So can someone explain how a particular filter can be less restrictive to allow more air flow to "increase performance" while at the same time preventing the bad stuff from getting through the filter and into the engine? Are these filters so scientifically engineered that the filter pores can...
Like it or hate it, the insurance companies and auto manufacturers have determined we are stupid and what they can control and influence, they will control and influence. Waiting for AI to completely take over and start arguing with you: "Is this trip really necessary? Why are you idling so...
You avoid sliding in by having the board at the right height off the ground at entry and grabbing the steering wheel for assist since the Ranger lacks a driver side grab handle. At 71 and 6'4", I do not slide in since I went with AMP Research e-boards, which drop down when the door opens then...
At 6'4", fixed running boards are mounted too high. I step on them and hover over the truck, then duck to enter. My foot catches in the gap between board and frame. So I went with AMP Research e-boards since I do not off road. They are wide, retract flush, are lighted for night entry, and...
I noticed the 2026 Lariat was just spending more for less so I have the 2025. What is really sad is the 2025 Maverick Lariat. Not really a Lariat level trim to me.
There is going to be more federally-mandated monitor and report on driver devices in September 2027. Vehicles will monitor eye movement, behavior, breath analysis, and will use AI to refuse to start, if driver is impaired. Per the 2021 Infrastructure and Jobs Act. Wait until emergencies...
Am just guessing but the 2027 Ranger Tremor might cause certain dealerships like Future Ford in California and Team Ford in Las Vegas to rethink their Raptor ADM pricing.
I had no idea of the factory film specs so I went aftermarket XPEL PPF, full front and partial rear fenders since I replaced the factory boards with AMP Research. Not inexpensive but this truck is probably my last one. I had no issues with XPEL on my F150. Since you are in Preskit, I imagine...
Glad you are alive and did not lose your residence. Kansas is not much better this year with tornados and some areas getting hail up to softball size. Curious as to why you are parking your Raptor and Lexus outside??? No options for a garage or overhead cover?
I bought my Ranger out of State. I explained why to my small town salesman and service manager. Did not have to do that but they understood and appreciated my telling them. No worries on service.
It has the same unibody build with a bed as Ford's so-called Maverick "truck" built on an Escape unibody with a bed. These things are really just urban utility vehicles for putzin' around the city.
I replaced the factory boards on my Lariat with AMP Research. I had Xpel PPF put on from the gap between the cab and bed straight across to the gas tank filler, then straight down. Both sides. No dings, no chips. $85 each side, installed.
So doing some research on Canada's mudflaps, the requirement is by Province. Alberta requires mudflaps if the tire is not protected by a fender down to the center of the axle on all commercial and non-commercial trucks. The mudflaps must also be the width of the tire. Passenger vehicles do...
