What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

[DukeCanBuildit]

I picked my up from the dealer...

They say the leak is fixed...

I also chirped the tires, for the first time... Been driving the outback for the last 3 weeks, and you can't chirp those tires no matter what you do.

Tomorrow I wash and detail the outback (road tripping from south Florida to Colorado and back makes an icky exterior) and The Little Blue Truck, as it's called apparently.

Speaking of chirping tires, on my trip down east, I pulled out of my cottage laneway onto a paved 2-lane rural road and got my foot into it. I had solid traction off the start but it chirped the tires on the shift. What the what?!?!

I’ve chirped them off the start but never on the shift. I wasn’t sure if it was something on my tires, on the road surface, a touch of lean leftover from making the turn, or the camber of the road, but it seemed like I was well past the turn and pin-straight at the time. Anyway, it sure produced a big grin.

Good luck with your move and have a safe trip. Make sure you give it a good coat of Graphene before leaving. It'll cut through the wind and you'll get better gas mileage. ?

And, with graphene, this will happen a lot:

Took my girl for a ride and a run. I went offloading. Off the main road. ??

Richard, that edge is kind of high. Did you use 4H or 4L? ??

4H Dave - everyone knows @Synfulz only uses 4L for the speed bumps at the mall. Right Richard?

Thought I’d start a thread to post about what you have done with your Ranger today or any day for that matter!

Be it hauling, towing, off-roading, mall crawling, grocery getting, tire roasting, flexing on Toyota’s or anything else.

If you did, it let’s see it!

Painter brake Calipers Blue to match Velocity Blue Ranger. You don't see much of the calipers, used 500 deg. Dupli-Color metalcast Blue (3 coats) Two coats of high gloss 500 deg. clear. To do it right plan on doing a lot masking & using a lot of masking tape. Time will tell how long it last, but no big deal to take it off.

I introduced my Ranger to it's newest room mate. I won't drive the Ranger during the "salt" season. So I bought a used Jeep Wrangler Unlimited to use for the winter.

Today, I took the Ranger through the Touchfree wash and went for a drive to visit to my FIL to see how he’s doing and to drop off a tin of Belgian cookies. One of his buddies dropped off an 8-pack of craft beers at Christmas. He figured I would appreciate it more so he sent me home with it.

All the way home, I kept thinking….beer for cookies?

Good Trade ?
