This is the best mpg that the truck has had since being leveled and I switched to running 89 octane in it.
As far as the milage on the truck itself goes. I used Mike Finnegan's ROADKILL mathematics and rounded up. She's on the way to 114,000 miles lol.
I have done this same thing before on the way home from Bonham. Especially if I don't have to work. From Bonham to the house is 20 ish miles, however if I take FM 1396 through Lamasco and then turn onto FM 273 through Telephone, I can turn a 20 mile drive into roughly a 40 mile drive lol.
You're right!
You also made me think of something that Ron White said on the Blue Collar Comedy Tour movie.
Slow the bullet down to 55 mph, put a pair of headlights and a little horn on it, and the deer will practically jump in front of the bullet lol!😆
That would be Poetic Justice, in which sometimes is the best kind of justice.
At least it can be the funniest if you look at it from a really odd, warped angle lol.
Welcome to the Party Jonny!
Very cool looking Ranger, even after the recent Texas ice and snow storm.
Your truck is Way cleaner than mine is lol!
Have Fun!
Enjoy the forum and your truck!
Imo, just be sure to keep up with the maintenance of it, drive it, enjoy it and if you decide to build it up a little. Do it in your own unique style. Mine is about due for its next 5,000 mile service interval at Quick Lane.
I like it, and I would drive it. One like that in velocity blue with 4wd and a towing package is what I'm looking at as a replacement for the current truck. After I've gotten the good out of this one first lol.
Drove to work, stopped by the gas station across from Brookshires and topped off the truck with 89, then I went to Brookshires and did a little grocery shopping.
Haha! Okay, after most of this mess melted.
My truck is two toned.😆
It'll wash, the weather warms up enough, give it an ftb and then it will be good enough.
In accordance to what I learned from when I worked in an auto body shop right out high school. That there is now permanently embedded into the paint. 🤦♂️
Poor car.
