I am absolutely scratching my head over this one. On a pretrip engine check over, I was flabbergasted to discover my coolant reservoir cap was missing. I am at 9,500 miles with two oil changes (I performed). I am 99% sure I never touched the cap. I don't even have Ford coolant (VW only)and...

Thought I'd try the vacuum extraction method on my first oil change in my Lariat 4X2 2.3lt. I use this with great success with my VW Tiguan. It sucks out all but 2 oz. of oil! Unfortunately with the 2.3 lt engine at least, something prevents the tube (I tried two different sizes) from reaching...

Newbie here. Picked up my Lariat 4X2 last month. I hooked up our camping trailer (17' Casita) today for our first camping trip to a local State Park. Question that I cannot find the answer to in the OM: does the driving mode change automatically to Tow when the trailer electrical is plugged in...

I just bought oil and filter for my first oil change for my recently purchased Lariat 4X2. I am somewhat appalled at the small size of the Motorcraft oil filter. It is only slightly larger than the filter on my lawn tractor's 725cc engine. I have to assume Ford engineers know what is needed. I...

I am about to apply a ceramic coat to my Lariat. However, I also have a Lund hood protector and tailgate letters on order. I believe one should wipe down the area where the letters and hood protector are attached (adhesive) with alcohol. Will this take off the ceramic coat if I apply it first...

New here. Just drove home my June 26th ordered 4X2 Hot Pepper Lariat. Great ride! On the way home I noticed the first (last?) possible build issue. Either that or I'm ignorant of Ford controls (first Ford since 2001). The Set+ and Set- cruise control buttons on the steering wheel do nothing...

Thought it would benefit future Ranger purchasers to know what current owners payed for their Ranger. As Raptors have such a messed up supply chain/demand climate, lets have a poll just for XL, XLT, Lariat models. Obviously feel free to post how much above,below MSRP you paid. I just ordered a...

I just joined after ordering a build your own 2WD Lariat from Sheehy Ford Richmond, Virginia (great experience). On Ford's build your own web site, a hardfolding tonneau cover requires 4WD. Is this just a Ford ploy to get one to get 4WD? I can't believe there is a bed difference between 2WD and...
