I have a Blueetti AC180 and a single 200W folding solar panel (which peaks around 140W in real life usage -- but it's enough to keep the AC180 charged.

Can run anything I need to off the AC180. For fun we've run the vacuum cleaner at home which sucks...
Ranger tow capacity is 7500, real world payload is 1450-1650.
Bronco tow capacity is 3500, payload is 1100 or so.
A Bronco truck would be as much of a truck as the Maverick, not the Ranger.
Update. I received a call that the parts to replace the filler tube were in.
I scheuled an appointment and asked if they could do the pillar recall as well. They said sure.
I dropped the car off the night before the appointment. At 3:30 the day of they said, they were done, but unfortunately...
I pulled a quote for PremiumCare at Granger Ford and it is listed at $2200 vs $3790 from fordprotect.ford.com.
Can someone explain why buying from Granger dealership is cheaper than buying directly from Ford?
I'm at the ford protect site gretting a quote on my 2025 Ranger XLT (without the advanced tech package, just the normal tech). XLT has RWD only, but it does have the Advanced Tow Package and Locking Rear Differential. As I purchased this in Spring of 2026, I'm getting a quote til 2036 (so 10...
My fuel filler tube is throwing the evaporator code. Suggestions by Ford were to clean around the intake and insert the fuel filler funnel several times, then drive to see if that fixes the issue (the check engine light is on all the time now due to this). That did not fix it, so am going to...

Added the above 3-D printed cap to the capless fuel system.. Thanks to a suggestion by another forum member.
It fits perfectly and looks good.
And to be explicit, it is behind the passenger side seat, so I need to lay down the back of the seat rather than flip up the bottom of seat. It is clipped to the upholstery above the jack.
I tried using the Owner's Manual built into the screen, but could not find the location using the search function in there or just browsing the sections. But sounds like it is specified in there somewhere.
This poll is simple.
Do you know the where to find the funnel used to pour fuel from a gas can into your Ranger.
There is another thread which states the location, but for this poll, do you know where it is right now, before searching for it.
Thanks to original poster. Fun stats.
So is Eco mode useless? Seems like Eco mode would be designed to get better mileage than Normal mode. I use Normal or Sport mostly myself, and Tow/Haul when the bed is full of camping gear and wood.
Side note -- my other drive is a 2012 Challenger R/T...
We purchased a 2025 XLT in April 2026. We have 800 miles on it. The check engine light came on July 11th. Ford App says it is the an evap issue, to clean around the fuel capless system, insert the fuel filler funnel several times to try and get the system to lock, and to drive for a while...
Did you have any of these items installed?
step rails, weatherproof floor mats, bed mat or liner, mud flaps, tailgate liner?
I ask as I added all of the above after I purchased my 2025 XLT. The bed mat is the rubber mat, all that adds up to o 94 pounds. So while not part of the build, if they...
There is a small circular device which looks kinda like a speaker above the driver side, in the ceiling of my 2025 Ranger.
But I think it is more likey a microphone. Is that correct?
Yes, that is a nice set of data. The payload varies quite a bit, but one should be able to tease out the weight of various options with enough examples. That spray-in bed liner seems heavier than I expected. I'll get you the exact vin number and data from the window sticker and doorsill...
