Well first I got it stuck (regret not having 4WD):

Then broke the radiator and multiple air conditioning parts :(:

Didn't think anything was functionally broken, drove about 30min, then lost all of my coolant at once:

Still in the shop about a month later waiting on the hose for the radiator :confused: thanks COVID.

My brother helped me install a Gator SRX roll-up tonneau cover. Instructions were a complete mess since it came with three different sheets, with some being Ranger specific. Having the rack bolted to the truck this involved removal and re-installation of the KBVoodoo Rack and CVT tent.

Well...finally got my RC level kit (2.5") installed and new tires. Went with the Duratrac 265/70/17. Oh man...completely different truck. Also, I installed the Aeroskin hood deflector/bra a few weeks ago but forgot to post it... did a little modification on it by spraying bedliner material on it.

Oh man, that is sweet! My boyfriend bought a 2.5 inch leveling kit for my Ranger, I hope my truck looks as good as yours.

Not trying tub salt your wound but just out of pure curiosity do you have a bash plate on your model and do you think it would have saved you ?

It will look very good. All the trucks look better with the leveling kit on. When you put the new "shoes" on...well it completely changes the truck.. appearance and driving.

That's why I always go with 4x4 vehicles just incase I need to get unstuck. Hopefully they get it fixed

No and I totally wish I did. I think it would’ve saved me completely here because that was the exact part of the car that seems to have hit something.

So I was on the beach and there’s an access road, but it had a few big puddles on it. We gauge tested one of them, it looked fine, so we headed through with my truck. Well somehow we missed that it dipped down a bit in the middle and somehow my truck bottomed out in it (Although none of us felt it at all). Lo and behold, we get through just fine but there’s a plastic piece hanging off of the front, part of it still in the water, and the radiator is visibly a bit bent. Turns out when it bent like that it crushed a few other AC components as well.

Installed a truck bed mat and a tail gate mat. Since my truck came to me used, the bed was scratched up a bit. I did some touch up and the mats. Might be a bed liner in my future. Mats were cheap and do the job for now.

Another small detail in keeping with the black and white theme of the pickup. My XL didn't come with a trim ring for the ignition so I bought a white one from Josh Berand.
