What did you receive in the mail today for your Ranger?

Got a big box of rodent bedding in the mail today…

Rodents got to my hood insulation a while back - they also took out a wiring harness, which I repaired at the time.

I finally got tired of looking at the messy insulation pad and ordered a new one. Yep - spendy. It arrived this morning, so I wasted no time in spraying it down with rodent repellent and installing it.

Here’s the before and after…

Where's the light kit for it?
Shipped separately?

It's inside the pan...the lighting travels through sensors, up through the OBD port and lights up my iPod...Bud Lite Gauge!

!00% for Soupie but not on Soupie. In fact, Soupie will be on this latest "mod".

made in Houston FTW! =)

install right over the grass with "X" up for use as "grass pavers"

just smash it into soaked lawn with a Nervous Turtle (vibratory plate) - theoretically!

Here's a follow up. This stuff was a PIA but a water-filled lawn roller got it done (and I was done too!).

Several grass seedings and lots of water an it came out pretty good. I'm happy with it and will us it much more for Soupie in the winter. Right now the boat's on it, but that'll go to the backyard once the ground freezes.

As it is now ...

How it was laid out, before lawn roller.

After lawn roller and first grass seeding ...

He has no idea. They were a good deal so he bought them!

Since our truck beds are so high my ramps are steep too. Used mostly for snowblower but SIL has used them for riding mower as well.

Mine fold in half so I guess not as steep.


Found one

That looks great, but the fact that the grass grows through it would make it a no-go up here. Generally speaking, parking on grass is prohibited all over Ontario, although it is a municipally-regulated matter and so might be permissible in some smaller/more rural areas.

Calice, as a fellow Canadian living in Portsmouth, that sucks! Zut alors! =(

So tête carrées would rather have gravel, or a non-permeable option instead of grass pavers?

That really blows (I say that as a Quebec frog). =D
