I have the 2.7L engine but I’ve also had coolant consumption without obvious leaking. I’m curious what checks they did before the cylinder inspection that did NOT identify the problem, e.g. did it pass a pressure test?

Just google “tire size calculator” and plug in the details for your current tires and for the tires you’re considering. Many of them will tell you directly how it affects diameter/height/speedo accuracy.

I haven’t experimented with the 12V plug but I know the bed lights can be turned on even with the engine not running, although they will automatically turn off after a while. You just tap the bed lights button to the left of the steering wheel.

I can’t say whether this is a blocker, but every vehicle I’ve seen with the Pro towing option from the factory has an extra light to the left of the tailgate handle. So there may be other hardware differences too.

I can’t say for sure the tonneau from your 2021 wouldn’t fit but when I moved from a 2021 to a 2024 and bought the updated cover the installation was totally different (far easier). I think I’ve also seen others answer that it was close but just didn’t fit right. I wouldn’t count on it working.

That’s why I’m quite curious about this new design: I’m wondering if that thin gap across the threads leading up to a hole is intended to allow oil to flow at a more controlled rate when you have the plug part-way removed??

I’m not sure why the hate for a plastic plug. Can’t strip the threads out by over tightening. Won’t get seized due to corrosion. Can’t round the corners off a hex head. Unlike with metal you’re not relying on the threads to seal, you’ve got a user-replaceable o-ring. Still a fine idea to have...

You said they couldn’t diagnose it, does that mean you just bought a replacement cap out of pocket as a test or did you get them to replace it even though the leak test was clean?

I’ve never heard anything like you’re describing from my 2.7L ‘24. The only time I’ve heard loud air noises was in a different car when one of the intake hoses popped off. I’d check to make sure your engine filter housing and other hoses are secure.

Off-topic but I’m curious to know more about what looks like a replacement for the CHMSL light visible in that photo…

I have no way to independently validate this, but just based on hand-feel of the seating in my 2024 Lariat I’d say it seems accurate. I have personally used Meguires Quik Interior Detailer because it has no residue and it seems very mild.

There are a lot of possibilities. Just above someone posted a federally mandated Part 583 window tag identifying a 2025 model with 2.3L engine with "MEX" as country of origin. Similarly the consolidated disclosures from each auto maker posted by the NHTSA (which I linked to above) for the year...

Does it behave like a remote start where if you get in the vehicle you still have to press the start button again with the fob nearby to unlock the ability to shift and drive?

Wow, sounds like a great deal. You might inspect your CHMSL because I had a similar “already installed” thing and when I went to uninstall it I found one wire loose because of a terrible crimp job. Make sure you don’t end up with a melted wire or non-functioning third brake light.

Here’s some answers straight from the source, e.g. definition of “carline”. https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-49/subtitle-B/chapter-V/part-583 Interestingly it notes that you only have to list the top two foreign countries of origin if they represent at least 15% of content by value. So the...

I had a 2021 Lariat with just the LED cargo light as part of CHMLS and I personally found it to be of limited help in most cases. I think the 6G Ranger bed lighting is fantastic (on my 2024 Lariat), the only negative is that they only turn on with the bed light button in the cab, not with the...

I've not researched it in depth but I'm pretty sure the Raptor has hardware the non-Raptor doesn't have to support continuously varying engagement of the front axle with a multi-plate clutch (more like my European cars had). Don't believe it's just a software-enabled feature...

I think what you’re describing is exactly what I did, except I got mine from a Black Diamond Bronco on Facebook Marketplace. Details here: https://www.ranger6g.com/forum/threads/265-70-r17-bronco-black-diamond-take-offs-on-stock-lariat.22007/#post-319593

FYI I also saw tons of these specific style of wheel locally on Facebook marketplace when I was looking for other Bronco take-offs.

My suggestion would be to not mess with locking out the high gears to start, drive it for a while normally. I’m sure there are situations where it’s useful otherwise the option wouldn’t exist, I just don’t believe it’s very common. If used when it’s unnecessary you’ll just get worse mileage and...
