(1) What did you and your truck do today?

On my XLT there is a rocker button on the frond of the column shifter. It is used to limit the highest gear. Great for going down hills without burning up the brakes. It also makes the gear numbers show in the cluster. You do not shift out of 'D'.

Odd thing, john......last night I heard an odd clicking/tapping noise that seemed to be from the left front end. It seems to have gone away though. I'm guessing ice somewhere. I won't be sorry for last week's temperatures to return.....
Let's hope yours is something simple, if it can't simply be ice or something.

Well that's a good thing, going away, that is! Looks like it's gonna be pretty cold here the next few days, so a better inspection may have to wait. I'm hoping it's just ice, but my quick looksee I did last night, I didn't see any. Oh well, glad I've got the Ranger, and it doesn't look like any big snow, so I'm still good to go.
Let's hope yours goes away too

Installed a front level lift with KMC XD811 RS2 wheels size 20x9 -12mm with Toyo Open Country R/T ties size 33x12.5R20.
I love the look, hate the combination. Tires have already been rebalanced twice in less than 12 hours, wont stop vibrating, makes an annoying oscillating hum going down the hiway, and cant turn my wheel halfway while backing out of my driveway without rubbing. Needless to say, getting rid of these tires, didnt want Toyo in the first place but let a salesman talk me into with "how much better they are now" blah blah they are just as terrible as thier sister brand Nitto is.
Going back to BFG A/T. Have had five sets on five different vehicles in the past and never had any issues. Should have put my foot down with the shop here and told them put the tires I want on my truck, or walked out. Now I have to go back.

Maybe its the wheels and not the tires??

How exactly are you going to mount them? Also are they water-resistant like that since you took them out of their cases?

I was thinking hard about how I was going to mount them, I think I'm just going to 3M them to the underside of the top bezel of my grille. If I don't like it, I'll try something else
