Got this today—a custom bed for Cheech—semi-permanent for the Scab. We'll see tomorrow how well it fits in Soupie and I'll reveal its ridiculous price (could have bought a Lariat).

And we'll also see how close the color comes to the Wet Okole seat covers. Race Red and Teal, it's like a party when you mixed far too many types of booze (and ate too many nachos).

Not a very big box ...

A Sunbrella cover to go over the Dacron-wrapped foam (read $$$).

The foreman says it's good and only for him. No stoopid cat allowed—but Tito can visit.

And a little peace of mind (the US made part, not the catches-fire-in-California bit). =D.

Finally broke down and got the tent attachment for my 8.2 x 8.2 awning.

And it is not exactly glamping... but... these will be nice once hung up inside it.

I am going to see about making a swamp cooler to add to the trio for some of that sweet sweet ice cold air flow.

I'm really surprised you're not going with a modified, old window unit AC for the GA heat and humidity!

Honestly my day trip / camping will be at a minimum during the summer and early fall. On those few trips I think a big DIY swamp cooler will work good.

So ... @AzScorpion posted a pic a few days ago of this handy thing for us with reach issues (middle of tonneau for me), and I had to get one too!

Plus, that @AzScorpion guy also got me hooked on 303 products. My graphene is supposed to get here Saturday but I did get some applicators for it and Kate got this 303 tire stuff. Clearly, @AzScorpion's influence is contagious ...

I'll need to add some pool noodle padding or something similar to the tire step dealio because the frame touches Kate's 19" wheels, and we can't have that type of nefarious mayhem on our watch! =D

On another note, my steelies have some type of markings on them from like a paint crayon or something - a handwritten thing - that doesn't blast off with high pressure washing. I haven't tried rubbing alcohol yet, but any other suggestions (yah, yah, I'm not getting other rims!). =p

Ignition Trim Ring. For some reason Ford did not include this on the 5g Rangers and it leaves the ignition area with an unfinished look. It is only for the key ignition models not the push button starts. This is a quality product and has an OEM appearance. I chose the glow in the dark model. It installs easily and fits perfectly, improving the look of the ignition panel. Came with detailed instructions.

A shout out to Dean who is a fellow Ranger owner and member on this site and markets this item on ebay. I have no investment in this product but am impressed with it and encourage you to consider it if are going to order one: Dean's 3D Printed Ignition Trim Ring Bezel (Build/Buy Thread) | 2019+ Ford Ranger and Raptor Forum (5th Generation) - Ranger5G.com

I'm starting to see a pattern here. :oops:

Try alcohol on the marks and they should come right out. Then put some wax on afterwards to protect it.

+! on loving this mod and technical level, probably the only thing I didn't cuss at (yes, I cussed at the Husky floor liners). =D

Okay, I'll give it a shot right now. But waxing the rims? Hmm, I'd have to wash them first!

But I can't play tough-and-dirty guy much longer, your 303 graphene gets here Saturday and that'll probably go on everything. =(

You know that's not fair!

That's not everyday, I was away from home the day before - so this is two days of packages! =p
