Out of curiosity what was the $/per gal of fuel used?
Because California right now in the SF Bay Area is still north of $5 for 91…
So for me even 1 mpg better makes the ROI even more..

(These prices are for 87 add .15 for 89 and roughly .25-.35 for 91.)
Oh nice gas is down about 10 cents since I got gas on Sunday.

soo that’s why I am curious as to the fuel price that was used..
The math was for $4.05/gallon (91 in Vegas). This week it went up to like $4.30 or so, maybe switched to summer blend. Man, Utah prices make me jealous when we travel there. We were there two weeks ago and it was something like $3.60 for 91.

I assume at best 1mpg but maybe more if the factory BOV is bleeding off pressure, which I suppose can be the case on a vehicle a few years old.

Its like how a certain brand of spark plug can claim 5% mpg increase. Then in fine print states on vehicles with more than 100k on factory plugs lol. They are not wrong but they are. The oem bov could be a weak spot over time.

I need that show to return immediately! Anyone who hasn’t seen it, you must see it! You can thank me for that gem, if you haven’t yet!

I accept gratitude in the form of mods:
- Inner cooler and charge pipe
- Then I’m ready for the Livernois tune
Ok, not to be an ass, but I can't sit back and let you continue to call it inner cooler. It's intercooler. "No intense offended." - Archie Bunker

THANK YOU!!!!!!! ? ??. No, you said that with awesome intentions and I am now a little mortified, wondering just how many times I did that because I know it’s a lot!

I would say that not only were you certainly not an ass, but instead, being compassionate! Perfectly executed constructive feedback! You could give a seminar on how to strike the perfect tone and keep it light!

Now this is a joke but: damn everyone else who noticed and didn’t say anything??

For me, the only thing worse than getting it wrong is CONTINUE to do it! and do it over and over!

I hope everybody will correct me if I systematically do something like that;
help me from being a flat out fool, and instead just being the fool I am, but hopefully more on a one off basis!

Thanks again by the way!!!

I hate correcting people, never know how they will take it. And I won't do it over piddly shit. (One that people constantly get wrong is saying the Ranger has front struts.) Anyhoo, THIS response was awesome! Cheers!

Well, crud ... since @got3fords is our official good speller, maybe you can settle this one:

damper versus dampener

Regardless of which one is approved, we all know that those lucky enough to have one have more HP, stronger babe magnetism, and a simply soupierior Ranger! =p

? I knew this was a great group of people! I love the cartoon and just everything in general now that it’s turned into a witty, but good humor thread!

It’s actually pretty impressive because that was absolutely a complete 180 from where we were at one point.

All right I’m not gonna say any more sentimental stuff and become known as the psychology/sentimental guy and hopefully I’m not too late ?

I’ll have to take a look into that conundrum of a spelling that you’ve just brought up :)

that being said, I’m sure there are much better people for it. Given that it has turned into such a bizarrely funny subject to add that part.

I mean I’ll admit, I thought I was pretty clever grabbing that right away and I think I said it before, but it stood out because as the woman is showing me the truck for the purchase, she opens the tailgate as if it has one and will ease on down, but instead it just flopped down with a loud thud!! I didn’t say anything but I thought it was absolutely classic… Whoops on her part

I would love to know the origin behind the joke. Was it something to do with people always mentioning it or thinking they had come up with the next best thing to slice bread? I mean I sort of had that feeling but I kept it to myself and I will definitely say thankfully!

The damper controversy goes way back to early days on this forum. You were either pro or anti damper and DeeZee came out with one. I was agnostic but won one from @AzScorpion during an early on giveaway and am happy with it. It is SLOW during our cold winter here though.

Don’t forget about the cold water cooler.?
OMG I freaking love it! Now I have to add one. I’m certainly guilty, myself ! (I’m sorry, I couldn’t help it) :)

Just for pointing that out, you both deserve a FREE GIFT!

Not sure you should listen to me. =D

I mean I've added about $6K in mods to a base XL and I think this is the best one:
