Golfers and soccer parents usually use toppers to hold gear and keep it secured. If you go to a topper website to order a topper it states that you have to get the braces installed. Nothing about off-roading. Where does it say for off-road conditions only? And…how much off-roading is too...
That’s what it’s built for. Truck stuff. It’s a standard if you’ve been able to do it with trucks and Rangers themselves for 30 plus years. What about that doesn’t make it a standard? Standard equipment includes a steering wheel for a car. If I buy a car and they tell me I need to buy the...
You have no clue. I live here and drive the roads every day. I’m not saying Ford should build based off of Colorado alone but it’s a good footprint for usage. Are you also saying campers, golfers, soccer parents and any other demographic doesn’t use their Rangers for this stuff? All I’m saying...
Maybe where you live. But in Colorado. Most trucks have some sort of topper/bed rack and RTT. Toyota made a specific truck just for overlanding. I’m not saying that’s what the Ranger is but my point was that there’s no way that a manufacturer should be making the customer put reinforcement...
Since when don’t people use toppers or bed racks? It’s been a thing for as long as I can remember. It’s a BASIC requirement for all trucks. That’s a Product Engineering misstep. How do you forget to check that?!
The main thing is Ford is making the customer pay for an engineering mistake. They should pony up and fix it. To your point we bought these things to do truck stuff. No other manufacturer is making us pay for these things. It’s plain and simple mistake that the customer is having to pay for. ?
Phil long motor city in Colorado Springs. Go see Brandon. If he’s still there that’s who I go to. I had so much aftermarket done to the Bronco and they still covered everything. Front diff, no questions asked.
I had this issue on my 2021 Bronco. You should be good. The seal should come in pretty quick and they’ll have you up and running in no time. I had no issues after I had mine replaced. What usually takes so long is getting it looked at.
