I really donāt have anything exciting or informative to contribute to this thread; but I havenāt posted in weeks and Iām tired of riding the bench.
Anyway, after sitting idle while we were on vacation I could tell the Ranger was also feeling a bit antsy and wanting to get back in the gameā¦so I...
I just kinda glanced through the responses, but wanted to let the OP know I had the same issue with a 2020 Explorer Platinum I bought before the Ranger. Three white door handles with chrome insertsā¦ā¦one white handle with a black insert. Had several other QC related issues with that vehicle that...
I found the ādesign your ownā template to be a bit confusingā¦.so I just emailed the company, told them exactly what I wanted and they emailed me a summary/quote the same day...
Received and installed a new tailgate oval and camera housing, which was the only chrome/blue on the exterior of the truck (with the exception of the exhaust tips). Always bugged me a bit.
I went with Magnetic for the housing and surround to match my flares, bumpers etcā¦.Cactus Gray and matte...
Will do!
Turn around was like 38 days, so I donāt recall the exact price but Iāll check later this afternoon. Honestly though, it wasnāt a whole lot more than what everyone else is charging for the ones out there. As I recall it was about a $50 up charge, which I didnāt feel was...
One of the last pieces to the exterior puzzle arrived this morning. Went with a custom job from a great seller on Etsy to get rid of the only chrome and blue on the truckā¦.always seemed so out of place to me.
I chose Magnetic for the housing and surround to match my flares, bumpers etc. Cactus...
Lol, RP hit the nail on the head. That pic made it look a bit like one of the ācustomizedā golf carts you see down here in Floridaā¦..only 100 times better. If I had a golf cart like that Iād rip up the course. They kinda frown on trucks wheelinā on the fairways, bunkers and sand traps.
If I...
Geez, Iād buy that in a heartbeat.
I donāt play anymore ācause I flat out suck, but Iād toss my old clubs in the bed and happily take a 176 on the scorecard just to rip around the golf course for nine holes. Yep, just nine. Pretty sure the course marshal would toss my ass before I got to the...
Lol, like I saidā¦.well-managed these days. There was a time not long ago when having that pointed out wouldāve sent me straightā¦.
Wait, hold on just a minuteā¦.
Ok, Iām back. Where was I? Oh, yeahā¦there was a timeā¦.
Oh eff it. Ok, so itās kinda well managed.
Damn, now I gotta go retake the...
Apologies up front for whatās sure to be an excessively long wall of text and pics.
I havenāt posted in a while, and Iām honestly not even sure where I left off in trying to wrap up my exterior mods. Hit a few snags with delivery and install delaysā¦.but Iāve finally wrapped everything up, at...
Down here the garage and lanai are considered āout of boundsā, so what we do is tape a trail of $5 & $10 bills to the floorā¦ā¦..leading just under the door and into the house.
Bahaha
OCD (clinically diagnosed, well managed)ā¦.so making sure my vehicle fits comfortably in our 3-car garage is a prerequisite to purchase. Because of the built-in cabinetry, workbench, etc the Ranger just barely fits lengthwise. I actually had to ātest driveā the garage fit before closing the deal...
Jim, congrats on the new Ranger!
Iām fairly new to theses forums, but I have to imagine protocol is similar to the other āenthusiastā forums I belong to, so let me be the first to askā¦ā¦
Where the heck are the pics??!?!
Lol, welcomeā¦..and enjoy!
Not sure what all the fuss is about. I guess nobodyās seen me get on the interstate at rush hour?
I should really see if the judge will release my video. That grumpy-ass prosecutor dude kept playing it over and overā¦..so I know he thought it was like totally super cool.
Wait, would I get the...
Not today, but I had my Alpharex Novas installed yesterday and had the pleasure of getting them properly aimed last evening in the rain.
It was fun; me, a 30ā tape, a Phillips head screwdriver and a roll of painterās tape behind the local grocery store as the chilly rain came down. Two cars...
If itās any consolation, my light came on the second time I sprayed my windshield. Bone dry after that.
Iāll be honest; Iām sure itās an easy thing to overlook/forget when theyāre prepping a vehicleā¦.but it made me nervous about what else they may have missed, forgotten or simply skimped on. I...
That video is pretty much what I was looking for (but wasnāt able to find).
Thanks for posting it.
On the other hand, Iām now armed with just enough confidence and YouTube knowledge to do some serious effinā damage. Soā¦ā¦ā¦..crap.
Looks like this fight may not be over just yet, thereās a...
