State Farm is one of the better insurers out there. Both Progressive and Geico will put a used windshield in a 6 month old vehicle. You couldn't pay me enough to use them.

There's absolutely no way I would have either of the last two companies mentioned for anything I care about.

Michigan is right there with you, if not higher. Blame it on "no fault" insurance and unlimited medical coverage.

Be careful with this...Insurance companies can't require you to get "3 different estimates". They can't tell you where to get repairs done either. Those "pre-approved" shops are simply shops who've signed a contract with the insurance company to get preferred status referrals by promising lower...

You should be more concerned about what the policy covers rather than "price per year." Some of the most frequently mentioned providers in this thread are the absolute worst in terms of how they take care of YOU when it comes time to repair your damaged vehicle or rental coverage. You're an...

Do you really think the difference is 10 cents? I used 10 cents as a reference to simplify it for everyone. I figured with a little bit of thought going into it, people would understand how much the possibilities are...:like:

If it's 10 cents cheaper to produce the A pillar w/o the handle and they sell a hundred thousand Rangers a year....

Adhesive will still be there after the pressure wash, but that's easy to remove.

How many F150 Raptor (or Ranger Raptor) owners will or do use their truck to it's full potential? Just like 150 horsepower (and higher) motorcycles, it's really about prestige and "looking good". Those who want to own the Top Dog will still buy the F150. Those who can't afford it will buy the...

Opinions are like ...holes... everyone has one and they all stink. I will say that certain tire sizes and tread styles react differently with different weight vehicles and wheelbases.

That's ok. It probably does everything that you need it to. None of the other mid-sized trucks had me even thinking about them. The Ranger has, but at this time I am still leaning to a F150 SuperCab. I still need to drive a Ranger and see what a truck with my pricing will be. Lots of time before...

Yes, those are favorable comments that I am happy to see. Historically the reason a "mid-size" truck has been chosen was for a smaller footprint based on needs, whether that meant narrower parking spaces or less cargo, towing or people. I believe the major reason that the smaller trucks have...

Sorry, I'm not about to drink the koolaid and believe everything they say. Read what they actually write about for performance and the other measurables. Considering Ford has had years to develop and update the Ranger, all the while knowing who the competition is, I expected better.

Looks like the Ranger did a little bit better than the Taco, but mpg was very disappointing.

I don't have to worry about anything with my state as far as requirements go. Who cares if it doesn't come with an integrated brake controller. I don't. If I need a brake controller because whatever I'm towing needs one, I'll add it. Not a big deal at all. Jeez, based on your logic, I wouldn't...

My truck is stock height....at 6'10" or so.

Pearl is 1/3 more expensive to paint than regular white and is impossible to touch up properly to "disappear" into the rest of the paint. I just had a customer's 2010 Navigator total out because of the added expense to repaint the White Tricoat. Any non-tricoat color and it would have been under...

Probably not. Most vehicles now have the wiring for the headlamps built directly into the main wiring harness rather than as a separate assembly. So what I typically see is a physical spot for the LED module, but no pigtail for it. This is the same for vehicles with a front wiring harness. The...

That's horrible fuel mileage. I don't think anyone can deny that the Ranger will be able to tow what it's rated for. It's a matter of whether it will be able to tow well...

If you like seeing the manufacturer's defects... check out GM trucks and SUVs. Above the wheel wells they are all wavy from the stamping. Same as Jeep products above the quarter panel windows. Or F150 doors. Those are some I can think of off the top of my head.
