What did you do to your Ranger today?

[Markubis]

S mode is fun to drive around in and really wakes the truck up. You just substitute Miles Per Gallon for Smiles Per Gallon. ?

.
Oh snap!
That's what the S is for...it goes in front of miles!



*mind blown*

Installed old antenna cause got tired of no rock stations.


...Immediately clipped garage door hanger with it.

You need to get yourself some SiriusXM satellite radio. Worth the money IMO. Lots of rock stations there. Plus with favorites added you get notified when favorite bands or songs are played.

So added some "Raptoresque" lighting. Some may like, some will not. I honestly was not sure if I would like until I was done. But I like the round led's as they match the round headlight projectors.
Also one other added item. So when my truck is parked in the carport the back end hangs out in the weather. So if I have cleaned my truck then it rains the back is all wet and I have to wipe it down. So I grabbed one of those sun shades to keep the rain and what not off the back.

Mine should arrive today - I’ll post pics after I get them installed this weekend.

Looks sick next up on the list for me! How bad was it of an install and what light bar are you running? Thxs

Wasn’t terrible but definitely nerve wracking. You drill into your roof 10 times. Only two of those are rough. The ones over the B pillars are extremely close to the airbags. As in I was pulling the bags out of the way and protecting them with my hand and having the bit hit my fingers. I used a sharp step up bit and drilled small pilot holes. Went pretty quick but have a shop vac handy for the metal shavings.

Also the silicone I used was black rtv and it makes a mess. Still nervous about water infiltration as the spacers you use look like they would hold water. Hoping I have everything sealed.

The light bar is the 42” slim bar from Cali Raised. Relatively affordable and fits the prinsu. The wiring harness they sent with it wasn’t long enough so I have another on order.

I got use to SiriusXM when I had the free subscription in my Jeep. So I called them to see how much it would be to activate it for a month. We're taking the Ranger on a trip and it would be nice to not have to always be searching for new stations in every state. She gave me 3 months for $2.00! What a deal, now I can listen to Lithium & Hair Nation the whole time. lol

It's been a week since I received my Ranger. The dealer filled the gas tank, which I was happy to see at the current gas prices.

But I'll fill this today, since they didn't:

Recently, ditch lights, light bar, light bars, engine cover, level kit.

I think there is a station dedicated to "Sounds to Drive By', and i believe one is the sound of a "squeaky damper during winter", and another is the sound of a tailgate, without a damper, slamming open.

I worked for the UP from Las Vegas to Yermo until I started working for the Union fulltime. I am very familiar with that area.

Cool!!!


There is a way to go to the extreme without the use of a light bar.

FedEx just dropped of my Gator EFX tonneau cover, so that'll get installed this weekend.

After owning my new ranger, I had the low brake fluid light come on after day 4. Rear caliper was defective and leaking it all out…

I don't listen to the radio enough to justify that expense. $10 a month for spotify on my phone, more than enough for the few times I need jams.
