Got the brand new Tactilian license plate frames on today. Subtle and clean.

Super cool build yourself by the way! Just starting to read through your thread.

Haha thanks! No such thing!

Absolutely and not upset about it at all with how much I'm loving it.

I haven't taken it off since install. I imagine if you only did it every so often it would be annoying but not the end of the world (it's very well attached so it can handle offroading) but I would not want to do it all the time

Thanks! Galpin's great! And apparently Leitner is working on a new version of their new Forged bed rack that will accommodate a tonneau cover as well but nothing public yet. That would be great.

It's a flat food grade/food safe cutting board with the cupholders integrated on the side. No more tipped over bee....beverages on the tailgate. They invented it to actually make cleaning game or fileting fish easier while they were out doing that and it works for that and many other things as well.

That's fantastic! And let me know if it would help to have more pix or info that I have like the VIN on the truck, etc. I'm so excited to hear more about its history!

And then we met the team from Mountain Hatch who used our tailgate to create their new product for the Ranger. And finally some odds and ends and that leaves us where it sits this past week where the first post on this thread started. Lots more being worked on, lots more still coming, but...

Next, we ended up out at the JTree Cleanup in November of last year, my girlfriend took her on a girls' trip with Jillian from the Tacoma overlanding world, and one we did last trip to off-road near Vegas before the new suspension, wheels and tires went on and then immediately went out to the...

Then I did a little work on the Leitner box using GreyManTactical panels and picked up a ScanGauge to monitor some other parameters on the truck like trans fluid temp (also more to be revealed on that later) and took her out on another trip this time to Berdoo Canyon where we had a great time...

Next were the dust lights (all Baja Designs all the time) and the Factor55 Hitchlink. Then the really fun stuff started showing up like the SVC Offroad UCA's.

After that, the Bakflip came off, the Leitner Designs rack went on, and I was off to the races. Roofnest Eagle got picked up, tested around town and then taken on a first trip almost immediately up the coast to Half Moon Bay. Upon returning home, the GearPod XL went on and that's been a super...

Next came some lights! Fog replacements and a-pillar ditch lights were first up, then the Husky floor mats front and rear and those are such a great upgrade. I'm really happy with those because when you go offroading, they get gross and i can just take them out, hose them off, and put them back...

The weekend I picked her up, the first thing we did was throw a Bakflip MX4 on and take her on a trip to see our friends in Baja at Rancho La Bellota. Amazing people, go if you can and they're very overlander friendly (listed on iOverlander, etc and are very welcoming whether you're staying with...

Ok, so we started at the present, now let's go back to the past. I picked up my Ranger on April 8, 2019 after waiting for this spec to arrive (HPR, Lariat, FX4, basically everything they had at the time). I had waited for the Ranger's return rather than buying a Taco or anything else and I'm so...

Hi Phil! No problem, don't want to bother! I'd be happy to take this off this page, you can PM or email me ([email protected]). Until it gets taken down or moved, though I suppose we can keep it here too as you said. That would be amazing to see some of the stuff from the time, it's...

If you're further west or in the valley, I've always had good luck at Galpin Auto Sports. Ask for Tim, he'll treat you right and is a big truck/offroad guy himself.

Hi Phil! I know this is tangentially related to some stuff you've posted, but I see in your postings and history and it looks like you've got a ton of knowledge on the old Ford Baja programs. Would I be able to ask you a few questions about that? I've got a buddy who has one of the F350s from...

Thanks! It's a ton of fun and I'm just getting started. There's a lot of stuff I'm working on right now that I'll be able to show you guys soon, a fair bit of it focused on off-roading/overlanding/whatever the cool word is for it now.
