Anyone else notice an increase in exhaust drone as their 2.7 got broke in and closer to 10k miles? Mine is definitely louder than when it was new and starting to annoy me since the trans is constantly shifting into a higher gear and often lugging the engine at less than 1500 rpm where you not...
Went out the other night and opened the door to get in and the interior lights didn't come on. Truck started OK. Next day after a short drive to the park, got the attached message on the screen. Friend works at the local dealer and told me to bring it on in and he'd test it since it's going to...
Stopped by my local dealer while I was out for a mental health ride on one of the bikes and honestly, I can't figure out why anyone would buy a Ranger. 46K for a XLT FX4. They are all CC with tiny beds but they sit almost as tall as a F150. Interior was cramped looking and the center screen was...
Don't know how often Ford sends these out but I just received another 2500 offer even though I just bought a truck 6 mo ago when they sent me a 4000 offer. Crazy. I think there is a serious overstock problem with the 24's and the 25's coming soon. Also saw that Nissan is cutting shifts and...
I've had my 23 STX SC for a few months now and finally tried sport mode. Game changer. My truck has the 3:55 axle and in around town driving, it was always lugging the engine down to 1200 rpms before it would downshift. Super annoying since you'd get the drone and vibration at that low of an...
I have a STX that I love the look of but want to finish it off with paint matching mirror caps and door handles. I custom paint and restore vintage bikes, is painting is not an issue. Should I just buy some generic black caps and covers off ebay and paint them or is there a better alternative?
After having it about 3 weeks now, a few observations. The cons-
1) It is a rattle trap. I had to shim panels in 5 places to get rid of the most obnoxious rattles. There is no excuse for this in a new vehicle. See pics.
2) I thought my Nissan had the worst/cheapest backup camera made but this...
I have a new 23 STX with manual HVAC and it will randomly turn the compressor on even when the AC is off and it is just blowing outside temp air in. If I turn the entire system off with the power button, it will usually go back to normal but will do it again later in the day of the next day. If...
I almost bought a 24 XL reg cab w/5.0 and 3.73 rear with the intent of making it a little hot rod- maybe an exhaust and definitely some wheels. But the more I looked at the front end and grill the more I decided against it. There was just no way I could make it look good without spending a ton...
New 23 w/sync4... I connected my Pixel and enabled AA. Connects perfectly every time but always comes up with google maps and spotify even though I don't have them open on my phone- and actually rarely use them. All I usually want is the normal radio/media screen. Any way to change this behavior...
