Wojooo! Probably growing up in a nation with elevation variation from -5' to +10' above sea level has something to do with that!

There were definitely some certain-death drop-offs on that roadway. Okay, they were almost exclusively certain-death drops.
It probably has something to do with that indeed. The funny thing is, as a kid I visited the Alps several times much problem (or so I was told, I can't remember a thing of that haha), but there was also a point in time where I, as a kid, fell on my head and had a crack in my skull, and after it was healed and examined, they left me alone on the examination table and I fell again (lol no kidding). I don't know when it started but I'm assuming after that. Another reason I could think of, since fear of height has a lot to do with vision and keeping in balance, is that I only have a single good eye and may have an issue with depth perception rather than the heights itself.

Not sure what it is, but either way, I do hate that I have it and have a risk of panic attacks (I've had them a few times, and it makes it incredibly dangerous for me to drive). I actually really love the sight of those mountains, it's probably the thing I'll regret most in life, the avoidance and taking the beauty of it all in myself.

That is a 1965 falcon that has a Cleveland 351 and is set up for autocross. It sounds so good

My brother (a mod here I think) pointed me to a thread here: https://ohptools.com/blogs/news/how...ire-calculator-and-configure-it-using-forscan

And after I bought the forscan tool and he and I used my laptop. Its within 1/2 MPH now, it also affects (and fixes) MPG and odometer. It would be nice to leave the odometer, since it would show less miles, but the speedo being 3 1/2 mph off, I can't handle.
That would be me (his brother) - We got it to work, but it throws a code (I can't remember what code it is) - no CEL but if you clear the code it comes back. It doesn't seem to hurt anything, but it was kind of weird. It seems to work fine, however.

I was never a fan of the Saber colour, but the more photos I see the more I think I should have considered it when I bought my truck!

There was an article about 18 months ago when they said the Ranger was coming back to N'America and it showed it in Saber. I liked the color from the first time I saw it. We were in Durango CO for July 4th and I was getting gas (still had my Tacoma) and the lady in front of me had a brand new Ranger in Saber. Talked with her for almost an hour and she couldn't stop raving about how much she loved her truck. Well 3 weeks later I had mine. Now I know why she was smiling so much.:D
