  1. Latest recall 2025 XLT.

    I dropped my headliner to do the roof insulation. I found no pinched wires, so not too worried about it.
  2. What are you towing with your 6th Gen Ranger?

    I tow my track car in an Aerovault enclosed trailer. Total weight is 5,500 lbs. As the name implies, the trailer is very aerodynamic and doesn't get buffed about. Recently towed from Atlanta to Bowling Green. About 650 miles round trip with several grades of between 6-9%. 2025 2.3l 2WD...
  3. Rear end lowering?

    I suppose you could flip the axle and then add lift springs to get a modest 2-3" drop. The problem you'll always run into is the suspension travel. Any drop will come with a commensurate reduction in suspension travel.
  4. Highway operating temperatures 2.3L

    Mine shows the same. I checked the oil temp on the dipstick with a contact pyrometer to see what it reads when the gauge is over half. Pyrometer was reading 180f. These factory gauges are buffered and rarely truly indicate actual temp or pressure. It is a bit odd though that it reads so...
  5. Safety Recall: Ford Fixing Integrated Trailer Module with OTA Software Update Affecting 2024-26 Ranger Vehicles

    I called my local dealer today. They said an OTA is not available for the 26C10 update, so I brought it in and they updated my truck.
  6. A Stupid Trailering Capacity Question

    I would also say to beware that your insurance will likely have an exclusion for operating beyond the stated capacity.
  7. Wider highway tires

    For those few interested in a better road tire, I’ve gone ahead and answered my own question and have verified that 275/60/18 do fit the stock 7.5ā€ rim and clear the knuckle and UCA. Ride quality is significantly better with the Michelin Defender LTX tires and the wider squarer look is much...
  8. Is everyone just blown away by the Raptor?

    It looks like an awesome truck and is a solid value for what you get and I really wanted to like it, but after a test drive of three Ranger variants (2.3 2wd, 2.7 4wd, and RR), the RR just felt lethargic. Sure, lots of torque and acceleration, but the handling made you feel every bit of the...
  9. Under Hood Sound Dampening

    Dealer Auto Parts has the hood insulator for $163 and my shipping was $66. With clips shipped $255. N1WZ-16738-B - Insulator | Dealer Auto Parts
  10. Sport mode all the time?

    I’ve been using sport mode all the time and love it. I do a lot of my driving on rural roads and like how it stays in lower gears, basically like I would do if it had a manual.
  11. What are you towing with your 6th Gen Ranger?

    Blue trucks make better tow vehiclesā€¦šŸ˜Ž
  12. New WeatherTech HP Floor Liners Installed

    I have the new WeatherTech mats and can say they are worth the premium price. I've been a customer for 20+ years and have used them on many vehicles. Fit is always superb and they just don't wear out.
  13. Radio randomly off on startup.

    Occasionally on startup my radio is off. Has anyone else had this issue? I have a 2025 XLT with the base radio.
  14. Wider highway tires

    Appreciate the replies, but I know well tire fitment. I’m looking for actual experience with this size. Sizing can vary quite a bit from tire to tire, even with the same manufacturer. There appear to be several threads assuming that 275/65/18 will fit. Since this a taller tire, I can...
  15. Tailgate Letters!

    Tufskinz Liquid Chrome on Velocity Blue.
  16. Wider highway tires

    I just took delivery of a 2025 XLT 2wd with the 18ā€ chrome wheels and am wanting to replace the Goodyear AT tires for a quieter smoother set of highway tires. Am wanting to go wider without changing the diameter. Seems all the discussion on this forum is for larger diameter off road type...
