    Ham Radio Install in SR5 ?

    Looks like you could always bolt a steel plate to the front of it if needed.

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    I don't this one is going to have too many first year teething issues. There is not really anything "new" about it.

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    I am starting to change my tune on this truck. Ok now that more info is out I feel this new Ranger has a solid platform except maybe the engine?? I just don't trust Ford tech and this motor is about as high tech as it comes. Fully boxed frame with six crossbars, same 10 speed transmission as...

    Clutch’s deep thoughts thread...

    I wish! But as usual America gets shafted. All we get here are dumbed down versions of the built vehicles Europe and Oz has access to. Irritates me to no end.

    Why you should not listen to the manufacturer's 'Filled for life' claim

    Yeah servicing the Ford is easy to do, which is surprising given how Ford seems to not want us to work on them.. The Toyota not so much. Yes of course it's cheaper, my point was it should not be this difficult to service a transmission. If you knew what was involved you would see my point...

    Why you should not listen to the manufacturer's 'Filled for life' claim

    The trans on my '16 4Runner is the only thing that is a complete pia to service. It really irritates me it's like this. I honestly don't know what to do about it? Should I service it? I tow a lot. Or should I just run it until it dies and replace the trans then? So frustrating. I'm...

    HA! You should. I'm just saying personally if I put that much into such a bad to the bone vehicle I just don't know if I could part with it. Very nice ride man. An if I did I think I would regret it, but that's me. I wish you the best in your decision. An also wish I could afford it. :)

    4Runner SR5 - Can it be upgraded

    Gonna be a long time before that 4 is worthless. I don't tow more than 80% of a vehicles tow rating no matter what vehicle it is. It is just a rule I stick to.

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    I was just kidding about the fake book, it is what it is, and yes I am probably missing out on things..... I swear it seems Ford makes their vehicles so an average consumer can't work on them. As far as the Superduty diesel, yeah, nightmare to work on. They don't design the cab to easily come...

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    You are right, it's not old at all. What I meant was compared to other vehicles now a days it doesn't have near the tech. It seems people are forgetting that driving is at it's base an analog task. I don't like the direction things are heading so I may just be one of those guys going...

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    But how can we text and drive without those features?? :rolleyes: I can't stand nannies. Probably why I am not sure what I am going to do if my 2016 4Runner ever wears out. This vehicle is the perfect blend of tech and old school for me. Not too much tech and so reliable. I was jonesing...

    Tex's '18 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro build

    I'm pretty much in the same boat with you as far as suspension goes. Those BP-51's and King's are very nice but the older I get the more I just want simple things that work for a long time with no or minimal maintenance required. So I am also leaning towards the standard OME kit. I have had...

    Tex's '18 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro build

    Yeah do what you want as you and the wifes happiness is all that matters. I am keeping mine stock height as long as I can. When the suspension is worn out I will lift it, most likely OME. I have the C4Fab sliders with RCI aluminum skids. Sometimes I want to lift it but then for me that opens...

    2019 Ford Ranger Taking Orders

    Not a fan of the ecocrap or TFL. I think I will keep my 4Runner for a long time. An then just may buy old used refurbished after that. All this electronic crap, lane warnings, fake shifters, stop/start tech, has me longing for old school and reliability. I must be getting old.
