  1. Discount on RockAuto Parts!

    If you place an order with Rock, you just might get a magnet with my other Ford. I submitted some pictures of my car back in April and just got an e-mail last week that it was deemed 'magnet worthy' and they have printed a bunch to distribute with the orders. :sunglasses: Also sent me a batch...
  2. Towing WOW

    This video kind of sums up the place. BIL's family started going in early/mid 2000's and then skipped until 2012. Have been about 8 times with them since then. We had 10 in our group with 2 cabins this time, one cabin has 3 sets of bunks beds. It was a conservation lake until 2016 with all...
  3. Towing WOW

    "Don't leave us hanging, how was the fishing trip?" @Buckbull...trying not to hijack thread, but it was Canada, so fishing was good. It's a unique camp, drive forever, a boat picks you, portage to the camp on the other side. Only camp on the lake and it's in a CA Provincial Park. You've to...
  4. Towing WOW

    I just got back from a 1,900-mile Canadian fishing trip pulling a small U haul 5x8 single axle trailer. No brakes on this trailer. Mileage was about 18 until we started high tailing it home since we do the home trip in a single day. 16 hrs. drive time. No issues with the truck or trailer...
  5. Towing with my 2019 Ranger

    I bought my Ranger new (2019 XLT 4x4) and used it to tow my '69 Torino to the FCA club national meet this past summer. A bit over 1,100 miles round trip with no issues. Seemed to have plenty of power to haul it. It was mostly interstate driving with a few hundred miles of state road 2 &4...
  6. Preventing dust intrusion into bed?

    How about something like this that you can cut to fit as needed? You could put it in when on the dirt and remove when not needed so it wouldn't trap water. I have used it to seal up gaps on other projects.
  7. Ranger towing fuel mileage

    Yup. It's (mostly) not the weight. It is the air resistance/speed. I'd have to agree with this based on what others have posted and what I experienced towing my car on a trailer this summer. Wind resistance must be a BIG factor. NW Indiana to NE Tennessee for a car meet. Mostly flat...
  8. The PIC whore club! Come on in!

    Trailered the car on a 1125-mile trip for a car show. Truck ran great, no issues at all.
  9. What are you guys towing?

    Towed my car to a Fairlane Club national meet this past weekend in Kingsport TN. First time towing with the Ranger and performed well with no issues. It does have the tow package. Engine temp gauge barely made the halfway point in 85 degrees, though I wonder how trans temp was. Anyone know...
  10. Cactus Grey or Shelter Green Metallic

    I like Shelter Green Metallic, but I may be biased. :cool: It looks similar to "Black Jade" as Ford called it in '69. Same color was called Dark Metallic Green in '70. The light really makes a difference on these tones.
  11. AM remains.

    Thanks for the replies. Will call them and see how it goes
  12. AM remains.

    @AzScorpon...How do you get Sirius for $60/yr? I'm paying nearly that every quarter, tho prolly have too big of a channel package, I have a few channels that i like that required the 'full' . Any promo codes or something similar?
  13. What Made You Choose Your Car?

    Revisionist history :like: $1.500 in 1983 for my1st car, ~10x that for another one in 2015, though it has appreciated in the last 8 years :thumbsup:
  14. Looking for a thick Leather like Steering Wheel Cover

    but some thin wheels are just classic.... Agreed :)
  15. Are You and “In” or “Out” Guy…?

    Inside the 20 x 22, unless I have to angle park the old car to work on it
  16. What are you other toys?

    Unfortunately, only a 351W 2V. Hope to get a 4V intake/carb this summer. Was able to clean things up under the hood after I got it. My 1st Torino back in the 80's was a non-GT with a 390 4V that was a real 'sleeper'.
  17. AC only blows cold on Passenger Side

    Finally got some warm weather here, so kicked on AC driving home, but it's only blowing cold out the two passenger side vents (?), warm on the drivers side vents. Had temp set the same (~65) on both sides. It was doing it at lower fan speeds as well as Max AC. Moved up the pass side temp...
  18. Placement of E-ZPass Transponder

    I don't commute daily where it's needed that often, but when needed, I just set it in the tray on the dash, have had no issues with it getting read
  19. The PIC whore club! Come on in!

    Haven't been on much of late, but had posted these in the 'next to stuff' thread a while back. Any others here have old Fords?
