that has been my experience with these heavy mats (I too have the Ford-branded one). It's too heavy to mold into the bed contours much even when stepped on. I am not sure why following the contours of the bed undulations is an advantage? But that's your...

Promo worked for me - thanks!

Those Rangers and Colorado's are in 1/2-ton truck territory! So much for not getting to 1700lbs. Impressive. 2026 Ford Ranger STX • 2.3 L Engine • 4WD • Trailer Tow Package • Integrated Trailer Brake Control • Payload 1,747 lbs

Not quite on target, but XLT 2.3l 4WD w/301A, regular tow package and locking diff = 1633lbs.

No, the warning goes away on its own. I just don't understand what value that warning provides. I think we'd be hard pressed to find even one driver who uses that display to guide them to safer habits.

I don’t understand why sometimes on start the dash will give me the opportunity to use the same drive mode as was most recently used (and not other times), and why I have to acknowledge the seat belt warning. Along with auto stop disengage, it is all annoying.

A couple of points. "I don't understand why the Ranger has gotten so expensive." You took a mid-sized competitively-priced truck and made it expensive. "I get that some people just want the smallest truck they can buy...but why does it have to cost the same money??" It doesn't - see my first...

No...I'm saying with MY luck that will be the case. Needed a shrug emoji.
