Why all the jokes about a tailgate damper?
After having owned pickups since the 70s I have on more than one occasion had the tailgate slip out of my hand and slam against the cables. The damper is a great idea that is long over due in my book.
Dave meet Dave. Just some info. about my brother Dave. He is the Guru of dampers, and has a damper discount coupon for all of the unwashed. Don't be one of those, and get that damper before it's to late.It's been a running joke here since the came out in late 2019. Some (like myself) love them and others think they're useless because the tailgate is so light. That's not the point it for convenience just like power windows. I love being able to grab the tailgate when my hands are full with one finger and let it drop without it crashing down. When you're ready for one come see me, I've got the good stuff. ?
)and approached him on our way out. He & his wife we’re on their way out also. Said he loves his Ranger, but started raving over the Maverick. Said the Maverick was beautiful. I asked him if he had seen one in person & he said the local fire station had one. He was from Tuscaloosa. Sorry, no pics. Didn’t want him to be too freaked out.What are these magical “power windows” of which you speak? I’m used to having crank windows but my last three trucks never had cranks - my Passat doesn’t have them either. I sure miss being able to roll down the window - I enjoy sharing my tunes with the neighbourhood but I can’t do that anymore. Also, it’s a real pain in the @ss having to get out of the truck at the Tim Hirton’s drive-thru and the cops freak out like crazy when I get out during a traffic stop - always yelling and screaming and wanting to show me their guns.

Update 3 months later: I have been seeing a lot more Rangers in my area, we even a Tremor floating around! From what I can tell, I have the only Scab.I see a couple everyday on the streets of Sedona, lots more on the weekend. I was asked twice yesterday about my 19 Scab (how I like it, does it have enough power and do I take off-roading). People really like the size and look of them.
I need to get some Ranger5G forum stickers and hand them out. Most drivers wave, some not so much.Did you see Bryan Laundrie?including areas like Tetons
I live south east of Boston Mass. I typically see two or three a day, sometimes more. Most of the time they are going the other way so I don't get to see much in the way of details.I've seen exactly 2 5G Rangers in my area compared to hundreds of F-150s... More F-150s than people here.
I'm seeing pretty regularly now too. Still more Tacos and GM twins though.I see a lot of Rangers in Western WA
