  1. $15.00 and hour?

    Love listening to the old farts talk about the good old days, back when it was a crime to be gay and outright racism took its last glorious lap around the track. At least kids called you 'sir!' Oh, and knew a thing or two about analog clocks, for Pete's sake! My office runs just fine with Gen X...
  2. Support group for those waiting for their Ranger MY22

    Ordered and received email confirmation from both Ford and my dealer on Mon, Mar 21st. 8 days have elapsed and no VIN emails. Seems like some got a VIN in a week, others, weeks or months. I'm just anxious to get that first step towards a rough estimate of build and delivery date. Could be...
  3. Bedrug - full bed ($$$$) vs floor/tailgate ($$)

    I await my crew cab. Bed is painted, no drop in or sprayed liner. I'll immediately get a canopy and use the truck bed for camping gear, hauling music equipment and less frequent home/yard items - most likely packaged/bagged. No loads of crushed gravel, ragged metal shards, etc. At minimum, I'd...
  4. Zeroing In on Canopy Topper. Function over Form.

    Just visited a dealer, Kanopy Kingdom in Milton, WA. Snugtop Rebel base price same as Century/Leer for equivalent shell, $2500. That surprised me. Snugtop has double gasket compared to single with Century. Snugtop’s opening front window has a true lower hinge where Century just pops out...
  5. RSI SmartCap - New Product!

    Just watched a bunch of longer term user reviews on YouTube. Running theme is that they leak in the connection seams, windows, hatches, latches and dust suppressing intake, most were unpleased for $4000. Different experiences here? I was sort of considering... not really due to price and wait...
  6. Zeroing In on Canopy Topper. Function over Form.

    @21VBRanger I ordered a Cactus Gray Super Crew XLT FX4. Do you like the Leer? Would you choose a different brand or features? Anything disappoint?
  7. Zeroing In on Canopy Topper. Function over Form.

    Because......? I know its stainless steel, requires assembly, has windoors. From cost to wait times, do you have a sense of why it pencils out over fiberglass brands?
  8. Zeroing In on Canopy Topper. Function over Form.

    Appreciate insights. Shopping for a 5' bed. I presume ARE and Snugtop are generally more expensive, but not necessarily leaps and bounds over Leer and Century (same I believe, different brand labels) in the quality department. I'm leaning Leer/Century. Maybe other brands but I'm unfamiliar. I'm...
  9. $15.00 and hour?

    The old man 'bootstrap puller' claims fall flat against empirical data. Average wages to living costs ratio was empirically better when Boomers came of age. The State subsidized more of the public college costs, and was therefore cheaper. Minimum wage, if adjusted for inflation is over $20...
  10. Ford Ranger Cactus Grey Lariat Tremor - color opinion

    If I didn't know the Ford assigned name for it, I'd have described it as concrete with green tint. 'Cactus' makes sense as a pairing to Gray, to account for and suggest the green. I just ordered a Cactus ranger. At first, I wasn't so sure but it quickly grew on me. Granted, I'm going to get a...
  11. 1980 quality cars?

    Born in mid 70's and grew up understanding American cars were inferior, the smart buy was Japanese. My parents were never satisfied with their vehicles until they bought their first new one, a 1986 Honda Accord. That car was flawless, utterly reliable and its clutch survived two teenage drivers...
  12. What is everyone paying for their 5th Gen Ranger?

    Just ordered through 'Awesome Ford' of Chehalis, WA: Cactus Gray Super Crew XLT FX4, 301a, Tow Package. $1000 custom order discount, $2000 Ford financing rebate (pending, available), $500 first responder discount. Out the door price, including tax and license and presuming Ford financing is...
  13. First Post - Changing Inventory and Pricing Trends?

    Right, that is a consideration, going steel wheels no skids and getting that after.. if aftermarket pencils out.
  14. First Post - Changing Inventory and Pricing Trends?

    Ha! Meant Cactus, not Coyote, not sure why my brain told my fingers that! Edited, thanks! Tremor is more than I want to spend. I'm really hoping to get into something at or under $40,000. That may or may not be rational right this moment, but that is my aim, and to drive off the lot with 4...
  15. First Post - Changing Inventory and Pricing Trends?

    Hey, I'm new. Nice forum, I've spent many hours on it already! Longtime Subaru adventurer, want a proper 4x4. My question - Is a tide turning on inventory and strict MSRP pricing? Easing of supply chain, high gas prices, looming interest rate increases slowing customer demand while inventory...
