I wouldn't be worried about them taking the key code from a theft perspective, anyone in their service or parts department can look up that code with the VIN, they don't need that little label to get it. I provide key codes to customers and locksmiths all the time (after seeing proof of...

Hi all, I have been looking at getting my first travel trailer to tow with the ranger. 2025 XLT, w/ advanced tow package, 2.7L 4x4. Out of all the brands available in my area, I have come up with two options. The floor plan that I really like the best and checks all my boxes is the Puma Ultra...

If it helps, this is my timeline so far

I don't understand this at all. Your dealer could easily sublet this to any hitch installation company, they could install a custom wire-in 7pin connector and any number of aftermarket trailer brake controllers in a couple of hours and it would only cost them in the 3-digits of dollars at...

Well, It looks like my truck had its birthday last week. For context, this is coming up to Canada. They show an estimated delivery of the end of March, which seems faster than I was expecting. I assume this means estimated delivery to the dealership, not including the time they are going to take...

If its a small independent dealer, or any dealer that does floor plan financing for their lot inventory instead of buying their inventory with cash, they will lose less money selling the vehicle for 2000 under what they paid for it than by paying the interest required to keep it unsold on the...

Just an update if anyone is following order -> build dates, I followed up with a sales manager at my dealership. My salesman left and that might be why I didnt get any updates, but my order now has a VIN and a build week of Feb 24th, assuming no wrenches get thrown into the mix with tariff...

Something is wrong there, did you leave a deposit at your dealer? Have they let you see the order code in the order bank, given an order number or anything? Is it properly retail ordered or are you waiting on a stock order? If you left a deposit id refund and go to someone else.. I put my order...

I have unheated garage and usually use a block heater at -15C or below, but it definitely wont hurt anything to use it at higher temps. You can also look into the pour point of the engine oil you are using, a lot of high end 5w30 synthetics have pour points of temps as low as -50, the lower the...

I didn't know that, thank you! I just have to hope they will keep me properly informed and hopefully get a VIN soon for tracking

Hi, Is it weird to have no email confirmation from Ford on an order after 2 months? I see many posts where people got some sort of confirmation next day, I have no email, or scheduling date yet. The dealer says the order is in and has an order number, but no scheduling. Order was placed November...

It is actually a useful service but id be surprised if any 6g rangers are high enough mileage to need this, we usually recommend this at 60,000KM / 40K miles at our shop, and even that interval is probably a little high. The 2.7 with direct and port will not need this service. Theres a couple...

I just ordered a 2025 in Alberta too! XLT. Got an order number, but no email from ford or scheduling date yet...
