Ahem, I had a similar incident in my 09 ranger. Except I did something really dumb. I was working night shift manufacturing. I took my breaks in my truck in the winter I would run the truck for warmth and have a cigarette (or 2). It was a 5spd and I would obviously idle in neutral but I rarely...
Happy to hear Dave's condition is improving. Well wishes to you sir. The forum's concern for your absence speaks volumes.
Very interesting to me that you've got your smell and taste back. I had a (unconfirmed) case of COVID in Mar 2020 which was not altogether remarkable except my smell and...
I hope memes are allowed here, it is Ranger relevant. This one made me lol. I would in fact take a Tacoma over a jeep 7 days a week too. It's too easy to make fun of the Jeep crowd lol. Hope you enjoy it ?.
I find this interesting Tim. I grew in the GTA and now live in Kingston, around here there are plenty of Rangers. I see at least two or three a day and I don't really do much driving at all (short commute). I've observed there are way more old gen Rangers here too. When I'm back in TO visiting...
I used a tiny amount of clear silicone to get the smaller bits reattached when I did mine and let it dry for a day gently taped with painters tape, sticky side to sticky side across the face. It holds well and you can carefully wipe the squeeze out with a very clean rag. Recommend.
I hauled 500kgs (1100lbs) of sand, and 34m (110') of 3/3 armored cable, plus a few very expensive pressure treated 2x4s. The cable alone probably weighs well over 100lbs. Even though the truck bed is practically half empty, I'm very near the 625kg (1382lb) payload capacity of my super crew...
35°C at the peak of the day yesterday. Been digging a 50' long trench in my backyard to bury my garage power that's currently overhead. Picked a really good week for it lol. At least we got morning shade. I've been sleeping better than I have all year! ?
Same, and the fact that I just didn't need a full-size. Also, I like the styling much better. And fuel economy! Many reasons I picked the ranger but fitting in my garage was definitely a determining factor. We have a tight two car garage with a lowish door, many new tract homes in my area have...
If you don't find anyone with pics, you can build and price a cyber orange truck with the black appearance package on the Ford website. It's not exactly the same color and won't show all the angles you might want to see but it's close... ?♂️
? Is that you, uncle bumbleforks? ?
And if you're gonna do the curbside, Homeless Despot is much better than Slowe's. Faster and more convenient pickup routine. Haven't tried Crappy Tire yet.
Yup, this. I didn't really want a damper but got one as a Christmas gift. (told my wife it was a feature the truck didn't have, and she assumed I wanted one, bless her) Installed it boxing day and instantly regretted it. Now that it's warm out it works fine, but it literally makes your tailgate...
With the upfront acknowledgement that almost nothing matters less than this: which generation do our beloved trucks belong to? Wikipedia has the generations broken down differently, and states that the current gen is actually the 4th.
