Guess the high rear end and flat area of the tailgate really cuts into the mpg at speed !!!!

Will let you know eventually, as I've been midly curious myself.

I finished the install of the Belltech lowering kit on my XLT, installed the Raptor grill, and tuned the stereo with my RTA. We are getting cold in MI, so bummed I can't put the Sparco wheels and sticky tires on until spring, but something to look forward to. I'm planning on doing a full write up on the Belltech install as I ran into a few issues others may want to know about before a similar install, but IMO totally worth it.

Gave it the last wash and detail of the year and smoked a fine cigar while I was at it (La Gloria Cubana Serie R).
Pretty soon I won't be able to do either. Getting a new left knee on Wednesday and I can't smoke for a couple days prior to surgery and won't be moving well for a few weeks after.
Also cut my grass and my mom's at her new house. Gonna get all the use of my OE knee that I can.

OE knee - you’re crackin’ me up.
Good luck with the surgery.
My FIL had both done at different times - first one, he was slow, careful, and a bit needy for a few weeks. Second one, he was waiting for me at the hospital elevator and walked to the car to go home. ?
I hope it all goes well Jon! ?

They've got me scheduled for the first surgery of the day, PT in the afternoon, and go home after that. I didn't want to stay overnight. They told me no kneeling for at least six months so I don't know I'm going to get my tires cleaned and Armor All'd.
Plan on getting the other one done next year.

I winterized the Ranger. Awning removed. BillieBars cross-bars w/ bike mounts removed. Winter tires/wheels installed. Washed it and added a liberal application of wax.
The cheap bottle jack I purchased to help with this was much faster than using the factory jack as I did in the Spring. The jack is a POS though and will be returned. I’m the market for something that will lower without having to be pried down away from the lifting point with so much force that I had to use my breaker bar.

Took it out for a spirited Sunday morning rural drive to remove any oil from the fuel. 
I've been working from home for a few months now and don't get the truck out very often. I think we both enjoyed it. I drove it in tow mode and used sport mode a lot with manual shifting (+/-) to get some rpm's and use the trans as it was designed.
I've been considering a pedal commander, and ordered one last week. It should be delivered this week, so I'll see how it feels on my next Sunday morning drive. ?
