I bought one of these, but never installed it before selling my Ranger. It has never been used. https://www.4dtech.com/ranger-24-26-start-stop-eliminator/ $60 shipped. Please PM me. Thanks.

Warranty, bud.

That’s it! ”Normal,” my ass, Ford.

Here's some light reading for you. You're not alone. I eventually sold my truck over this. People who aren't experiencing it are very fortunate. https://www.ranger6g.com/forum/threads/2025-2-3-start-up-clunk.29539/

Possible that the power steering pump is faulty, resulting in a transient excessive load on the electrical system?

“Positive drag or rocking sensation at start up while in Park.” Yeah, it ain’t a “rocking sensation.” It’s a loud effing bang that sounds like the engine is trying to throw a rod. Whatever, I sold the truck so it’s no longer my concern.

It does it because there are flaps in the grille that close at interstate speeds. This doesn’t allow enough air for the cooling system to cool the oil to normal levels. Really bad programming on Ford’s part, just to chase an extra 0.1 MPG. The flaps should open if the temps start to rise.

What's a DIBL?

F150s had an extremely similar problem around 2018-2020. There are Reddit threads with 500+ comments. To my knowledge, Ford never acknowledged or solved it.

How can that be? The video assures me that the 2027 Ranger is actually insane! Are you saying that’s an exaggeration?

Probably an AI summary or something.

What are we seeing in the third picture? An old monastery, maybe?

Maybe they add the Google stuff. I would be very surprised if they did a noticeable exterior update. Keep in mind that Ford decontents these trucks every model year.
