What did you do to your Ranger today?

Looks great!

I Can't put my finger on it, but for some reason I REALLY like your truck. ?

Ahhh, if only it were a SuperCab.

real world though . . . now that I am on my laptop.

wash media - https://theragcompany.com/products/the-cyclone-ultra-wash-pad

Exterior drying towel - https://theragcompany.com/collections/exterior-detailing-towels/products/the-liquid8r (I love the different sizes it comes in, I use the largest most often)

Exterior panel prep - scrubbing towel - https://theragcompany.com/collections/exterior-detailing-towels/products/edgeless-300

Coating buffing towel - https://theragcompany.com/collections/exterior-detailing-towels/products/the-eaglet-350

for glass or applying the qtechniq spray I use a towel that is soft and fluffy like the eaglet 350 on one side, and tighter knit pearls on the others side, like the edgeless 300. Apply with tighter knit side, and buff with the soft fluffy side.

yes, microfiber can get pricey - but when you're talking about a >40K vehicle is 20 bucks on towels really alot?

I also have a small assortment of brushes to get in the crevices along doors, windows and fuel doors. Before I start a vehicle, I always look inside the fuel door, that is a good indicator of how well the vehicle is maintained. If the inside of the fuel door is black and gunky filled, no matter what the owner says, they don't get their vehicle detailed on the regular.

Thanks for all the links! =)

don't blame me when you spend all your money on microfibers and are eating cat food ;-)

If you are a Costco member their Kirkland microfiber towels are high quality and affordable. Use them once on the cars then my wife washes them and uses them in the house until they become shop towels.

If that works for you, that works.

Cat food here I come, going to order a few of these as a surprise for Kate (who says romance is dead?). Not that she needs anymore, but there are some in your list she doesn't have and they look great!

Thanks! =)

there is something so nice about taking a fresh microfiber out of the bag and rubbing it on your face. . . errrr that sounds bad, it isn't intended to. . .

make sure you get her a nice bin to store them in too.

Bins! We've got bins!

And buckets, who knew you needed so many 5-gallon buckets? And caddys for the buckets, good lord ... it never ends.

Sneaks off to explore bins made specifically for microfiber towels ... =p

At long last I have new wheels and tires. Just put these on about a week ago. Got the ROW Ranger Raptor wheels from Levittown Ford Parts and grabbed some Falken Wildpeak AT3W 265/70/17 from the local Ford dealer. Used my points to save a bit of money too.

Looks meaner. Feels like it rides a touch higher. A little road noise from the tires is present but it doesn't bother me at all. Much better look overall and they perform better AND they'll double as winter tires. I regret my decision not to go for the Tremor so this soothes that regret a bit.

Looking good Joaquin. The Tremor was not out yet when I bought mine, but I too have since made some Tremor mods. Suspension, wheels, tires, etc. Ride and stance is a whole lot better.

Truck is looking good, Ron. Thank you!

You know I got my truck out of impatience. It's a 22 Splash Package and I thought it was unique, plus I was stressing about increasing car prices so I jumped on it the day I saw it. I was planning on a Powerboost but decided it was too pricey and went with the Ranger. I had an appointment at another dealer to look at a 21 Tremor and I really should have gone to see it. If I had, I'm almost positive I would have bought the Tremor.

Swapped tow hooks, removed air damn, upgraded to fx4 skid plate and black lower valence instead of painting it all the time...

Yesterday I refreshed the tracking page.

Today I got all giddy when the modules populated on motorcraftservice.com

The time is near.... In another 6-9 weeks... Lol
