Due to several incidents of Operator Error, I wanted/needed to replace the front license place holder on the Ranger. It was something like $35 and took ten minutes to do. Afterwards, I asked the Princess, “How does my new license plate holder look”? Without missing a beat she simply replies...

Thats why the tote full of gear that lives in the bed, that helps mitigate the rake, also sits on the passenger side of the truck! ;)

Looks like we're always going downhill!

If that were my case, don't think I would drive a truck.

No it doesn't. For each his own.

It is often a thin line between bravery and stupidity!

I am notorious for pushing the limits on my gas tank and have run out of fuel in some spectacular places! I like to know my limits. How low can you go? What does the display show when you reach zero? How much fuel can the tank actually hold? Display shows 2 miles to empty, gas pump shut off at...

With out pictures, your Ranger didn’t happen.

Nothing I consider particularly dumb, but it’s taken me over a few of the high mountain passes in the area. If you find a black/black one on the trail somewhere, let me know!

I’m guessing the fasteners pulled out on the front ones. The backing plates were still there but the flaps were never seen again. The rear one was still attached to the backing plate but it had pulled and popped off the bracket at the bottom.

It’s not really worth me taking a picture, there is only one left attached. Put the XL’s on and liked the look, may have helped reduce some of the rocks flying off the Grabbers. But it didn’t take much off-roading to rip them off. I can’t recommend them if you go 4-wheeling much.

NOOOO! Don't center the subject in your pics, unless it's a headshot/portrait sort of thing. Remember the "Rule of Thirds", creates visual interest and trailing lines! And yes, Cactus Gray for the win!!!

I didn’t know it at the time…but I do whatever Phil does! He knows all the secrets and still bought one.

When I bought my first Ranger, a ‘99 4x4 SCAB, I really wanted that great looking, awesome Tacoma. But couldn’t afford it. I loved that Ranger and drove the crap out of it for ten years and 190k miles. Then I bought a 2012 Nissan Frontier. Same story, I really wanted the Toyota but didn’t have...

And once again, Phil for the win!

You don't go off-road, others do. Seems like you just answered your own question. My question is, if you don't go off-raod and you're on a tight budget, why cough up the cash for 4x4? Just a few months of snowy pavement? Hardly worth it. This truck in 2WD with some good snow tires and a little...

So, is your truck lifted?

The Ranger definitely wins on comfort and aesthetics compared to our version of the Hilux. And the Ranger out performs and is more capable. I don’t believe our trucks have the same transmission, but those shifting problems are similar to some Rangers around here. Mine has been great so far...

Welcome to the forum, Mike. Your English is better then most of the Americans I deal with on a daily basis. I can’t wait to visit your beautiful country some day. Help us out, what problems have you read about and where did you read them? With all the negative input you’re getting why are you...
