The soundstage in the Ranger pretty much sucks. This is compared to a 1997 Lexus I owned and a 2017 Buick Envision. Its muddy. This is with classis rock, older 90's country and classical. I'm not sure why everyone goes to upgrade the sub first, because it would be more prudent to work on...
Major cities like Houston, Seattle and LA utilize 100kw radio stations. Us lesser folk in more rural areas are limited to 50kw stations. This difference in power, also changes reception quality.
Joordan and Alaska Steve are correct, antennas need to be a specific length for a given frequency...

I bought a couple of these. https://www.basspro.com/shop/en/plano-medium-storage-trunk and some of these https://www.basspro.com/shop/en/plano-sportsmans-trunk-100168779.
My tonneau cover arrives tomorrow so I will have to see how things fit. I wanted these for day trip stuff. A small...
Here is the timeline for my truck.
I ordered a Pace Edwards Ultra Groove cover that arrives this coming Friday. I chose it due to the compatibility with a Kuat rack.
Was the system you had on your 5G from Borla or Ford Performance? From my conversations with Borla, the GM and Ford Performance mufflers are a touring design and quieter than the Borla Type-S systems they sell on their website. Also, was your system single pipe or dual pipe exit?
Sorry I have taken so long to get the information, but it's been a little cold lately. The wheel is stamped 8.5Jx17H2x55, the part number is JB3G-1007-M1A.
