Since there are very few pics of the SCAB opened up with all four doors, here's one from our interior detail day a few weeks back.

There's as much legroom in the back as one would expect. At 6'1", 255 lbs, I sat back there for two 30-min drives and it was uncomfortable, yet doable. Backrests being completely vertical was miserable due to a sciatic nerve issue.

That being said, if you want a truck for hauling and truck stuff, the 6' bed is more important than rear seat opulence.

Got my truck back this morning after having Eibach lift installed- as I was pulling in to driveway, I saw my tires getting unloaded. I was 20 minutes late to work but I got everything done today ?

I'm curious what size drop hitch you'll be needing to tow small trailers now that it's lifted. The tailgate height is no joke on these Rangers!

I have a 3.25 drop hitch already, but I wouldn't be surprised if I needed a bigger one. Guess we'll find out when I rent a camper

Does what make washing a lot easier?

  1. Waxing?
  2. paint protection film?
  3. aftermarket catalyzed coatings?
  4. High School car-wash fundraisers?
Was planning to get Ceramic coating done. But then the COVID19 locked everyone up here in Madrid.

Ceramic coating makes it a lot easier to wash. Water beads up and it repels dust pretty well too. Plus you only need to wash it, never need to wax or anything extravagant. Honestly you could just take it through a touch less car wash and dry it off well and it looks like it’s been detailed.

Yep that's what I have seen advertised. But user comments are always preferred references to me. Thanks for your reply.
