Default is this a member's truck?

i was on my way home today and i knew traffic was bad on the expressway so i took a different way home. well turns out that there was construction so i had to take a different different way. i was on a road that i had never been on before when i passed this in a parking lot. i had to turn around and get a better look.

My Ranger is not old; no one would call her old. She has a bluff bow, lovely lines. She's a fine truck: weatherly, stiff and fast... very fast, if she's well handled. No, she's not old; she's in her prime.

Yup, looks like an EB grille and an LP tank. Pretty nice looking little truck, if you don't ever have to leave the city with it.
