Built the first prototype dash mount for the Ranger yesterday. I think I may make a couple changes to the design before I release the final product. But I’m super pleased so far with it.

I wish I could find an international Ranger Tailgate for my truck. Can’t find anyone that Ships to the US.
If you want we can exchange ;). Mine is full steel, not like the recent international aluminium ones with a spring helper. It gets boring to lift it after a while. I wish I had an aluminium one, the feeling is way nicer.

Got around to wiring up my Tekonsha Prodigy P2 brake controller today. No biggie, but a pain in the arse to get up under the dash to strip the available wire's for a butt splice.
Ford, if you read this, make those 4 wire's about 6 inches longer !!!

These really should've been included from the factory when you get the tow package. I mean Ford raves about their highest tow rating out of any mid size truck yet fails to add a BC. :headbang:

Installed an Old Man Emu Standard lift with Motegi Trailites wrapped in 285/70/17 Cooper discoverer at3 xlt. Gotta take it out on some dirt roads and trails this weekend to see how it handles the bumps. So far so good!

Installed the Gatorback mudflaps today. I really like them. They’ll look better once I get my different wheels and tires put on there.

That's my roommates...let's just say we have a healthy competition going on :sunglasses:

It'll be nice once I get my 17" steelies and AT tires on so we can tandem beach cruise this fall/winter/spring.

The Taco is a nice truck for sure, but the low cab height, harsh brakes and the fact that his is a 6ft bed crew cab make it a dog for me to drive compared to the Ranger (suck it Toyota). I used to drive an '08 Silverado crew cab w/ an 8ft bed when I worked at a boat yard and I hate driving long trucks (which is ironic since the Thunderbird has a worse turning radius than most pickups)

I took her to hunting camp. It's been dry here in the U.P. so not much mud to run through on the way up today but the ride is much better with the Ford tuned Fox shocks. Hands down beats the FX4 stock shocks.
