That was a good article. One of the members here, @RoadBoss has a review of his swag here: . The article also mentions the Nemo Wagontop 4p tent, which I've been using for a couple years and highly recommend as a ground tent. It's a great option if you want room to stand and use cots for added...
Bought a USFS Christmas tree permit last week. I took Hank out today and used the tag to snag this bad boy. Lots of snow and hidden pot holes, but Hank eats them for breakfast. Good day.
I haven't updated my speedometer, but the tire itself is 32". I believe that is the max input diameter for tires, at least it is on the FP Tune and others.
My set up is not glamorous, but is highly functional. I don't have a picture of it in use at night, but it does absolutely illuminate the entire bed area. It's an inexpensive magnetic base light from Walmart (white light on the left, stuck to the bed). It was $11. I can also hang it from my...
255/80 gang! I removed the front air dam and it definitely looks/functions better. Great choice in tire; my Falkens are a welcomed upgrade over the stock Hankooks. Enjoy!
The climate control module needs big dials, not small hard-to-find push buttons with limited back lighting. Its the one thing I complain about aloud every time I go to adjust the temperature, especially when it's dark out. All controls should be tactile and easy to find with limited effort.

I purchased my matching spare OEM wheel from that site. It arrived in excellent condition. I ordered the TPMS from here: https://www.levittownfordparts.com/part-ymm/2020-ford-ranger-tpms-sensor.html . I wanted a genuine OEM sensor so I wouldn't have to worry about calibrating it. No issues once...
Yeah, it does feel like a second-thought solution. I wish there was something tailored specifically for this tailgate, but I needed something; so I settled. I would happily exchange this setup for something more factory looking if/when it becomes available. I'll keep an eye out on that thread...
Installed the ESI tailgate seal kit. Install was straight forward, though it does look a bit funky because of all the small individual pieces everywhere needed to fill in the gaps. I definitely needed some way of closing off the bed better, and I think this will do the trick.
I would also add that if you are hauling around the RTT when this occurs, it adds more weight that the truck has to overcome, and acts as drag on the acceleration.

The install is a bit aggravating. There's little room to maneuver in the driver side wheel well. All catch can options will be difficult, but for me it seems to be worth it. I...
The top half (dark liquid) is fuel/oil mix. The clearer bottom is water condensation. Motor runs great. I have not had any oil creep issues, but I'll occasionally get a strong wif of fuel.
Hahaha. Nah, but I had a 240sx with an sr20det back in the day that was stolen and found later looking just like this. It happened weeks before I left for boot camp. Tragic.
