  2. What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

    Hi Larry, Not in the bed...in the passenger footwell. Delayed reaction...Tito was in the house in the Great room by our partnership desk on Margie's side. We have tile floors....
  3. What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

    I loaded my Tortoise and wife into the Ranger and headed to the recycle transfer station to drop off oil from changing the Ranger's oil. Then to Big O tire to pick up the RV tire that I ordered so I would have a new spare after facing a blowout on the RV last October and stuck on the side of...
  4. Fun times dissecting a radiator

    Hi Chris, Wind tunnel testing with instrumentation would show you when thicker and or fin density collide. Aftermarket likely can't test in a windtunnel....too expensive. best, Phil
  5. Beautiful Pictures

    Yeah...we have done that deal with the robbery. we viewed this as just part of the deal.. We hoped the train ride showcased the Grand Canyon... It does no...just scrub pines etc. I do not wish to repeat this but for kids, it is cool...
  6. Close Encounters of the Rattlesnake Kind

    Our day started as usual for being retired... Up, cup of coffee, argue with the computer to check emails etc and plan on the time we should go on our 2.0 mile walk to keep our tired old bodies moving. So normal until we made our way to our pathway where things changed big time. There was a...

    Hi Steve, Actually, something like this...walking Tito every day...about 1 mile walk for him...slow walk for sure!
  8. Ford’s Recall Problem Is Getting Too Big to Ignore

    I saw this coming when I retired in 2002. The push to go faster meant short cut proveout. I am amazed Farley is still CEO. The buck stops at Farley's desk. Sad time for Ford with the Black Eyes they are getting with all these recalls. OEM suppliers are slipping. Where is Ford SQA...

  12. Rear leaf spring issues?

    Spring splay as you are experiencing is common with aftermarket springs but is also present in OEM.. You have nothing out of normal and should not worry about the slight splay your springs show. I have seen this many times on many vehicles, but there are aftermarket offerings that I have seen...
  13. 5 Daily Habits DESTROYING Your 10-Speed Transmission

    If folks knew what this transmission went through with the extreme testing that Ford does, you would be astounded in my opinion. However, what this video indicates you should do certainly won't hurt except for the 150,000 mile fluid change. If you change as the video suggests, you are probably...
  14. Fun Fuel Tank Project

    Hi Chris, I think you are facing a manufacturer of the tank's belt and suspenders and a rope in a pocket in case both fail. Since I have no clue how the fuel pickup is installed or located, I would make sure to keep the Ford pickup "sock" in place as it would probably stop any residual...
  15. The PIC whore club! Come on in!

    Yeah, Margie and I do not go to Manuels as it was poor service and it is so loud in the winter. There is another place we go that is a Beer and Burger place called The Garage...used to be Coaches..Sports bar but burgers are good, and Margie has a favorite quesadilla offering.

    Hi Dave, You are on! And, okay cat is out of the bag...Dave and Annie came over to our house in Green Valley for the first time we had ever met each other through many years of posting, It was a great outing that lasted well beyond the standard 3 hours. And No, I did not buy any 303...

  18. The PIC whore club! Come on in!

    I have been to the top of the peak. There is a solid rock wall about 20 ft high that has toe holes and chains that you have to pull yourself up. Margie waited for me to return a couple hours later. The solid rock wall is the first thing you encounter on the climb. View from the top is great!
