That's awesome to see the banner made it home, sorry for being late, but since I no longer have an RBV, I haven't been to the site much lately :(.

Maybe someday I'll have another RBV...I seriously cannot understand what it is about the 1st gen Rangers and Bronco 2's that always draw me to them. Maybe because a 1st gen ranger was my very first vehicle in high school, IDK, but I really love driving them.

Anyhow if another banner does start circulating someone's gotta let me know so I can scrounge up another RBV to do some meet ups...working the job I have now I am a bit more able to travel farther :).

Ya, all the participants of both banners got a new badge under their name.

The story for the last banner is done, and will be available in January. I was as slow putting it together, as the banner was moving across the U.S.

Wow, just realized the added banner under my name. Thanks Jim. That's awesome.

If anyone ever starts another banner let me know, I got a far more reliable B2 now :).

Well, I posted about two hundred times in those threads but didn't actually get to sign or even see the banner...

I guess the old saying "It's the thought that counts" only applies to giving gifts and saying prayers...:) Maybe it was that post about flying it from the CN Tower naked that kept them away from Ontario...:icon_rofl:

It's nice to see them though...it was a valiant effort on all who participated....

Most likely the naked part Mark. You were as DG and I used to say, "On it like Blue Bonnet" with enthusiasm.
