It’s been 6 weeks to the day since my accident and we’re heading out soon for a 10:00 am flight to WA to pick up Money Pit 2. Man I miss driving my Ranger and I just hope this one runs as well as the first one did. Good thing I can now start fresh with a new warranty and I’ll have 96K before I have to worry about the transmission going.....?:oops:

:inspect: After the inspection we should be in & out fairly quickly since there’s no loan and I don’t need them to go over anything on the truck. I’d bet I know more than they do. Lol I’m hoping to leave there around 2:00 pm and head straight back and I made our first nights stop in La Grange, OR which is roughly 260 miles away. I figure that’ll be a good drive to break it in some and make a few stops along the way. Then the next two days will be about 500 miles each and we should be home late in the day Thursday if all goes well. ? Pics to come of Money Pit 2.

What, you're not stopping at 500 miles to change the oil and send it off for analysis?!

You're just asking for trouble, I read on the internet you must do that.

Enjoy keeping the rpm's low on your long drive too ;)

Safe travels!!!
Thanks Brother!
Exciting days ahead for you Dave have a safe flight, you're gonna love your new Tremor!
Half of me is happy that my dealer cannot get an order for a new 6G Raptor.
Thanks Tyler! I can't wait to get my Tremor and finally be done with this. I hear you on the new one as part of me just hopes this one runs and well as my '19 but there's still a part of me that really wants a Raptor. lol

I drove by another Bronco raptor this morning - can we all just agree that those fender flares are hideous on such an expensive machine? Seriously, it looks like something I would have bought from jc Whitney when I was 16.
