What did you do WITH your Ranger today?

[M SPEC]

Great rig you have ! Im jelous of the camper ive been wanting one similar to it . Was the camper a hindrance when you off pavement or in tight spots ?

When I go (really) off road I usually leave it behind, however in reality it is so small it's not a issue. The only downside is very small trailers like this can be a bit of a handful backing up, so if your skills are not good practice at home before getting out. I also have a NuCamp TAB 320 that I pull if the wife and dogs (4) go along.

The Ranger took us over to my sister's place for a get together and we ended up with 3 Fords in a row.
My sisters Bronco, my Ranger and my daughters Fusion, previously mine.

Yeah, I noticed that. Damn cell phone camera. It's really only a couple inches wider.

Drove into big city of Manila to show our condo to some potential clients. Home now, thankful for that. I avoid Manila as much as possible.

It's a Braxton Creek Bushwacker. While they are on the low end of the small teardrops, cost and construction wise (unlike my NuCamp) it serves it's purpose quite well. I have made several modification improvements since I bought it in 2019. It is basically a hard sided tent but with heat, AC, and TV. I think the company is doing a better job with design and construction now, but it is still what it is (not an Airstream Basecamp or NuCamp). Thanks for the nice comment on the LC I have owned it since I was 47 (my wife bought it for me on that birthday) I am now 75. Frame off ground up rebuild. Fully lift off fiberglass front end, with Chevy 350.

I took the Ranger out to a picnic lunch to celebrate it’s 3 1/2 birthday.

Technically off roading I guess ?

That looks like Balboa Island in the background?

Yes sir! Drove out from Dallas to visit family.

 

[rang19ca]

What a small world. My grandparents lived on Balboa Island and we would visit every summer. We would cross on the ferry to go to the fun zone. They lived to the south of the ferry landing, to the right in your picture about 8 houses.

Did some un-maintained roads in the desert.
Washes haven't had time since last rain to relax and still have very steep sides.
Twice crossing them got a front tire airborne but traction control with it's attendant chattering pulled it through to flatter ground.
Impressed, but still haven't had reason to lock the rear.

The Ranger moved this morning, lol.

Stopped by Chick-fil-A for breakfast, the bank, the Walmart, then the Home Depot to buy a table saw for the workshop.

The Ranger had some kind of "low power mode" alert on the screen when I left Chick-fil-A and it got put on the battery minder when I got home.

I looked at the Nationwide website this evening to see how many miles I had driven it since December of last year and did a screenshot. Yeah, I know I need to get out more.

Drove the XLT to work this am at 4am........jumped into a cold Expedition and drove 150 miles west with the Doc........got back and drove the XLT to top it off with gas and drove home! Smiled both ways with the Ranger!

Scott I was starting to get worried, we haven't seen any posts lately. I figured it was time for a haircut or something? ?

See Sid @Msfitoy there's a few who have even lower miles than I do.? I'm just about to turn .......30K
