great truck and its got all the best options without too much fluff.
Thanks dude! Ironically enough, despite not having leather or a sunroof, the 302A with Tech package is better teched out than my 2015 Audi S3. Couple things I am going to lose in the dash functionality wise, but I am 99% sure the only things I did in the dash was oil temp and phone calls.

PDI tech was on vacation, which I COMPLETELY get (since I am overdue for more than a singular day off that is packed with other business), but it does put him behind and it will be a couple days. Saturday is still the earliest and I am PRAYING it comes through

I did trucky things with it yesterday and nearly doubled the mileage from 49 to 87! Two runs to the dump and one with a treadmill up to my daughter's home (I even used cruise control which I never do, but the Ranger's basic one worked great).

The second and third pics are while I wait for the BedRug and I think I'll patent it and sell it for $999! The Bed Burrito! =D

Ha ha, you can see how I get in the bed too!

Hi Folks,

Ranger took Margie and me on a multiple stop adventure today....First was to deliver a exploded battery and a old spent 5 gal propane cylinder to the Transfer station...then to Fry (read Kroger) supermarket chasing Coors beer for a dinner party tomorrow we are hosting and the fellow from Bend Or. drinks it... (like intercourse by the lake, F*cking near water). Then to O'Reily AutoParts to get my core charge on the okay battery. Counter person opend the door for me and I almost dropped the darn battery there in the doorway....Heavy! Guy asked me how old I was???? I told him 73...He told me most 70s old people cannot even get a battery that heavy into their vehicle, much less than getting it to the counter for a refund... I am quite sore from that expereince after install two new ones in the Motorhome......Then back home just in time for our noon naptime...

Best,
Phil
Something tells me that after wrestling those batteries into your motorhome, if all you had in the fridge were those watery cans of Coors, at least one would have been a welcome refresher. ?

If you knew how many times I've checked it today. I may need some help :like:
After all this time saying it's built, Saturday it finally said Shipped.
Hoping it shows up mid week next week but who knows...
That's great news!! I know when I was waiting for my Jeep I contacted Jeep Chat (it's an online live chat) 3 times a day. By the end I knew them all by name and I'm sure they were glad to see me finally get mine and not bugging them every day. lol Good luck and I hope you get it next week as it doesn't have to far to go.

Geeze, At first I read this wrong. I thought you said "I took a dump too. What a time to be alive". ?:shock: I was going to suggest seeing a Dr if you were that excited! ?

Yeah the dealership internet person is probably tired of me firing off emails HAHAHA
Especially when I look on their website and see new vehicles popping up that look like dealer taken photos and not the stock Ford ones and no phone call saying mine showed up... :headbang:

Sadly the shipping is a mess everywhere today. At least you're somewhat close to MAP and there shouldn't be many delays once it shipped. I guess those North of the border are experiencing even longer delays now.

I love going to the dump! And Spring cleaning is here (well, overdue I guess). So a few more loads plus a summer of trining trees and brush! Woohoo! =D

Goes in for step bars (not that I need them but I have a friend who does) and front window tinting tomorrow, so later this evening I'll be giving it a bath.

Hooray for being shipped! It's so brutal waiting. I checked the heck out of both trackers and downloaded the window sticker every time the date on it changed (although that was the only thing I could tell ever changed on it).

Here's hoping you get it very soon!
