Don’t listen to him Al. Remember, they’re new and just don’t know any better.

My exact thoughts. Low information Ranger owners. They can't even get the spelling right on their goofy t-shirts.

Actually quite the opposite. @bmidd did his homework and realized where the Kool Kids hung out. Hint...It's not with all you strong armed guys. Chicks really dig this look! ?

Bought a scangauge. Had an original one years ago, recently found out they do boost and trans temp. I was so close to getting some auto meter gauges too.

Cause I'm too lazy to look into it
Does this connect to the OBD port and/or the basic hard-wire to fuse location?


Nissan uses the worst "gauges" for the oil psi/temp and trans temp/battery volt... Pretty sure they don't actually record true readings.

OBD port. I had one on my obs powerstroke before they had all these extra gauges. Its not perfect but there isnt an A pillar gauge pod that looks clean.

That thing is pretty nifty and clever!

I have two projects this summer involving a few truck loads of dirt.

But I was gonna have a few dump truck loads and then shovel into a wheelbarrow. Talk about bad for my terrible shoulders. Even though this option would mean several trips with Soupie, it sure would be more fun and a lot easier on the shoulders.

Now you've got me thinking of what kind of side hustles I could do with that $9K thing!

LOL, a quick google got this:
Partner with landscaping companies or garden centers to deliver mulch, soil, gravel, or plants to their customers.

Alright, who here needs some Soupie-delivered goodies? =p

Think of it as charity since I have a dump addiction, help me wean myself off of trash! =D

I see it less as weaning you off trash and more as moving you over to the hard stuff - gravel.

David, maybe it’s time…

Drove my Ranger to the coin-op car wash and blasted all the road grime and salt off after a couple of weeks of almost daily snow and a 300 km trip a bit north.

Pulled into my garage with water drops frozen to the truck, turned the heat up to 65° F, got Mrs. DukeCanBuildit her lunch, and headed to the garage to get after things with some 303 Graphene Detailer (all out of 404 at the moment ;)) and some Aero Cosmetics Rubber Care - in a t-shirt - in February - in Canada.

Man, I love having a big heated garage again!
