Will take off tomorrow morning bright and early. 400 miles to pick up a vargo van and 400 miles back home. Will be a heavy tow pics to come.

And put a huge dent on the tailgate. Backing up to a tree, backing up in a narro spot inbetween some trailers, tree in the camera, butttttttt...... it had a big branch and it bit me! ?

Dents add character. You just need a story to go with it. Let me assist.
You were face to face with a bull while in the Ranger. The bull started charging and you pulled a Rockford to avoid the bull but he still managed to tag the tailgate before you got away. :like:

With the known thickness of the metal on our Rangers, I'd go with the story that a 5 year old threw a marshmallow at you !!!

Ohhh, so close but you're both wrong. :facepalm:

His 6 year old pulled the handle and his tailgate crashed down on his head causing the dent. :oops: Hence the urgency for a DeeZee Damper!:captain::ninja:

Corporate drone. Dilbert's world is alive & well.
Might have been nearly enough to charge the battery. Working from home and with the dump only being 1.6 miles away, ole Soupie never gets a chance to fully charge. The CTEK is on it more than I am!

I'm seriously considering disconnecting the BMS from all the topics here about it (still haven't tried FORSCAN to set charging to 90%).

So my big thrill of a drive was 12 miles each way on the highway to go see the doctor.

LOL, it was more exciting driving in sport mode and going above 25 mph!

But I "represented" for Rangers and the Chain Fitters Guild. =D

Weren't you afraid to park your Ranger that close to that Accordthingy. Some of that nastiness might be contagious.

Thanks brother! It's not until Thursday and yes, Annie is taking me to the Mexican restaurant here that we discovered last year while looking for lots.

Drove up into Smokey Mountain National Park near the house to do some fly fishing for native Appalachian Brook Trout.

Had not fished the park in 5 years because of crowds. Forgot how beautiful this creek was. Hiked in 3 miles from trail head to avoid most people.
