  1. Not an electronic genius

    This is for the electronic minded. Basic stuff is ok, but when it comes to all of this computerized stuff I'm still in school. So that brings me to my point, on a Honda forum someone had talked about adding extra ground wires stating that it cleans the signals up for all the communication that...
  2. #4 plug water deflector

    I presently do not have that issue, but since I recently acquired a piece of material that when I saw it I said this has a purpose. The photos are of the first time just stick it up to get the idea. Much refining to do, but it might work. I think this is how Mike (FitzStick) started. 🤔
  3. It Finally Happened

    Our 2 yr old 21 CR V 37,351 miles has more miles than our 4 yr old 19 Ranger 37,075. Tis a sad day knowing it is not driven as much but makes me smile more when I do. I know you all thought this was going to be another bad tranny story or total job. Fortunately it is not. :whew:
  4. Tailgate Seat

    I haven't seen anyone post anything. (may have missed it). This is my version. Using my truck bed pillow (not to be confused with the other kind on the market) for the cushion & a pool noodle split lengthwise to slip over the bed cover for back rest. Enjoy morning coffee afternoon cocktail of...
  5. Terrible tire story

    Not our Ranger but our 21 CR V. I will try to keep it short as possible but it is interesting. At 32000 the factory Hankook's were wore out. Not wanting to spend $1000 for a set of Michelins tire dealer gave me a price on a set of Blackhawk Streets out the door price w / road hazard for $572 &...
  6. Too funny not to share

    Was getting gas in our CR V today. Got out to pump gas & saw a silver Ranger at the pump on the other end. Thought if the owner came out I would ask him he liked it. So some dude comes out with a piece of pizza & a big drink kind of in a hurry, it was cool & very windy so I thought I would pass...
  7. My Bronco

    Found a photo of my old Bronco when we did our photo wall.
  8. Arizona Plate

    Had this in front of me yesterday. New it wasn't Dave in a Ram. :like:
  9. Low Flying Bird

    Good news bad news. We had an encounter with a low flying turkey. His time speed & distance was off. Good news it wasn't the Ranger, bad news it was our year old CR-V. I will find out the damages tomorrow. Dam bird flew away in to a field after it picked itself up off the road. Edit : added...
  10. Friends F250

    A friend of mine came by the other day to help with a project. Needed to run out to the hardware store to get some more stuff so he offered to drive since he was in the driveway. He has a 19 F250 Super Duty Crew cab 4x4 with a 6 1/2 ft bed. Getting in was like climbing a ladder. Talk about high...
  11. Anyone else have one of these?

    Got this in the mail yesterday. These quick lube joints must be hurting for business. Stay in your car & see it all it says. In about 15 mins. Not for me. No way ,no how.:crying:
  12. Deep Sleep Mode

    Something I did not know. got a message today in my Ford Pass that my baby went into hibernation mode, I know winter is here & it is getting colder, but I have my battery maintainer on so my battery is up, but it has not been used for 14 days. so it does not seem to matter if the battery is up...
  13. No more QT Gas

    Let me start out by saying, I am not saying QT gas is bad. When we were living in Texas I was using QT gas regularly mostly out of convenience. Having moved back to the midwest QT is available but not as convenient. We have been back for 2 yrs now so that is how long I have been doing this...
  14. Happening at a dealer near me

    A local dealer near me has a 21 Tremor 4x4 Super Crew List $44085.00 sale price $41585.00 & a 21 Lariat 4x4 Super Crew list $44185.00 sale price $41685.00. Surprised to see the discounting.
  15. In bed storage solution

    With winter coming up I have some items that don't want to store in the cab or under the rear seat. Some items as tow chain or strap, bottle jack, tie down straps that I would rather have easily accessible when needed. List is probably endless, so I built some prototype boxes, had some scrap...
  16. Chip shortage explain this to me

    First off I am no computer guru. I limp by on what little I know. So if manufacturers are having trouble getting so called chips, how is it that these vehicles are being able to be moved around & shipped to other locations? Is it that some chips are available say as engine control but not to...
  17. Maverick MPG

    I now they are hyping the 40 mpg hybrid, but have they released what the 2.0 AWD mpg might be?
  18. Stake Pockets

    Does any miss having stake pockets in the side rails. I think it would nice to have so one could build some stake sides to aid in hauling say more boxes or taller objects more easily. I guess Ford thought people would overload the payload capacity, but you can do that without stake sides. ?
  19. The GOAT commercial

    Just saw the new Bronco commercial. Anybody else seen it yet?
  20. To P.A. Schilke

    Phil. I did not want to hijack any thread. I know you stated you raced Super V. Had a friend that ran Formula V. Just wonder if you every made it to the mid west. MAR Wentzville Mo. Found my old race jacket with this patch.:like:
