Forgot this gem, if you live near the desert and are happy rough camping, no worries.

It is a really bad time to buy a new rv - a heavily discounted used one that has had most of its build issues fixed is wise, but only if you are prepared to do your own work on it. Good luck getting service work performed at a dealer.
Why RV Dealers Are Going Bankrupt in 2026 (What That Means...
FYI it is possible to install this kit, which is limited to 12 amps dc, withOUT running heavy gauge wires under the truck, it should work with the Ranger factory trailer charge circuit. I used their previous version on a trailer with 200 amp hours of Battleborne LiFePO4 batteries, off a 20 amp...
LOL, the video cuts off right after the guy filming shouts "GOOD!" I think he actually said "GOOD GOD YOU IDIOT"! We do not actually know if the truck went in or not..... the front wheels were still rotating. Rule of thumb, if the boat needs a triple axle trailer the TV should be a heavy duty...
You need to tell us your budget and how many miles per year you would travel.. Most new trailers under $40k are pretty much garbage. It might be time for a field trip to tour the Oliver factory in Hohenwald, TN, the Legacy Elite single axle trailer would be a great match for your truck. They...
Your chains are about twice as long as they should be, shorten them so they never bind in a turn, you can also add a short bungee cord draped across the tongue to hold them way off the ground. Also, they should attach to the tongue further to the rear, so that when crossed in an X shape,, they...
I have no personal opinion about that filter, you can look at this thread.

I generally do not order “mission critical” parts from Amazon or Walmart or eBay… you just have no way of knowing if they are...
Most tire gauges are inaccurate, a $75 digital one is better than a $10 one. This is excellent!
My RR sensors are accurate, but only if the truck is in shade - readings are delayed because the sensors have to “wake up” each time by tire rotation. This mornings readings, outside in 62 degrees...
That is very slick! How does it cool, and have you thought about adding a computer fan and vents? The controller and battery temps must both be maintained for long term health.
I use an Ecoflow 1028 Whr and a separate Ecoflow 500 watt Alternator Charger, plus a backup 200 watt EF folding 4...
Any mod like this will wreck the resale value of your truck, unless you remove it completely first. Make sure you do not permanently mess up the factory seat and mounts. I am pretty sure you won’t find any pre made kit because of the headroom issue…
Maybe you should explain why you don’t want...
Were you able to work the fabric behind the side plastic pieces, as shown in the video? I could only get them in about 1/4” - it was a darn tight fit because of the extra thickness of the strings.. I have plastic interior trim tools, but I was afraid of tearing the leather…. Can you post a pic...
This video was just released three weeks earlier, I am glad I found it.
Ford Ranger Raptor - How to Install TigerTough Seat Covers
I had a lot of trouble with the first seat, the second one went a lot faster. Keep in mind the video guy does these all day long! He removes the yellow wire...
Yes, it is a standard thread 8 mm nylon self locking stainless flange nut from my hardware stash, Ace Hardware can sell you one….

The andersen is excellent at controlling sway and especially jounce on rough freeways, it is NOT especially good at weight distribution. I agree that you need stiffer rear springs, which will affect the unloaded ride, airbags, which will affect the articulation, a lighter trailer, which will...
I think the Andersen is a smart choice, even if you do not “need” the antisway feature, it helps to level the truck (but only a little, it isn’t great for that) but more importantly, it almost completely eliminates the rhythmic jounce that happens on crappy freeways (uneven concrete slabs and...
Buy your RR anywhere but the West Coast - the dealers are still adding a ton of dealer markups. There have been a few threads about this. Three years after its introduction, my two closest dealers still add $5k, it used to be $10k. I bought mine in 2024 in South Dakota, flew there and drove it...
Thanks for posting, was that an official ORV park?
In my limited experience with water and wires, what will cause real headaches are non-waterproof butt splices (or those horrible Tee Tap ones), for example an aftermarket trailer light converter, and red rock dust in the US Southwest. That...
