And just as I mention working in the steel industry, this is just the first domino to fall...taking care of their brothers? No strike fund for those poor USW guys, and they have it MUCH harder than the auto workers, I know, I worked in the blast furnace with some great, hard working sum...
Not a fan of strikes, or unions. Bad experiences with both in the steel industry. But looking for a silver lining! ? Getting emails from Ford that this is Ford Truck Month...and with the strike, obviously production will be hampered, from the already measley '24 Ranger production to-date at MAP...
I had to work in Lancaster, PA yesterday, about 1 1/2 hours away, and knew I'd be heading home about the time my weather radar app showed orange, and hail. I was lucky, and Pepper stayed ahead of the front all the way...so I didn't have to hide under a bridge! Actually didn't see any bad...
Welcome fellow PennsylvanianRangerOwner (Exit 74 PA TPK). Nice Escape, tho, my wife is on her 3rd, a '21. And Nice Tremor! I always wanted one, so I could change 1 letter in the decal to make my name on the side! But my '19 XLT will be swapped out soon, I hope, for a '24, and darn, they are...
I'll probably trade Pepper if the price is right, otherwise private sell, but it's hard to beat the 6% PA sales tax difference, close to $2k! I debated ordering a Raptor, I could have been the 1 per dealer guy, but I don't wanna offroad in a $55k minimum truck. I'm happy with the engine /trans...
Thank you Dave...my 4th Ranger but first ever forum, at 71! Lots of fun but good info, and I bought a lot of stuff for Pepper and regret nothing. My 6g, Olaf (guess the color) will be in production wk of 9/18, some of my doo-dads will be swapped over, some can't. BTW the 6g forum is way...
Joining the "do with" and "Alf" themes...
Everywhere I go with Pepper, these guys go along. Froggy and Turtle have watched over my speedometer on all my trucks. They came from my daughter's Ford Probe when I sold it. She's still mad at me for selling it but she was in college and never drove it...
Wow, so those are your temps, Phil? Thought you might be in the 100's, and with that, was wondering how Tito takes to the heat, or does he prefer the A/C! ?
A buddy of mine told me about a wild pig hunt he was on in Alabama. ? He said they gave him a knife about this size and told him to stick it when the dogs cornered one. He laughed, but the guide was serious and said that's all you need, just get it in the heart!❤️
