Well, don't tell her about my wife's policy. Every dollar I spend on my 68 Cutlass and my 21 Tremor is equaled by a contribution to her jewelry fund. Your girlfriend is going to want a BIG ring. :LOL:

Your wife asked me to find out.

Happy Anniversary, Dave! So how much do you think this forum has cost you over these four years? ?

Okay, you got me curious, so I built out an F-250 King Ranch TREMOR (who knew that you could do this?!) with a 6.7L High Output Turbo Diesel with over 1,200 ft.-lbs of torque, all the towing bells and whistles, and a 12,000 pound winch. This bad boy can be built for $102,000, and frankly, dare...

That was an interesting video, but I would have been happier if he just explained the tests and spent more time covering the summary of the results and why one is better than another. Me trying to absorb the information:

This is exactly right. Tesla just reported Q2 profits of $2.51B on $23.33B in revenue as compared to Ford's Q1 profit of $1.8B on $41.5B in revenue. Ford won't report Q2 for a couple of weeks. Ford and GM are bloated compared to Tesla, and they better watch out for the new Chinese EV makers...

And this also makes the point I was trying to make. The clickbait writers wanted to paint Ford's price drop as not being able to compete with Tesla while Tesla dropped their prices shortly after LOSING $51B in market cap due to investors being unhappy about profitability yet NO ONE wrote...

Agreed. :)

You're right. Tesla lost $51B in market cap in one day. ;) Tesla Loses Equivalent Of Ford's Market Value In A Single ...Forbeshttps://www.forbes.com › sites › dereksaul › 2023/04/20

I read this thread from beginning to end, and I am not sure if it is about Ford selling EVs, the price of flat screen TVs or Taco Tuesday. As for the EV part, that article scores pretty high on the clickbait scale. Regardless of your opinion on EVs, any automaker would be foolish not to start...

I let my 6'4" son drive my Ranger for the first time on a short leg of our road trip. He did fine, but I spent the rest of the day constantly adjusting my driver's seat and mirrors until it felt right again.

Well, my 1983 Ranger was my grandfather’s. He drove it for 6 years and gave it to me when he bought a 1990 F150. In the first year I had it, it blew a head gasket on the highway with less than 30K miles on the odometer. It was out of warranty of course. A few months later, the transmission went...

Crush - 2010 Ranger Sport. I am sure it was a fine truck, though. Sell - 1983 Ranger XLT. This was the second vehicle and first truck I ever owned. While it might have sentimental value, it cannot compare to... Buy - 2023 Ranger Lariat. This is a truck I could live with for years and years.

Our forecast in Dallas is similar to Phoenix, AZ, except that we our heat index is supposed to be around 110 each day.

OH! That is good to know. I should definitely check the front wheel.

My 2021 Tremor has around 12K miles on it, and just this week, I started noticing a very slight clunk at times although not only when starting or stopping. I sense that it is coming from the driver's front wheel. I feel it through the steering wheel, which makes no sense to me since it is...

So here is what you need to do, Dave. First you need to invent a time machine to go back in time around 40 or 50 years. Then you need to grow up on the wrong side of the tracks somewhere where it is really hot and humid so that you have to sleep with your windows open at night since you are...

Don't beat yourself up, @TheAssuager. We all do stupid stuff. I know it sucks when a new vehicle gets a scratch or dent, but try to forgive yourself. I tell myself, "It's a truck. I do truck things with it. It is going to get dents and scratches."
