We're a low-population state but we have lots of trash!

I'm looking forward to you using this new found time to research more "must have" accessories for our Rangers! =D

Or maybe even invent some!

Talk about a guaranteed way to make money - just come up with anything for Rangers - hell, it could be a bolt-on turd and we'd go bananas for it and argue about it!

Did you say bolt on a TURD?? I think you're going to need a bigger truck to haul it away. ? :shock:

Happy retirement, @DukeCanBuildit ! Your showcase/build has given me plenty of ideas for the future with my Ranger. I hope you stay healthy and active while also making memorable trips without worry! ? I've been up in the air with a bed topper from SmartCap so whenever I see your showcase picture I'm like: "Yesss Im gonna do it!" haha. Definitely would get the drop down rack on the Smartcap so future me will thank, well, me.

Thanks - that SmartCap sounds like a great idea. All I can say is…

I don't know if I should be shocked you'd think I'd wear those or shocked you thought of those. :shock::oops:

BTW don't give David @subquark any ideas. I heard he's looking to branch out from wearing Spedos. ?

Congrats, Duke! Retirement is glorious and highly underrated. I've been retired for 11 years and have never looked back.

One characteristic of my retirement that I love: when Peg and I were both working and raising two daughters I might spend 30 minutes with a particular project or task. The end result was frequently not perfect but it was "good enough". Now, that same project is a two day love affair and it's not complete until I am 100% satisfied. It was a chore before but now it's fun and enjoyable!

Of course he wears Speedos - he’s French-Canadian.

The members from Florida and Myrtle Beach know what I’m talking about. ?

Unfortunately I do too. I remember when my parents had their house on Marco Island and you all would come down and drop trough on the beach. :surprised:

Thanks Al - I’m looking forward to saying, “No, let’s get that right, it’s still not good enough.” ?
