I have owned this explorer for 3 weeks... I am pretty sure I have a disease. Soon to be a divorce disease.. :D I sold my 2003 Ex and bought this one: 2008 Explorer 4x4: Without Inserts BEFORE (3 weeks ago...) Other current Fords: 2013 Fusion Titanium: 2012...

Who do I contact to change my username to 3FordFamily?

My truck is getting old I am pretty sure in the next 6 months I'll need a transmission anyway. Anyone have some prices on an extended drivetrain or any other warranty from Ford OR from a third party company? I had a buddy who did this on his explorer, and they paid for his tranny after 3...

2003 Ranger Edge 2wd 3.0 140k miles *Tranny code D (5r55e transmission) *Gear ratio I believe is 4.10 (Code 97) if i recall. So took the truck in to have the codes read, the following showed up: P0442 (Evap Small Leak) - been there for a year, was told to ignore B1602 - Possible anti-theft...

Here is my 2003 Ranger Tremor (Edge with small interior upgrades, mostly audio - pioneer) Next mod: TRADE BEDS! License plate says ganger cause everybody hates on it as a mini truck... my next truck WILL be a F150 Platinum edition, but I still love my little ganger. It's my 4th...

Been looking and having difficulty locating them, most aren't labeled! I did torsion twist for I think 2 inches. From fender to ground the front js 34.5 inches, and 35 in the rear. Factory was significantly less but when I lifted I measured incorrectly to wheel ml to ground, so I dont know...

We both have black rangers, I looked up the paint and it's the same code, My worry is the tail lights, I will keep my factory wiring, correct? The tail lights bolt up just fine both ways? I know we will trade bumpers, so I'll have to paint the gray/chrome xlt bumper to look more like my...

I can't decide what to do. I kind of like a bumper but a roll pan is cheaper. How difficult is it to add one to a 2003 ranger edge (tremor) stepside/styleside? Anyone have a black used either one? Need some advice here. Would trade my bed for regular bed too if anyone is interested.

2003 3.0 Ranger Tremor (edge) edition, 135k miles. Ok so I went outside after remote starting my truck tonight. Got in, accidentally hit the brake and killed the remote start, then started it really quick afterwards. I've done this a few times with no problem, but this time I noticed it ran...

5R55e vs Manual Transmission? I heard a lot of bad things about the manual transmissions, but i prefer need opinions. Liability is the number one factor.

Before this part broke (my body guy found it while fixing my truck, may have broken it) all of my settings worked fine. Now, the only setting that works on AC/HEAT is the vents. What is this part? Where does it go to? How do I fix this? Blend door? Vaccum? The fender has to come off to get...

Is this possible? My truck is black. Very few light scratches near the top, I'd give the overall condition a 9-9.5 out of ten. I'll even throw in my tinted tail lights on the deal. Seems they are the same size only the step side isn't as wide. Some people like the stepside, some don't. I...

My buddy was doing bodywork on my 2003 ranger edge and lost one of the black metal clips that holds the headlight in place. They "slide" in place to secure the headlight. Thanks in advance!

I am a 24 year old college student. I live in central Indiana. I have owned over 15 Fords (bought/sold many of them for profit before I went to college) My first car was a ford explorer: Ok I know most of my rides aren't going to be most of y'alls cup of tea.. but here we go. My 2006...

I see all over this forum to "Keep the RPMs high" on the 3.0. Why is this? And does that mean that when daily driving the vehicle, don't drive like grandpa? I always get unbelievable miles and mileage out of my cars because I don't accelerate past 2500 RPMS, often around 2000 for each shift...
