  1. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    Yesterday I drove up to Paulette Peak in La Pine, OR. Saw another Ranger at the top.
  2. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    Installed an underbody camera this evening. Kinda cool. May need to tweak the location a bit but I’ll test it out this weekend at the overland rally.
  3. Bashell's way too early 2023 Tremor build

    I don’t know of many vehicles that can take a side impact at 40 MPH and not come out worse for wear. I immediately started looking for a replacement because of how well it took care of my wife in the crash.
  4. Bashell's way too early 2023 Tremor build

    Took her our this weekend. Fun times!
  5. Bashell's way too early 2023 Tremor build

    Some lady ran a stop sign at like 40+ miles per hour and totaled it. Thread here.
  6. Bashell's way too early 2023 Tremor build

    Yeah, It's more of a "do it cause it's cool" thing. Not really "do it cause it makes sense." I've already got a tiny Jackery, and I could always do something like that instead. That was my original plan, but then I figured "Why not?" I just found a giant slimline 100 Ah battery for a reasonable...
  7. Mileage When Ordered Truck Arrived

    First Ranger was 7. Second was 13.
  8. Bashell's way too early 2023 Tremor build

    I haven't updated this in too long! After getting my replacement Tremor (I may be the only person ever who can say they've owned 2 Azure Gray 5g Tremors) I went whole hog into kitting it out. Just got the xCover installed today. I'll take it out for a test camp this weekend then I'll be at the...
  9. Ford Tie Down Hook -Talk about price gouging....

    I ordered these three weeks ago. Still haven't even received a tracking number... https://www.levittownfordparts.com/sku/rangerbedhookkit.html
  10. Azure Gray Club

    That's the same spec as my second Tremor. First one was a 302 with tow package and bed utility package and the replacement truck was 301 with tow package and remote start. The things that the 301 is missing that my 302 had are: - tiny rear window - power heated seats - heated side view mirrors...
  11. Azure Gray Club

    Taking the train to pick up my new truck. I may be the only person to ever have owned 2 Azure Gray Tremors.
  12. Why didn't Ford do something like this?

    I like the Frontier, but Rangers and Tacomas have the best aftermarket options. (Bumpers, toppers, light bars, lifts, suspension, etc.)
  13. Ugh! My baby!

    That was satisfying
  14. Ugh! My baby!

    Who wants an update??? I spent the week hemming and hawing: - Do I want to wait for a 2024 Ranger? - Do I want to get a 2023 Colorado instead? - Do I want to go with something completely different? - Am I willing to get a Tremor that's not Azure Gray? - What about options? What can/can't I...
  15. Ugh! My baby!

    I mean, I’m half glad that it got totaled. A repair of that magnitude would take months with the parts and labor shortages and likely will never be the same. If someone repairs it, it’ll have a salvage title and likely many minor issues that’ll never go away.
  16. Ugh! My baby!

    that sounds like a good option
  17. Ugh! My baby!

    I’ve purchased from them before. Cool dealership, but I really want another Tremor. Preferably AGM, Cactus, or Red Pepper. I might fly somewhere and drive it home if I can find the right price. I’ve done that before and it’s pretty enjoyable, but I’m certainly not flying 800 miles to pay...
  18. Ugh! My baby!

    Thanks. It’s actually really nice to read that. Venting moment incoming… It’s been a really rough year. In January, I was laid off from Google after working there for over 10 years. In February, my youngest child spent multiple days in the ICU at Seattle Children’s after a severe asthma...
  19. Ugh! My baby!

    I paid $46k plus tax and licensing. Insurance company offered $52k so… yeah, but I can really only get that price if I ordered direct again.
  20. Ugh! My baby!

    Under 20k miles? I’m not entirely sure. I know I don’t want to wait 4 months to order another truck from the factory, and I don’t particularly want to spend more than I did for my “perfectly specced out truck”.
