  1. Next-Gen Ranger Accessories Released for Australia

    Added the ARB Summit bull bar to my WildTrak today. Excellent fit and finish. Moved my front sensors and camera from their original locations to the mounting locations designed into the bar so functionality of all my systems remains intact. Bar insets match the grille design and the bar was...
  2. What Made You Choose Your Truck?

    Yep, if your truck has them (mine doesn’t) so they’ll likely put a switch in the bed next to the hose coupler or in a ā€œblankā€ spot on the lower dash near the headlight switch. Since I’m Not running air lockers or something I’ll likely stick with the bed.
  3. What Made You Choose Your Truck?

    Adjusting to the driving is pretty easy… follow the dude in front of you. Adjusting to looking the ā€œwrongā€ way before crossing the street? Different story altogether… tends to be a self correcting problem though!
  4. What Made You Choose Your Truck?

    Not a dumb question at all, but unfortunately it’s a single elevation change as opposed to the independent front/rear. I still don’t think you’ll have a problem finding a comfortable seating position. I was able to and the seat’s on the wrong side of the damn truck!
  5. What Made You Choose Your Truck?

    There is, but they’ve actually engineered a place in the right rear of the bed between the inner and outer sheet metal. Hard mounts in there with only the hose coupler visible in the bed. Keeps it out of the way while allowing functionality. Just got back from ARB in town where I ordered it...
  6. What Made You Choose Your Truck?

    That’s always part of the fun… not necessarily planning but just exploring. In the states we often flip a coin to decide if we go left right or straight. Harder to do that here, but still plenty of options! And we’ll post pics afterwards!
  7. What Made You Choose Your Truck?

    Have them on this WildTrak. That was one of the differences my wife liked vs the Hilux. In the Toyota hers was manual. Powered in the Ranger which makes those fine, micro adjustments easy.
  8. What Made You Choose Your Truck?

    It’s not wider at the back than the front. Yes, there is additional width between the wheel arches, but that extra width was put to use in the cabin as well. Even the center console is wider (bought a Gen 5 console tray that went straight to the bottom due to the change.) Again, we’re not...
  9. What Made You Choose Your Truck?

    I’m 6’2 and 220 pounds and have plenty of room. The Gen 6 is actually a shade larger than 5. A couple inches wider, couple longer, couple taller. Not something most people would notice unless they put the two side by side or read the specs. The little bit bigger isn’t enough to affect...
  10. What Made You Choose Your Truck?

    One of the reasons I’m on here is to provide as much info as I can about it and to share experiences. Hoping that helps some, at least in the decision making. I’ve had a couple other Rangers over the years. Couple of Raptors. Couple of Tacomas. Really just about all the players at one point in...
  11. What Made You Choose Your Truck?

    I chose my Gen 6 Ranger for a few reasons. First, I’ll be on this assignment for a few years and getting out and exploring is something my wife and I really enjoy. We needed something that was going to be reliable and comfortable enough for the (really) long trips it takes to get somewhere out...
  12. My First Gen 6 Ranger Accessory - Fuzzy Seat Cover

    Sorry Ghost doesn’t like to ride. This one gets excited about it… hopefully he’ll like my Bronco as much as the Ranger!
  13. My First Gen 6 Ranger Accessory - Fuzzy Seat Cover

    His name is Raylan. He’s a 9 week old long haired German Shepherd. He gets just as excited to go out riding as I do!
  14. 6th Gen 2024 Ranger Raptor rolling down MAP production line šŸ“ø

    The voice commands don’t work that well, especially if CarPlay is enabled. Still end up reaching for a few things at times…
  15. 6th Gen 2024 Ranger Raptor rolling down MAP production line šŸ“ø

    The good thing though is that they integrated the big screen into the dashboard. It doesn’t look like they just stuck it on after the fact with some Velcro, duct tape, and hope! I have it in both my Ranger WildTrak out here where it’s vertical, and my Bronco Badlands where it’s horizontal back...
  16. My First Gen 6 Ranger Accessory - Fuzzy Seat Cover

    Have a lot of things on my list, but started with this one as my first accessory! Should be lots of fun exploring around here..
  17. About as smooth as it could be… 100km/h on a dirt road

    It did beautifully… and has so far on every type of terrain. When I looked down and was at 150km/h the other day it was a whole new level of respect. I would definitely understand the capabilities if I’d built it out, but this thing is still 100% stock. Impressive just doesn’t come close to...
  18. Next-Gen Ranger Accessories Released for Australia

    I’ll let you know how they work. Have that kit on order for my 6G
  19. Purchasing first model year vehicles

    Have 11000 miles on my ā€˜21 Bronco Badlands in all conditions on and off road in 8 months and was bulletproof. Had a 17 4-Runner that didn’t seem to be able to make it out of the driveway without something breaking. It’s really hit and miss at this point. If it helps, I bought a Gen 6 Ranger out...
