Out for ski adventures today. Your Ranger was doing?

Hauling wood cutting equipment to clean up after the Great Texas Ice storm of 2023. (The JD was hauling cut wood.)

That's right you guys got pounded with ice , not much worse than ice.

To keep the manly badge hauling a bale of hay every once in a while is required.
It is a New Mexico Alfalfa bale, the hay is used to cover my potatoes in case of a late freeze.

Strange, I see it. ??

Had two warnings appear on the dash as I started the Ranger today.
1. blind spot not working
2. cross traffic detector not working
(also next to the cruise control Icon there were tiny tiny icons telling of the same two outages)

I drove for a bit then stoped and then started again and it seem to clear itself and the warning did not appear.
I'll report back if they appear again.

Mine do that when the censors are covered with snow, mud or frost.

OK, I guess I'm slowly learning the Ranger language.

1. Passenger Door doesn't unlock. It's telling me to put in a new battery.
2. Sensor warnings alert. It's asking to be washed.

Still out in the snow here.

I just noticed that my neighbors Ranger looks to be the same color and layout as yours. Prior her and her husband had a GMC Sonoma that looked pristine, though this is Maine, so looks are deceiving.

They're really nice trucks.

If a company names their small truck the Ranger, it should maintain that in some way. Its their small truck, right? Isn't that the language we use? Well, its not a small truck any more. And Ford isn't making small, simple trucks anymore, yet they still call it a Ranger?

If I say "its a small truck" and I'm in the forest, all by myself, does anyone hear that?

Isn't the Maverick Ford's current small "truck"?

 

[KennyG]

The Ranger was originally an F-150 trim level, then a mid-size truck. It was never really a small truck, the Courier that preceded it was smaller. It's bigger than it used to be but it was never really small.

I think they look like a fun little ride, though one may want to be mindful of how far you push that 'Tremor' package. I imagine they'd make a rough dirt road a hoot, especially with the twin-turbo.
