What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

[subquark]

I loaded EVERYTHING into the back of my Ranger and then met David ( @subquark ) for coffee.

The lamp shade came in really handy as the evening wore on. =D

And you never go wrong with the kitchen sink!

The Lamp Shade.....after the 6 pack, which one of you wore it ???

I'm guessing David wore it. A 6 pack is like a glass of water to Duke. Remember he's Canadian, they've been drinking since their First Communion.

On even numbers of 6 packs, I wore it, and on odds Duke did!

We also sang Rule, Britannia! (after the cucumber sandwiches, which are odd with beer).

Yeah, but I'm French-Canadian, I have an extra layer of BS!

Guess what Soupie did today!?! *gee Dave, what could that be? hmm ...*

Would have been easier to have a bonfire.

Today was Ranger day. Shopped for her, visited dealer for a talk, cleaned all bugs, washer fluid stains and hand prints on black body colour. And bed and inside. Added tire shine.
Just to shine tomorrow at upcoming event. And the day after tomorrow I repeat the cleaning starting with bugs.

its very difficult to keep black trucks looking clean. every small spec of dust shows up so easily.

Excellent! What do you use for tire shine? =)

Took it to the dealer for an oil change and tire rotation. Went over the body with some ceramic detailer.

Interesting trivia on that note. My grown daughter looked up this plant, it's English Yew and they were meant to be maintained as decorative shrubs. We have them around the house and, while those are leggy, these in the backyard have never been trimmed and are 65 years old and 30 feet tall!

But ... here's the trivia she told me: they're toxic!

Called the Poisoner's Hedgerow in the UK, only 2 ounces is needed to kill a person (I suppose as a tea?). Every part of the plant, except the flesh of their berries is poisonous (even the skin of the berry, so how does a bird eat that to spread their seeds around?).

AND ... the smoke from burning them is toxic! Yikes.

And the friggin' mosquitoes love them, bah on this plant. =(

Portsmouth does allow burning, but I'd have to be sure the wind was blowing toward a certain neighbor ... =p

Besides, I have a strange desire to make dump runs! =D

A laxative? Hmm, maybe I won't be so full of p00p in the future! =D

Do you do that clay bar stuff? That stuff intimidates me a little, I'm hoping to just wash it and use graphene like we used wax in the old days.

But ceramic looks amazing and a part of me wants to try it ...

Nope just a Mother's Detailing spray. Pretty simple and makes it a lot easier to get the bugs off. No affiliation with O'Reilly's or mother's.

Instead of clay, I use their synthetic clay block. Easy and works great.

At the moment Motip spray. Not many options available in my country.

Thanks! I see that Motip also make v-belt dressing spray, might be a good one for me where winter temps and the "salt" mix they put down wreaks havoc with belts.

Hmm, they also have an anti-splatter spray for welding (adds to my list).

And I like that Motip Tyre Shine is spelled properly (I'm a Canadian Anglophile).

Thanks and good luck at your event! =)
