Does anyone want to venture to St.Paul for the last day of production on friday December 16th? I have not been to the plant but drove by once over 10 years ago. The last plant tour was on December 1st so you won't get any plant tours. I do know there is tight security there. If we can't park in the visitors parking lot I'm sure we could gather at a nearby restaurant. I plan on stopping there sometime in the daytime but don't plan on being there all day. There have been a lot of newspaper articles on it in the last week so I'm sure a lot of local media will be there. My 09 Ranger is a white longbed with white grill and BFG All Terrain T/As on the rear.

Sounds like a good idea, but its a bit of a drive for me. Luckily, I have relatives up that way to crash for the night. Thou, its also short notice for a trip now.

god i wish i wasn't in school and had the money i still had this summer... if that were the case i would be there waiting tomoro!
I made it there in the middle of the afternoon of the last day of production friday December 16th 2011. I got about 20 pictures. Still maybe 1000 white Rangers there plus about 30 tan colored ones and I saw ONE dark blue one. Is there a limit as to how many pictures I can post? Here I go:
Tried and failed. I have some good photos from the last day. Can the owner of the site or someone else help me upload them?

A sad day in history. I hope whoever gets to drive that truck realizes its importance, and lets it serve a long useful happy life.

it surprized me to see it was a supercab, most all fleet vehicles ive seen, and every commercial ranger has been a std cab, usually a 2wd shortbed.
