I’ll be a cool kid on Wednesday!

Glad you got the truck and you like it.

Here is my poopoo comment. I am not a fan of the stickers. But, luckily, you aint me and you like your truck, so I like it for you. Enjoy.

Couldn’t wait for next year for my bronco to be built, so started hunting. I pick one identical to this Wednesday. Already ordered my 2” spacer from FordRangerLift.com, ordering an MBRP exhaust, catch can and 1” eibach block for the rear, with more as I go. I’m bummed I couldn’t make it to bronco delivery day, but I’m more than happy with this backup plan.

Congrats!!! I couldnt wait for bronco either, pick up my Tremor this week!! Ford eco performance tune, ford performance exhaust and ordered 2" leveling kit too!! Enjoy!!!

Got it a day early. This little truck is beyond impressive. Can’t wait for the trail test this weekend!

Congratulations Mike, I know you'll enjoy the Ranger.

BTW, I have a plan "B" if the Bronco thing doesn't work out also.

I do too Jim. This waiting is beyond stressful. ?

This should be in the Jokes thread.

Pretty much what the final days felt like. On the plus side my reservation is going to net me some goodies courtesy of the dealership, so it’ll still benefit me in the end.

thats right...get the first dents and scratches in early....no sense in prolonging the agony ?

The first pinstripe hurts the most. My buddy can’t wait, seeing as I busted his balls insessantly when he first got his jlur and I was without wheels. He already told me his shits staying parked and hes riding with me. Paybacks. ??‍

Yes.. yes… more graphics. More stickers. Give me MORE!!! Super sweet graphics Mike. Thanks for the pic!

The truck also looks nice I guess ?

BOLD NEW GRAPHICS.

My little boy didn’t have school or therapy Friday, Abe he was terrorizing the household (Autism makes everything interesting ??‍), so since I got out early, I loaded him up after work and we went for an exploration/shake down run.
Started it simple, 2wd with the locker engaged and sport mode. Wow.blasted around the trails with zero issue. Even got a “Whoa” from my little dude, and considering he’s mostly non verbal, that’s no small accomplishment.
Finished up on the easy trails and went to pickup my buddy/spotter and headed towards “The Ledge”. Local climbing spot that really lets you know how capable your rig is. If I wouldn’t have run into approach angle issues, I’m fairly sure I could have climbed it with no problem. Definitely have to get used to not just nosing up to anything and everything and letting her rip, have to choose my angles carefully. Hoping my 2” level kit helps with that as well. Overall I’m plenty confident I chose the right ride.

side note: mud/rut mode in sport with locker engaged…. The throttle and transmission response is lightning quick and the mist aggressive thing I’ve driven in a long time. Absolutely made me a believer in this thing!

So, in the month and change, so far I’ve added a 2” FRL front level with a 1” Eibach rear block

Today, I added the A pillar ditch light mounts from FRL and the Mid Height bed rack from @589FAB. More to to come!

Dam you all have snow already
AWE MRPB ? what brands are these?

Dealer I bought from has 2 tremors with the stickers, said he can’t sell them. Not to mention the insane price ford is charging for them.

I like where your going with your truck. That’s what I have in mind for mine. How hard was the front and rear suspension installs?

FRL - Ford Ranger Lifts
MBRP is the name of the exhaust. The lifts weren’t terrible. Rear was maybe a half hour on a hoist, front was about 2.5-3 hours.

Got my Zeus lights mounted and wired on the A pillar mounts, got the catch can installed and finally got the MBRP exhaust installed. Good day today! (1st video is before exhaust, trying to upload the new exhaust video).
