I finished up my Eibach install, bolted on my Fuel Shoks/Grabbers and took it for a drive. I’m very happy with the new feel of the truck. The stiffer ride makes it handle much better! This is the 2.25” setting using the stock springs. Alignment tomorrow then hopefully a wash this weekend so I can remove the blue from the white letters.

Wow! That’s the toughest looking Ranger I’ve ever seen! Love it.

Hi Folks,

Went out to the Ranger and cranked it up to venture out for wife's meds that were in at our UPS mail box. Then tried to figure out how to install the LED bed lights similar to one of our moderators. So far it is LED lights 1, Phil 0....no elegant solution...Do not like the wiring options....Likely will abandon the install....at least at this time. Factory spray in bed liner and MX4 Revolver tonneau cover. Where to mount is an issue. Want to series the LED strips, not parallel them.

Best,

Today I went to the dealership where I bought my Ranger to pick up my license plates. I went to the parts department and they said the 42,000 points I earned for buying the Ranger can only be used for service.
Has anyone encountered this? I’ve never used Ford Pass points so I don’t know how they actually work. Anyone have some insight?


I don't have it broken out. I had 84,000 points and used 78,226 for both, including tax.

Or ask members who just posted about using points for the exact reason you would use them because the search feature on here sucks.

Washed her again so I could put some goodies on. AVS Hood protector and tailgate letters from BD Trims. Also, the Bounty Hunter is born!

Hi Folks,

I was going to back the Ranger and the MKX out of the garage to scrub the floor only to receive a phone call that my neighbor passed away from the virus. So the Ranger remained in the garage as I had no inclination to follow through on garage cleaning.... Please...folks Take this virus seriously.

This hit close to home.

Stay safe and healthy,

Sorry to hear that Phil. Stay safe!

A guy I work with knew the first casualty in Oregon. That one hit kind of close to home as well. We are approaching almost a half a million people now. It seems to be slowing slightly, but that is still a lot of people infected.

Hi Phil,

Sorry to hear about your neighbor. I was talking with a friend from back east yesterday and his uncle just passed away from the virus a week ago. His cousin had it and said it was the worst pain he's ever felt in his life! He went o bed feeling fine and woke up in a puddle of sweat and was aching from head to toe. He ended up in the hospital for a few days,got better only to have it flare up again. Scary how this affects people in so many different ways.
