That, my friend, is a big ass fan.

(I know.) I quoted a couple of these for my employer once. They didn't go for it. They went for a complete re-do of the entire HVAC system, (and believe it or not, it made things worse...)

I agree that Velocity Blue looks best when sitting there and staring at it while drinking a beer. Or just sitting there staring at it not drinking anything. As for me, whether or not I can see my truck while it's parked depends on how far away I had to go to find good clean and spaced apart parking spots. Yeah, I'm one of those guys. But I never double park or inconvenience other motorists. It's funny because my old truck, I just didn't care and would park anywhere I could without worry but now I'm scared of getting dinged or crunched and I ALWAYS park uphill from shopping cart corals. Call me crazy. I want my ride to remain unmolested. Luckily, the office I work in is ground level with huge windows that look directly out to the very near parking lot, so I can easily look out the window every so often to check on things. And I do indeed turn around every so often to take a look after parking. My wife thinks there is something wrong with me. There is. I don't have a 2024 Ranger Raptor. Yet. I never thought I'd have truck envy so soon (I just got mine October 2022) but here we are...

Btw, huge shout out to Chemical Guys for making the products which

I think you could probably edit the title a smidge and say "All Ranger lovers are ridiculous!" and not be too far off the mark.

Anybody else LOVE how this has turned into a SHOWCASE thread? :)
It's because we of the Iconic Silver Owners Association are so proud of our Iconic Silver Rangers !!!
They are the "Gold Standard" from which all other Rangers are judged !!! :handsinair:
There is no such thing as an "ugly color for a Ranger"....it's just some colors, like Iconic Silver, are so much more....."Iconic" that it is hard to see past all their Iconic Silver Colored Glory !!!

You’re welcome to admire the black truck! None of these pictures are taken right after washing.

I love the Scab. At this stage in my life I don't really need the back seats that fit adults. I can fit plenty of stuff back there, precious cargo, including our dog and it makes me very happy. Everything else goes in the bed of course. Love it ?

NOOOO! Don't center the subject in your pics, unless it's a headshot/portrait sort of thing. Remember the "Rule of Thirds", creates visual interest and trailing lines!

And yes, Cactus Gray for the win!!!

Ehhhhh... no shame here...8 months of ownership and washed it 2x
Picked it up on a Monday. Washed it this past Sunday in preparation for my Monday road trip.

And I really don't like washing vehicles. Long past my 25 year old "wash the paint off of them" attitude.

I get it. They are cool trucks. But some of you folks are a bit overboard with it.

I'd bet that if some of you clowns were out goofing off on a beautiful sunny day with your wife by your side and you decided to hit a brewery for a beer... some of you idiots would park out front in the sun and then deliberately choose a seat that let you stare at your Ranger the entire freaking time. How stupid are you? I mean come on! Enjoy the day. Enjoy the time with your wife. Just nuts. Some of you really need to take a chill pill about your truck. Just sayin'...

On another note. Noticed yesterday while having a beer that velocity blue just rocks in the sunlight.

Man I do LOVE my new Ranger.
:sunglasses:

You sound like the idiot.
