Are you a giant or something? I'm trying to fathom how my knee would ever touch that...
I don’t know how I’m doing it. I tried briefly to find out how it’s happening but it was too difficult an analysis. I’d rather just put that piece of tape on there and continue on with my life.

I do that all the time, and on my wife's Escape too. Great idea, do you have a link to where you got it? Thanks!

I'm 5'5" and have managed to bump it a few times.

Maybe it's a short person thing? I'm 6'4" and have never come close to it.
Aha, you may be on to something...I'm 6'0", and hit, you're 6'4" and don't...we need a survey, my theory is there is a limit to the knee hitting the headlight sw, and if you are over it, your knee will graze the fresh air vent or turn signal, and not the light switch. height, seat retraction in inches, XL spreadsheet, algorithm, 3 equations, 2 unknowns, e to the x, log base 10, stuff like that.

E=MC2…….but
“This formula is valid only for low to relatively high speeds; for extremely high-speed particles it yields values that are too small. When the speed of an object approaches that of light (3 × 108metres per second, or 186,000 miles per second), its mass increases, and the laws of relativity must be used. Relativistic kinetic energy is equal to the increase in the mass of a particle over that which it has at rest multiplied by the square of the speed of light.”

Not sure yet
2/4 wheels down before it started raining. Going to have to drive around like two-face this week. Side vents on the way, which will be the last of the debadging. Engine shroud also coming to hopefully help reduce injector sound, damper for when I'm using my tailgate extender, and rokblokz mudflaps.

Current wish list:
FX4 skids
These rock sliders https://www.shrockworks.com/Ford-Ranger-Rock-Sliders-pr-16300.html
15-20% window tint
Maybe this bull bar https://www.tacautoparts.com/collec...uck-front-bumper-brush-grille-guard-nudge-bar

Don't think I'm going for the full winch bumper replacement/prerunner, so just having a bit of extra protection and something protecting the intercooler is really all I need. Maybe a place to mount lights if I get real fancy. Things to dream about anyway.
