Hey guys. I had read before of the previous 5 Gen that some companies made a very easy to install window module kit that allowed you to auto open/close all 4 windows from the driver's seat, and also allowed you to automatically open and close the windows using the key fob.
Does anyone know if...
Hey guys. Went to check my order tracker as my Ranger was scheduled to be In Production next week.
Welp, the tracker updated completely and reads totally different now! I also was required to log in to get any meaningful data.
Attached a screenshot. Looks like no more Built date on the pizza...
Hey ya'll. I have to assume that bed lighting is a modern amenity? My Ranger will be my first truck and I didn't opt for the LED bed lighting because I didn't want the entire Convenience Package (no need for power, didn't want the silly wireless charger up front).
Anyway, what did guys do...
Hey ya'll. In short I'm kind of kicking myself for not buying the FX4 package with my Ranger getting delivered in a few weeks. I went with the locking rear diff, but am now realizing I could have gotten the entire FX4 package for about 700 bucks more.
Anyway, I'm also now realizing that I don't...
Hey yall, curious if any of you have the 2.7L V6 and also the Rival 4x4 Engine Skid Plate?
I am thinking of getting it to protect the plastic oil pan, but want to make sure it doesn't inhibit the oil changes too much. It does have the nice port window. I'd most likely leave the port cover off...
Hey guys. Still waiting for my 2026 XLT order and in the meantime was wondering if anyone knew if there was a way to hide the second digital engine coolant temp gauge on the screen?
Seems silly for them to have that there when the lefthand 1/3 of the cluster is already reserved for the first...
Hey guys. Stumbled upon this post about adding heated mirrors to an XLT
https://www.ranger6g.com/forum/threads/adding-heated-mirrors-to-xlt.27183/
It made me realize: wait, do the XLTs not come with heated mirrors? WTF? My 11 year old Subaru came with them standard!
Curious, do heated mirrors...
Hey guys. Call me crazy, but I wished the 2.7L V6 Ecoboost version of our truck had some sort of emblem somewhere to designate it. I had thought about putting a vintage V6 emblem on the tailgate, but it just didn't look quite right.
I found these convincing OEM-looking emblems from Tuffskinz...
Hey guys. Bought my house 6 years ago and was stoked to finally have a 2 car garage! Unfortunately, the house was built in the 1970s so it is a garage of yesteryear, with just 7 foot ceilings and the absolute bare minimum of space. My current Subaru just barely fits comfortably...
I've taken...
Hey guys. I ordered a 2026 Ranger XLT without the 120V/400W in-bed power package. I know it'll just come with a blank, black steel plate attached to that location in the bed with 4 screws.
Curious if anyone has done any mods with that? I think it could be useful for something but have to think...
Hey guys. I thought I read about someone on here needing FORScan in order to get the tuning settings on the stock stereo. Is that true?
Ordered a 2026 XLT so wasn't sure if maybe it just wasn't added to the base XL, or maybe I just heard wrong, or maybe the Lariat with the B&O sound system has...
Hey guys. Title says it all - curious how much headroom you have in your Ranger if you are around my height, 6 ft 0.
I had originally wanted the power sunroof but that obviously got delayed by Ford. My wife had just reminded me that, in previous cars, I always needed to drive the actual car...
Hey y'all. While waiting on my Ranger order to come in, just doing some research and had a question.
I read in the manual that the electronic locking rear diff can be turned on from both the touch screen and a physical button. However, every video I see online seems to only show people doing it...
Hey guys, any of you out there know how high up the frame is on our new Rangers? I have one on order, so don't have it yet, but trying to plan ahead.
I currently have a 2 Ton Floor Jack with a max lift height of 17". Technically, I could use it safely for the Ranger - our trucks weigh around...
Hey guys, will try to keep it short. For every car I've owned, I like to have a PDF copy of the dealership service manual - not talking about the owner's manual, but the actual service shop manual that dealer techs use with specifics for every repair, specifications, etc.
Anyway, couldn't find...
Hey there guys. Waiting on my Ford Ranger order and as I'm reading through the manual, I'm realizing there are a lot of things I don't like about modern cars like our Fords that I want to change. Many of these things I've read posts on here about being able to change things using FORScan. Some...
Hey yall. Still waiting on my Ranger order but planning ahead and wanted to ask a question. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the splash guard under the engine bay - that must be removed prior to changing the oil - is metal, right? Or is it plastic?
Regardless of material... have any of you removed...
Hey guys. I keep reading all sorts of different timelines online about ordering a Ranger direct from Ford. Has anyone ordered for 2026 that could give me a rough idea?
Technically, I put my order in for a Ford Ranger XLT two weeks ago on 02May, but was told this week that Ford is no longer...
Hey guys. Planning ahead for my 2026 Ford Ranger I have ordered from the dealer. I've settled on the RealTruck BAK Revolver X4S hard rolling tonneau cover for my needs but am curious what you guys would do for install.
I'm a DIYer so had originally planned on installing myself. But after...
Hey guys. Just put an order in for a new 2026 Ford Ranger, that I was told would be here by July. Woohoo!
Unfortunately, despite going over the build list a million times and the salesman confirming with me too, we completely missed the integrated side steps. I was thinking they came standard...
