What's better than a Ranger ?

[Cape Cruiser]

TWO of them !!! I have been trying to get the wife to let go of her 17 Taco Sport double cab and with the frame inspection thing every year I figured it would hurt the resale or trade value in the future. Couple days on the computer had 2 local dealers wanting my business. Ended up the dealer I bought my 19 Ranger from had a similar vehicle coming in the next day but it was Blue, beautiful but she wanted Red. So she thought about it. The last 8 months have been rough on everyone but she had 4 strokes during this covid crap ! Sucked driving her to the hospital and having to leave her there ! Then the last 2 months for me have been interesting also. Im blind in my right eye and the last 2 months my left eye has been trying hard to do the same. All is well now and im driving again, just lost little reading vision. So back to the truck she just said lets get it. I guess the dealer figured it wasn't right color but he knew I was looking elsewhere so he knocked $6 grand off the Ranger with rebates and an amazing $33,795 for my almost 4 year old 17 Taco Sport double cab 4x4 with 35,000 miles that we paid $39,000 for ! Awesome truck ! Many differences from 19-20. Sync is very different from my 19 and in her truck its eating up her iphone battery quickly. Ordered an ARE cap this morning, also DAMPER, bed rug, weather tech mats and window vent visors, AVS bug shield, mud flaps, sill plates, and tailgate seal. 2020 Lariat crew cab ,lightning blue, medium stone ,501A,chrome package, FX4, locker, running boards , Ford spray in. pictures aren'

t that good. Stay safe everyone ! Bret

Nice looking family Bret! Sorry to hear about your wife but glad she's doing well now. Glad to see you got a damper in those mods. One less I have to work on now. lol ?

So, what's better than a Ranger.... A Ranger and a Bronco. ?

Congrats Bret. So happy for you and your wife. Good news on your wife's health improving.
Now turn one of those blind eyes on that damper fellow

Bret, sounds like you are ready for 2020 to end as I am. The trucks look great and the chrome package looks nice with the blue.

Man, I hate that you all have had some health issues. I hope 2021 brings much better luck. Those two Rangers are awesome. And since I am partial to blue you know which one I like better. ?

Beautiful pair of Rangers you have there Bret! Praying this new year will bring good health to you both.

Glad things have stabilized for you and the wife Bret. Maybe you both can have a duelling mod thread for the new year

Hey, Bret, sorry to hear about your health problems, but it looks like you and the wife are going to drive into 2021 in style! Good luck, man! (Blue was not my first choice, either, but it grows on you!)
