My favorite memory of 2024 with my Ranger was packing up and moving from AZ to AR. While most of our belongings were on the moving truck I did have the Ranger full with personal things. It was a nice two day trip stopping in NM overnight. I wish we had more time to stop and see a few areas but that'll give us an excuse to make another road trip soon.

Oh, one hint. Never use a Tacoma while on the Ranger 5G site. :shock::oops::wink:

What made my vehicle special this year?

True North was called upon more than usual this past year. From January to April, while I rebuilt two second storey balconies at my place, my Ranger was a regular site at Home Depot and often loaded to the hilt.

In early Spring, I listed my place for sale and the Ranger was called to duty to move a number of large items and boxes to my FIL’s garage as we de-cluttered.

Then, it was loaded with everything we would need as we settled at the cottage while our house in the city was open to real estate agents and their clients. A few additional trips to and from the city were needed just to get all my tools out of the garage and up to the cottage.

Not long after, my FIL listed his house for sale and moved into a retirement condo. That meant someone had to take care of dealing with all the belongings that didn’t make it into his new place as well as getting his house ready for the new owners. That meant twice-weekly, three-hour trips from the cottage to his place, over the next two months.

After de-modifying the Ranger, the gas mileage was greatly improved. Here’s the Ranger in its “city clothes”…

Of course, we then found a house we just had to buy and that meant more trips from the cottage to the new place - thankfully, only a 90-minute drive. But the place in the city still hadn’t sold and that meant the occasional three-hour trip there to check on, or retrieve things.

We closed on the new place but the trips down from the cottage continued as I checked on progress with the trades that were putting in new flooring, lighting, painting, and extending a wall. I also had a number of smaller improvements to deal with until we could move in. That meant loading up my tools and heading down once again…

We eventually moved in but there were still trips needed to the city and to visit my FIL, back to the cottage to shut it down for winter as well as to visit my mom. Then there are all the Home Depot, Canadian Tire, and Home Hardware trips as I finish up the small chores here at our new house.

Thankfully, I was able to get the Ranger back into its winter wardrobe before the snow started to fly.

That happened just in time to make more trips to drop off gifts to mom up at the lake and to my FIL down in the GTA - during winter storms, of course. I put about three years worth of kilometres on it this year and all of it wouldn't have been possible without this great truck.

With all this time spent driving through all types of conditions, it’s essential to have a truck with the comfort, toughness, utility and reliability to get the job done. My Ranger has all that and looks great doing it.

So, that’s what made my Ranger special this year.

This pic is all wrong and very offensive and needs to be burnt with fire and then salt the earth where you burnt it so nothing will ever grow there ... imho...
