Nothing too much to do on my ranger other than doing truck things with it however the 24 model year ranger has given me ideas for a possible front clip and dash swap from the looks of the 24s and the fact that they haven't changed the shell of the truck.

me and the 5g went to Magnetic Hill in Oklahoma today. It was a lil disappointing. Apparently I am too damn fat to defy gravity/physics. no going backwards up hill in neutral for me.
guess stopping at the beaver hut for snacks pushed me over the hills magic power limit... https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/oklahoma/gravity-hill-ok/

Pretty sure the rear end is too high to roll backwards uphill. Turn around and I bet it works. :crazy:

It wasn't today, but I recently got home from a 6,500km roadtrip around the eastern states of Australia. The Raptor ran like an absolute dream.
Stops included:
  • Broken Hill
  • Bourke
  • Charleville
  • Longreach
  • Gladstone
  • Dalby
  • Tamworth
  • Parkes
  • Temora
  • Wagga Wagga
Here's the Raptor at the Blackwater International Coal Museum

? I'll have to see what I can do about a special delivery to Estonia. ?
I have no idea why 303 products are not imported here as they are so popular at States.
I don’t know about logistics between US-Estonia. I only know getting ALF from Nevada to here cost almost 90 € to my friend (ALF included) ? as it was a present.

I'll have to ask Conrad next time I talk to him over there. My guess is the expense of shipping hazardous/flammable materials is costly overseas.

I'm glad I still have my Alf from many years ago. He rides along with me but always trying to escape. :shock:

I still have my Alf cookie jam my mom made for me when she did ceramics years ago. ?

The escaping Alf moved from MP1 to MP2? Haven’t noticed him on truck pictures. (Or I’m not paying attention ?)

The ceramic one is something very valuable:) Looks very well kept too!

Yes, I moved him to MP2. My windows are tinted dark (20%) so you can't see him unless I'm close up like in the pic above.

The ceramic cookie jar has never been used but it's been in every house I've owned since she made it for me back in the late 80's.

Joining the "do with" and "Alf" themes...
Everywhere I go with Pepper, these guys go along. Froggy and Turtle have watched over my speedometer on all my trucks. They came from my daughter's Ford Probe when I sold it. She's still mad at me for selling it but she was in college and never drove it, and I was tired of paying for the parking garage in Philadelphia.
My mini-Pepper was custom painted and sits on the dash with Sylvester and Roy Kent...like me, "he's here, he's there, he's every f@#king where"! I used to have an Odie decal on my '89 STX rear glass, but couldn't peel it off, and couldn't find another!
Then there's Alf. Never missed an episode...He's a 1987 Alien Products piece, inside full of candy cats. Only 4 are left, don't know what happened to the others?????

And here’s what I did today with my Ranger and Alf on its backseat - a simple parking school. At least I admit I need it. ?

Looks like this exercise is kind of ok for now ? Walls are still holding.
