  1. TV is off for the opening of any games.

    That's ok for you guys, personally I'm fed up with all the neo-Nazis in America. But we beat them in WWII, we'll beat them again.
  2. RPMs While Driving

    Just drive faster, 75 is about 2000 rpm.
  3. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    I took mine golfing again today, he's getting better, shot an 80.
  4. Painting Wheels

    LOL, so I'm sitting at the dealership getting an oil change. They just came in and told a guy at minimum they needed to pull and resurface his rotors. He's whining it should be a warranty issue they pay for. Turns out he painted the wheels while they were on the truck and also the rotors, and...
  5. Consumer Reports Likes the Ranger

    Let's be honest, the AC temp control and folding mirror buttons may be the worst design ever. However all in all it's still the best mid size truck available.
  6. Did I make a mistake?

    I bought my specific truck because it specifically had the 18" chrome wheels, I think they look really good.
  7. 2019 XLT sport 4x4 Iconic Silver for $36,622?

    Most of the dealers around Houston are at $5-6k as a dealer discount on 2019's. But they are getting thin on the ground so that could change quickly.
  8. Ranger with mods at dealership

    An FX4 with the 301 package is probably going for $34-35k around here, with $5k of addons it's probably about right.
  9. XLT Sport - What should be my highest price paid

    We just bought a new ford for my wife, basically you give up $500 of the ford rebates to get the 0/84 finance deal. Here in Houston you would get a dealer discount of $4k or so on top of the rebates. I would expect to pay around $5-6k off list and get the 0/84 finance.
  10. How does this estimated pricing look?

    That's about $5k overpriced around here. Dealer discounts on 2019's are running $4-5k, plus incentives plus 0% financing. You do lose $500 in rebates for the 0% financing though.
  11. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    I took mine golfing today, shot a 78, he's pretty good.
  12. Looking to buy/need advice

    A $28k truck around here would have a $3-4k dealer discount in addition to any factory rebates. When I bought my XLT the dealer discount ranged from $2800-4000 for every truck. My wife just bought an Escape 2 weeks ago with a $3k dealer discount on top of rebates.

  14. Colorado bent frame

    HenryMac, that is probably true, just overloaded.
  15. Colorado bent frame

    Also remember that fatigue is really poorly understood, that's why in aerospace and offshore oil and gas you typically have to show a fatigue life analysis of 10-20 times the actual expected life. For example an offshore platform with a design life of 20 years would have to show a fatigue life...
  16. How much have you driven your Ranger the past few weeks?

    I still drive 4 days a week to play golf. Does that count?
  17. New Ford

    We've only had it a week but with the 1.5 it seems to have plenty of power, the sight lines out of it are very good and handling seems fine for a mini SUV. My wife likes the seats in the Escape but I personally think the Ranger seats are more comfortable.
  18. Life After Covid-19

    Corporations can make more money, and managers can give themselves bigger bonuses if they make more profit. That seems to be the number one goal of Americans these days. If you want to maximize profits at any cost this is what you get. And if society only want to pay the cheapest possible price...
  19. COVID-19 Thread

    I saw the Orange guy now says if we keep deaths down to 100,000-200,000 he has done a great job. I know it's tough for working folks, but if you don't keep your health there really is nothing else. Stay safe. My wife has severe rheumatoid arthritis, the drugs she takes completely destroy her...
  20. Hidden winch finally installed

    That looks good, I've been thinking about one for my 2wd.
