Rio, from some song about the Rio Grande, 'her name was Rio'...something like that. And the Casita we got the Ranger to tow with is called Ovo. So when together RioOvo.

I like it! But it said bed 5.5, my Ranger is 5 foot I believe. Would you just take off the tailgate and let the Aliner just hang over?

Surely someday someone will offer up a 2cd battery kit here in the U.S. When I had the 4Runner there were two kits available. I think best for me to just be patient. But again, super jealous and impressed with your setup. Truthfully probably not needed for me, the wife, and the Casita camper. I...

Tyler, more I study this 2cd battery setup more I want! Curious about this part (red arrow pointing to it). That didn't come with the ARB Dual Battery kit did it? Looks like a great place for the DC-DC charger. You ordered from Australia...think my local dealer could order that here in...

Awesome set up!!

Yep. Traded a 2021 4Runner TRD Pro, 36K miles for the Ranger XLT. Wife wants a camper, a Casita. She bought one, we pick it up in Texas in about 6 weeks. The Ranger compared to the 4Runner wins on several fronts. 7500 tow vs 5000, hitch 750lbs vs 500 pounds, the Ranger we got has the brake...

I'm trying the (ordered) the Synetic MR retractable with the low crossbars. Fully expect it to leak at least a little, and that's ok/won't put anything back there 'sensitive' without being in a box. Just need something lockable, something (low cross bars) that allows me to put my bikes on and a...

Thanking everyone for all the input and information. As hopefully mentioned, only thing I've towed is my utility trailer with a Kaw Mule or my big mower...so 2000 pounds at most. I never thought of transmission temps/wind catching frontal area/tongue weight/etc. So this is a whole new learning...

AI Overview USB-C Power Delivery (PD) is a fast charging technology that utilizes the USB-C connector to deliver higher power levels to devices. It allows for dynamic adjustment of power sent to a device, enabling faster charging and powering of more demanding devices like laptops. USB-C PD...

Does anyone know if the usb-c under the info screen is PD? We're thinking about adding a Haloview BT7 touch and it can be powered by usb-c PD or 12v. Ony 12v I see is in the center cubby. Trying to minimize cables in my little world.

Good taste :) No bedliner yet. It is ordered from the dealer along with some Timbren shocks for the rear. I thought about spray in but I need the bed floor slick. Tonneau also ordered. We'll use long trays to put stuff one....need the trays to slide easily out the rear. Now I've had a drop in...

Brian, yes to the black-out package. Here it is in the driveway and a look at the tires.

What size do I require? Dealer told me for future tire upgrades I can go to 265/70/R17 31.9" without fender mods, but I would have sworn I have 18 inch wheels. Hmmmmm.....

Can't argue with anything you said. Especially about NOT idling the Ranger. We do have a couple of generators, big and small, but I just told the wife over lunch that if she has 600ah charged on board when leaving the house she wouldn't have to do anything for days......unless she gets hell bent...

Rik, appreciated. I've added Michelin Defender LTX to my upgrade (continually growing by the way) list. Honestly I'll probably go with K03s, just a bad habit I've got. But I'm going to wear out these 'free' Territory's first :)

Brisco thanks. I worked in health care 35 years/little mechanical knowledge. Are you saying the circled in red is transmission temp? I'd thought that was oil temp. Now to the right, the little thermometer with gear icons....I'd be that is transmission temp....but no number. I want a number, not...

' like meh stock tires ' hmmmmm. I did look at a Tacoma before I traded a 4R for the Ranger this past weekend. My Ranger came with Goodyear Territory AT (I assume this is standard), much better than what was on the Tacoma. I'd just put K03s on the 4Runner 2 weeks before trading. I think these...

Nathan, I did watch one of the vids from that site and saw this! Now that is living! One thing I really really wish our Ranger had was 12v near the tailgate.

Thanks for the info and link Nathan. We're old folk/no off-roading for us but we do boondock a lot in our quest for wildlife photography, often planting in out spot for days waiting for the critters. We're putting the Timbrens on the 2025 Ranger XLT to help with squat when we attach the Casita...

Chasc thanks so much! Excellent info you've provided. Also you said 'the truck already stops power to the 7-way plug when the ignition is off', that means the camper cant drain my Ranger starting battery. That's good. So if/when I run 4 gauge (+fuse) from the Ranger's battery to the Orion XS, I...
