GVWR isn't the weight of the camper/trailer. It's the gross vehicle weight rating. Essentially it's how much weight in total the trailer can be loaded down with gear to be safe for the trailer axles/frame and brakes.
I had a 97 2v 4.6 and it was the best vehicle I have ever owned. Bought it with 170k and solid it with 200k. I wouldn't let the stickers put you off of it. I put similar stickers on mine because I liked and it made it stand out from the rest. I was very proud of that car.
As mentioned in other posts, Ford now offers factory performance tune on the Ranger and it's still covered by warranty. My experience with tunes on vehicles is that they shift better (with automatic trans) and thus I'd expect possibly longer life out of an auto trans with tune.
Also, FWIW my...
I was under the impression that GPS worked everywhere as well until a couple weekends ago when I was heading up to a campground in the mountains and no GPS signal. Google maps though and I know they rely heavily on both cell service and wifi hotspots as well to pinpoint the location.
Welcome to the forums! X-plan pricing is "employee pricing".
Dealer Invoice - (0.4% * Dealer Invoice) + Administration Fee. Admin fee capped at $275 I believe.
A few ways to get x-plan pricing:
-own 100 shares of Ford stock for 6 months
-join a club such as Mustangs Club of America for $25...
Removable top is what makes it a Bronco. Otherwise it would be a rebadged Ford Everest with better suspension on the upper trims.
For the rest of you that don't want the option for a fixed roof I wish they had that option for you but if it came down to only removable roof or non-removable roof...
I came across this image again today which I've seen on here before.
Anyone with insider knowledge know if any of these other body panels will make it to production? Specifically looking at those fenders that are a spitting image of the EB fender cutouts...
Looks like that package may have a direct wiring option; hopefully that is the case!
Otherwise the aftermarket will come in.
Edit: aftermarket will have multiple solutions anyways but would be nice if the Ford package has direct wire anyways.
That is correct, in 2011 Ford introduced the 3.5 ecoboost in the F150 and replaced the 5.4 v8 with the 5.0 v8. The 5.4 and 5.0 are both considered the "modular" engine family from ford as was the 4.6 and the 6.8 v10. All great engines IMO.
I searched for a while before finding a screaming deal on mine. Needs a little work but mechanically in great condition (3 on the tree inline six).
I did come across one that was $17k, 302 with floor shift manual, had a little rust but not cancerous by any means.
I agree with @FastM400...
Likely nothing. The 3.0 ecoboost is allegedly on it's way for the Raptor/Warthog version of the Bronco and in the Explorer ST it makes 400 hp and 415 lb-ft of torque; an updated factory tune could easily match the Wranglers 450/450 if they do bring it to production.
Also, the Explorer st does...
@FirstOnRaceDay hey Devin, I feel like I owe you an apology for some of my comments in this thread which were condescending. Thank you for your time and commitment as a moderator here and I respect your opinions and insight even if we may not agree on everything. -Randy
I understand the cost of a swap at this point but IMO it was an oversight. 5.0 really doesn't take up much more space than the 2.7 does it?
When I was searching I was literally looking cross country on autotempest. My other limiting factor was price and what I felt comfortable paying for a used...
1) in the F150 XLT the 5.0 costs $1,000 more than the 2.7. Not sure where the other $24k on your estimate is coming from.
2) sure
3)when I was looking I very specifically wanted an fx4, 5.0, 6.5 ft box - in several months of searching I think I came across 3-5 of them and probably skipped over...
