Rightly or wrongly I’ve been towing my teardrop (T@b 400 boondock, about 4400lbs laden), mostly with the normal drive mode. This with the 2026 2.7 liter engine. Has performed well and gives me better mileage and performance than my 2019 2.3L did (~15 vs 14) Tried using the tow/haul mode on a...

Short answer, I did find a connector in the sidewalk, but chose not to use it. I added a 12v port last week. Picked it up from Amazon. Has a voltmeter, on off switch, 3 USB ports an a cigarette lighter style port. Wanted it for my electric fridge and Starlink. I ran a 12v line direct...

I was interested in 1 12v cigarette outlet and 2 USBC outlets. Not so much the 400W. Can I use the same connector and air my own plug to tap in?

thats what I've been doing. Was hoping the tracker would help, but seems not

Thanks for the insights. Will definitely select the tow haul more routinely. Agree on the gas though. Premium definitely gets better power and MPG for towing

I think I've been using normal mode the whole time (~4500 lb trailer loaded). Tows well, but I would expect the mileage tracking to be all or nothing. I'm leaning towards the 7 pin connector either being loose/dirty. Stay tuned.

I guessed at the same cause. Planning to check the harness and plug for dirty connections/loose wires. Thanks

Hi, I have the advanced towing package. One of the apparent features is that it will track the mileage accumulated by my trailer. However, I'm finding this is quite erratic. The first time it just stopped at 100 miles (about 125 miles short). I manually corrected it and the next time it was...

Thanks for posting this. I considered doing the same thing but was concerned that the combined weight of the kayaks, rack and Hullavator might exceed the recommended roof loading. Did you check this? For others looking for similar solutions, I ended up with the Hullavator mounted above a...

Yes, I put stickers on both arms of the trailer

I just calibrated mine. Took a lot longer than expected. In fact I had to go find an open parking lot to drive around in a fixed circle in each direction. Lost the trailer. few times, I think when one of the stickers got hidden by the front wheel jack motor. I presume you can actually see...

You're right, it was through another vendor, but the instructions pointed me at Real Truck for support. They forwarded me to Retrax (but without any of my data), and as I mentioned above, Retrax support was quick and helpful. Thanks again!

Just finished the install which ran into some unexpected issues. First, Retrax had been holding back an approved "application" (ie 2026 specific fit) for a while, and mine must have been one of the first releases. The update were due to changes in the sidewall layout. I encountered a few...

Just got my new Ranger. Surprised by the size of the gaps around the tailgate compared to my 2021. Not even sure a seal kit will close it. A common problem? Was this a "feature" of the 2024/25 models too?

IF you get a decent tonneau cover, most of them include a strip of foam to put on top of the back rail to ensure. seal there
