I've never had a vehicle that didn't get some sort of additional accessories or modifications. And I'm usually doing the same for my wife's, and now kid's, vehicles.

I've played this game long enough that I usually don't waste money on little stuff. While a different colored tow hook is appealing, I can't see myself spending that much for them. Painting them myself would be an option to consider and I might do that when I have the front end apart here soon. But I'd rather save that $100 to go towards something more useful to me.

Also, I find it helps to not ever think about cost of modifications on vehicles.

I agree Phil on the exception because of this forum! I really think the engineers that use to work for Ford on Ranger R&D side should be held accountable too!!! LOL!!! J/K :LOL:
Also I have a Moderator in mind⁉ :bandit: :cool:

This could be the wine talking but….

You could try economics with the wife.

average price per lap dance is $20. Average song is 3:34. Let’s round up to 4:00 minutes for stage change.

Just inform her it’s only 20 minutes worth of parts.

but don’t under any circumstances mention inflation.

Would a second lap dance cause deflation? ?:shock:

Just like I learned on guitar forums I needed 20 guitars and 5 amps have learned here that my every optioned lariat fx4 was deficent without 5k in mods?

But the truth be told it was all money well spent?
Only 5k? You have a long way to go then...:sunglasses:

OK, in all my adult years, after making some teenage and young adult bad decisions, I thought I was pretty logical with my spending habits. Well since joining this darn forum, I have bought all sorts of things for this new Ranger that I have not bought for other trucks!

Soooo, I think I have just lost it. I just ordered and spent almost $100.00 on a set of red replacement tow hooks when the black tow hooks that came with my Ranger are still just like new. So, I spent $100.00 because I like the color red rather than black?

Yup, I have lost it and the rest of you are to blame :LOL:

When do the Ranger AA meetings start???
Yup! You lost it!
