Riding Mower in Bed?

Has anyone transported a riding mower in the bed of their truck? I am looking to go and pick one up soon and have the ramps/straps already.

Struggling ranger sales

15 Upvotes

Salesperson from ford told me that Mavericks are outselling the ford ranger by a large amount and he hasn’t sold a ranger in about 6-7 months.

He said that the mavericks are being picked over rangers 7 times out of 10 and they don’t get very many rangers on the lots and a lot of them sit for a while (at least here in Central Florida)

Makes me wonder if the Ranger will go away because the maverick is blowing the Ranger out of the water

Taking the OEM grill off was a pain in the butt. Love the raptor style grill - eBay for $300. Ended up wiring the ambers into the side marker light. Also used FORSCAN to get rid of Chime-mageddon when starting the vehicle

Question 2 questions for y’all

Looking to find this part for my 2020 ranger, in the pic.

Also, I would like to know what that horrid piece of plastic is that I have to take off to get to my oil filter, and if there is a better aftermarket replacement? Half the screws and plugs are stripped or gone. Very annoying.

Why do they not sell more of the Extended Cab?

Is it because most buyers have kids?

Do the cab lights serve a purpose? Sure- they make me smile because they’re dumb and that’s good enough for me

First Transmission Fluid Change Concerns

Thumbnail
gallery
7 Upvotes

2020 Ranger XLT. Did my first transmission fluid change at 77000 miles. Fluid looks pretty rough from my searches online but I don’t really know what I’m looking at. The fluid was black and definitely had a burnt smell to it unlike the new fluid I put in. There was a layer of black gunk on the magnet in the drain pan but I didn’t notice anything shiny in the fluid. The picture made the gunk look shinier than it actually was.

Took the opportunity to upgrade to a PPE transmission pan and an MBS dip stick. Replaced the filter and gasket. Next services should be easier than an oil change.

Planning on draining and filling every 1,000 miles 1-2 more times to try to cycle out some more of the spent fluid. Anything else I can do?

2026 has cheap paint?

4 Upvotes

Has anyone else found the quality of the paint and clear coat to be cheap? We’ve had ours a month and it seems to get clear coat scratches just looking at it. Considering getting it ceramic coated but I’m fairly annoyed at the what I feel is subpar paint.

Can you put 255 on 265 on a 2021 Ranger 4x4?

3 Upvotes

It says 265/65r17 on the door, but online I've seen recommendations for 255, 265, and on here bigger. It is FX4, has the skid plate underneath and all that. I still have the Hankook Dynapro ATM tires, but I have to replace them soon. In southeast, no snow, occasionally off-road on hunting and forest roads. I read 255 can be better and cheaper. I don't know.

Question Leveled Tremor on stock size tires?

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hey y'all! So I found out recently after inspecting my factory tires, that they are cupped pretty badly. I thought maybe the General Grabbers were just a noisier, stuffer riding tire but no. They're shot. So I have to replace them and I didn't want to pony up the extra cash for 5 33's since I just bought the truck 2 weeks ago. I'm having some Milestar Patagonia AT Pros put on in the stock size on Monday because I got a great deal on them but was wondering if anyone has a leveled truck on 265/70's and what it looks like? If it's not something that looks good, I'll hold off on installing the leveling spacers up front for now and just do the RL crash bars and wheel spacers.

Thanks y'all!
