Prior to my 2021, I had a 2009 Ranger, white. This is what I had done via a "wrap". Local company that does commerical and rescue vehicles did it. Ran $600 bucks. Hard to see in photo, but hood has wrap inserts.
Only thing I feared was someone/something "nicking" the area as it was vinyl, and would have been hard to hide any problem....used to park it waaaaaaaaay out in parking lots.
Just my opinion, but I don't think the "lines" of the 5G lend themselves to something similar.....sides of our Rangers are too "busy".

Nice find!

That’s some creative stuff by the owner of the new style ranger.

I know we’re all free to express our opinion, but for some reason, I just don’t like to tell someone if I don’t like it.

I mean if they are on here, They are asking for opinions, so maybe I’m just trying to be too amicable, as I would never say that it’s not my thing or say anything negative.

Instead, I would just say that it was very creative, especially due to the fact you found the twin on the 80s ranger!

Not sure what you guys think about it. I guess if it’s something terrible, technically doing people a favor :)

Nothing wrong with doing folks a favour, that’s for sure. Your post reminds me of the scene in Caddyshack in the pro shop where Rodney Dangerfield is saying how bad a hat looks and sees Ted Knight wearing one - “oh, but it looks good on you”.

I like just about everything anyone does to their truck. ? It’s not like everyone has all the same likes or dislikes as anyone else and it’s not as if any one member has the last word on what people should or shouldn’t do.

Maybe that’s why I like this forum so much.

There are some wild things members do to their rigs that I would never do to mine but I respect and appreciate their enthusiasm. Of course, no one exudes the “to each, their own” attitude quite like @Tracy Bowman who loves everyone’s truck. ??

Outer Banks rims I bought cheap that a guy took off his Bronco. Installed blue Sumo Springs to take out some bounce while towing.

those really do look good on the 5g trucks. i bet if they were offered more folks would picked those than the "sport" rims. I like the sport rims over some of the others but dont love them..

Tracy is appreciated for being mild mannered, amicable and complimentary but when it comes to parking issues don't mess with Texas Tracy... :LOL:

Great outlook. I also like most anyone's truck. It may not be for me, but it often sparks ideas of things I might like to do.

Now, for Duke, I know that he loves the chain on my grill, but as that is now legally trademarked, you have to pay a licensing fee to do the same to yours. Most of the profits go to my charity for those that don't have a dump within 30 minutes of their homes ...

What I don't understand is why the post office isn't delivering the hundreds of requests for this?
