Love it! I miss my 2000 Frontier. Getting long bed Pro-4X would be awesome. Rear seats are tight but most other stuff was upgraded on the inside; bigger screen, power passenger seat, some styling queues. Not sure on the exterior, the front end is a little more plastic looking instead of painted.

Attaboy! Keep up the good work Tim!

Ranger is a midsize TRUCK, body on frame. Can two 7500 lbs. 2.3L EcoBoost standard, 2.7 V6 EcoBoost optional. No hybrid yet (rumors of PHEV in 2025 as they have them overseas apparently). Vertical infotainment screen. Maverick is unibody construction, it is a pickup. Shares many components with...

No chance I am subscribing to anything after paying $50k+ for a truck. The truck comes with heated seats but now they want me to pay a fee to use them… come on. Let’s be real here.

My 2008 has less rust that your 2021 did… that is ridiculous. Ford needs to better. You said GM wax coats it on the full size but not the midsize. Why?

Tim, We need a F-150 Lightning forum in the EV section if you get around to it. Eric

I'm no expert in the HD trucks but sounds like to me that you MIGHT want to consider a diesel due to the amount of driving you do. It will give you more range while off road as well. It does add weight which is a negative but I figure the life expectancy of the engine will be longer. Maintenance...

He needed one more package but at $41k, still a solid deal. Would have been nice with cruise control and sliding rear window.

Agreed 100%. The screens in the Colorado and Canyon are much better than the other screens for sure.

Toyota cannot even fix the window trim on the new generation Tundra for three years now. Makes me think they won’t be fixing anything major in a quick manner either…

Did he get triggered by the automated response that killed him with kindness?

That is awful. Stay safe and the folks in NM are in our prayers.

This. You nailed it 100%!

I guess the layoffs are starting to affect the PR team, smdh. I am starting to have concerns about product quality and reliability. As a Ford guy for life, it pains me to say that. Ram (Stellantis) problems have been well documented but it seems Ford and GM get a free pass. What you described...

I have a 2008 with the 5.4 3V. If the oil is changed frequently, there are no issues. I bought it used in 2020 with 121k from the original owner who had maintenance records. I religiously change the oil every 3k miles on it. I know have 153k miles and its runs as good as ever, just wish I didn't...

Congrats! Looks sweet. And he will learn how to drive a manual too. My youngest turned 16 today but no license here until 17.

Yes, it will be interesting to see how it pans out. Only time will tell I guess.

The Ram is only a refresh aside from the engine. The RHO sounds cool but how long before it arrives? I don’t think a midsize helps tax wise but what about a 3/4 ton or 1 ton? Will they bring in views?

I edited my post as you replied. So some info may have changed. I leased a 2019 Ranger with the 2.3 and ran regular and sold it in 2021 to the local dealership since I wasn't using it much. It had plenty of power. I know this differs from Tim's opinion, but I have concerns about turbocharged...

The 2.3 I-4 is direct injection only, or was until 2024 Mustang models I believe. I don't know if Ranger gets dual injection or not. Maybe Tim can shed some light on this. The second generation of the 2.7 V6 (2018+) has both direct and port injection. Ford's site says Ranger with 2.7 V6 runs on...
