NICE !!!
I use mine every day. I go to work at 6am and I get home at 9pm so I can leave them on for the entire drive. It's like daylight.
Thank you, I did a trial run down the gravel road and came up the old Elwood blacktop road to get to FM 273 and I shut the RCs off at 273. They are on the truck mainly for not only the looks but off road use. There's a lot of Sheriff's deputies and Highway Patrol officers that roam the roads out here. Don't want to risk getting ticketed for having them on, while on the road.

I had some outta control jerkoff damn near smash into me 3 times in less than 30 seconds so I got 6 inches from his rear bumper and lit'm up. I followed him for about 2 miles like that. Funny thing was,,, he started driving normal once I lit him up. I think he got scared that he F'd up in front of a cop.


I'm not a big fan of tailgaters either...

I have one that I got from DeeZee. Really like it except for the little hump in the center that won't go away. You'll like it.

With every passing twilight, I'm more seriously considering rigging up a bullhorn and memorizing the actual law designation and fine re: proper lighting (you're supposed to have full light systems on from a half-hour before sunset to a half-hour after sunrise in ON). Then, when coming up behind the idiots who "run dark" (i.e. have no taillights on because they see their DRLs, which are mandated in ON, shining ahead of them and assume that means their rear is lit up, too), I can render a public service by announcing to them "You are currently in violation of Highway Traffic Act ### and at risk of a $$$$ fine."
I'm not, strictly speaking, impersonating an officer of the law, simply reminding them of the actual law. If they happen to assume that I'm a cop because of that, well, that's on them.

That's the damper (you refuse to put on) trying to escape. :bandit:

I bought the OEM Ford rubber bed mat that says RANGER on it. Only paid $150 or less for it. It is very heavy and works well. If not getting a bed liner its next best thing.
I had Line-X spray in bedliner on my 2005 Ranger, cost $500 , but Line -X is super $$$ today

The one that I ordered from Rough Country is only costing me $107 and some change. Beats paying 40k+ for a new truck.

Yeah that picture that you posted in the Beautiful Pictures added Arizona to the bucket list of places that I plan on taking a road trip to, not to distant in the future.

This is rare to happen on a Monday. I have received an email from Rough Country letting me know that the bed mat that I ordered Sunday morning has already been shipped. Best news I have heard all day. 🙂
