  1. How long to allow someone else to drive your Ranger

    Its hard to describe haha, he was a good friend for a long time and I like to think that maybe it was just extremely bad luck, and being that he didnt openly admit to driving it hard I cant really go too far with it. He did pay for the $500 tow bill to get it back to town so thats why I strongly...
  2. How long to allow someone else to drive your Ranger

    Whenever my wife and I go somewhere, its usually a race to see who can get to the drivers seat first. If she works earlier then me, its not uncommon to go outside and find that she has left her car for me to drive to work :LOL: . Story time, I owned a 2012 Tundra TRD offroad with a few expensive...
  3. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    I finally (almost) finished my FX4 build and took it out for a drive along the lake to get to some mountain bike trails. Tommorow I will take it up Kootenay Pass to go snowboard in some fresh powder!
  4. Just picked up the Cactus Lariat with Black Appearance. This thing is sharp.

    Sweet truck! absolutely love that color, congratulations. Now go find every excuse in the book to take it out for a drive.
  5. My 2020 FX4 overland and multi-purpose build

    Just thought id show off my version of an overland and multi-purpose build I did to my 2020 FX4 supercab. I ordered alot of add-ons when I bought the truck in October and they finally showed up last week. My additions after purchase from dealer have been 3" BDS lift, 31" Duratrac tires, Leer...
  6. Spare tire?

    No I have not yet, I actually completely forgot about it. Thanks for making me need to spend another $500 though:crackup: . Definitely worth the investment if you ever need it, and you will most likely need it in an inconvenient situation.
  7. so what is this "rear locker" thing for?

    Rear locker is for any situation that momentum is king. In my last truck ('12 TRD Tundra), there was no locker, only LSD. I cant tell you how disheartening it is to be in 4wd, trying to keep momentum to make it up steep hills off-road in the snow just to feel the power being robbed from...
  8. Rangers in SNOW

    That is a sweet old ranger! For sure, with tires you have to go with what makes sense for your average driving conditions. What I personally like about the Duratrac is that I can run them year round and they do great in mud as well as snow. They are overkill for alot of summer driving but I tend...
  9. Rangers in SNOW

    I've had many opportunities to drive my '20 Ranger in the snow so far this winter around the Nelson, BC area. I use it in the winter as a home base for ski touring (actually splitboarding) and it will be used in the summer for mountain biking. I've had the chance to drive it in anything like the...
  10. Buying a 2021 Lariat Supercrew FX4.... Good deal?

    Wow, that is a beautiful colour! Every time I read posts on here and what you guys down in the states pay for the rangers, it make my cry in canadian a little bit each time. If they offered the same pricing in CAD, id buy two of them! Back to the point, that is a beautiful truck!
  11. Rats in the engine bay

    Just wanted to add that I can attest to Porcupines loving brake lines...Woke up at 2am this past summer while camping near a place in BC called Retallack, constant "scraping" sound coming from underneath a friends truck...Turns out it was a rather large porcupine sitting on the frame of the...
  12. "True North" Build

    I think i need to order the exact same rims as you have after looking at your truck...
  13. What to do during LOCK Down

    nice detective work! My Sasquatch air freshener has been with me for over 10 years, i will never let that go! When I lived in Ontario I grew a massive beard and my friends all called me "Squatchy" and i was gifted that air freshener, no matter were i go he (or she?) always seems to fit into the...
  14. What to do during LOCK Down

    Hey RangerVA, i absolutely love your rig. Seems like you use it to get out camping, any recommendations on anything that makes it just a little bit more enjoyable that most people forget about? after reviewing yours, I realized I need to order an awning. It looks like I will be able to mount one...
  15. What to do during LOCK Down

    It really is beautiful, I went to college in Ottawa and then started my career in Barrie, Ontario and I think alot of people underestimate the beauty that Ontario and Quebec hold as well. Some of my fondest memories have been driving through Algonquin Park in the fall or spending a summer...
  16. What to do during LOCK Down

    Haha good question! I was actually the one standing on the side of the road while my brother drove, and this was right around the corner from the parking area we skied from that day and I managed to get it first shot. I am actually going to be doing a little bit of photography of the ranger for...
  17. What to do during LOCK Down

    Really sorry to hear what you and your family are going through. That must be really tough. It seems that most people are starting to take the measures much more seriously (around here at least) and I am fortunate that my brother lives with me and is also my best backcountry skiing partner, and...
  18. What to do during LOCK Down

    Thanks for the recommendation! just checked out your build as well as RangerVA, both beautiful! I am glad I stumbled across this forum as I feel i am all alone with the Ranger in a world of Tacomas up here haha
  19. What to do during LOCK Down

    If I can make a recommendation for your future trip through BC to Alaska, I would recommend trying to cross the border near Creston BC, over Kootenay Pass into Nelson and through Nelson to Highway 6 up the Slocan Valley to Revelstoke. Highway 6 is extremely beautiful and the bonus is you get a...
