The "What do you hate about your Ranger today" thread

The title is pretty self explanatory, what's bothering you about your Ranger today?

For me today, it's squeaking brake pads along with vibrating parts and panels everywhere in the truck. It's making for some annoying, noisy rides to and from work these days.

well my freakin clear coat is peeling off above the driver side window,and the sliding glass get's on my nerves with all the squeeking noise, I think I'm going to replace it with a solid window, I never use the sliding glass any way. other than that I love my truck.
