Alright, fine. We're on our way. I guess you want us to get all of that BBQ and nachos off your deck, too? Picky, picky, picky...

Camping and off-roading trip this weekend with another Ranger group. Truck handled the #3800 camping trailer fine and the Curt Echo brake controller worked. Post-trip cleaning and checkup revealed the support hose for the fan wiring finally crapped out so I fixed it with a zip tie. This is a known problem.

Glad it towed well! We towed our 4100 lb travel trailer this summer for the first time over a pass and other hills and it was a beast! I am so impressed with the Ranger and it's capabilities. I should check my wires just to be safe.

If they get loose the fan will hit them and short them out.

Sounds like a zip tie as a preventative measure is a good idea.

As usual, nothing exciting. I went to pick up a couple things a few towns over.

The truck is officially 5 years old as of this month and it clicked over 7,000 miles on the way back home.

I know I said I need to get out more, but it never happened. lol.

Scott, you need to get more haircuts. lol

I guess it's safe to say you'll never have transmission problems. 😅

I added a zip tie to my harness yesterday. The clips are fine right now but a loose zip tie just in case was no big deal. Thanks for the heads up.

Just back from completing the Lake Superior Circle Tour. We did it counter clockwise.

All those miles and adventures and your six year old truck still looks great. Tell me you saw the giant Canada Goose in Wawa.

I’m diggin’ that Marin too, Vince! :D

Thanks, Duke. I’m still loving this truck. I’m at +76k and it still drives like new.

And you definitely can’t miss the massive Goose. It’s huge!

The Marin saw some dirt over by Gunflint Trail, MN. Glad I took it! It’s been a great bike, just like the truck.
