What did you do to your Ranger today? (Part Deux!)

[sgtsandman]

Drove it to the dump. Went back to the piles of free mulch and found a woman and her daughter filling the trunk of their oldsmobile to the brim. She had backed the bumper right into the pile (these piles are 20-30 feet high). When she went to leave with an overflowing trunk the car wouldn't budge. The weight of all the mulch had jammed the back of the car into the pile, when she tried to move she caused a landslide and practically burried the back of the car. I laughed for a bit as dropped off all my trash but it was hotter than hell and no one else was around so I went over and helped pull her car off the pile with the ranger. I helped clean the car off a bit and suggested she unload at least half of the mulch in her trunk for safety. As I was leaving I saw her behind me at the gates, muffler dragging through the dirt, mulch spilling out everywhere...

These are the same people who buy a swing set for the kids and pull around back with a Geo Metro, wanting you to load it on the roof.

We’ll be wanting the best nog the thing can get.

Hard to find good nog in Texas.

Who wants nog in a 120 degree desert?!

 

[sheep herder]

Houston is more swamp than desert.

Today I continued my quest to get the bloody thing to behave right proper for once so I don't have to fiddle with it anymore. Fixed a rich mix CEL by correctly putting the cold start warm up loop in the air box back together correctly. Also cleaned out the PCV valve and fixed a small vacuum leak. No more CEL... for now.

I see your from Crawfordville, Whatup!

Damn fat fingers and small phone keyboards! LOL

Alcoholic nog is good any time of year.

Beaumont is like that as well from I understand.

Yes. Also, I have trouble finding good mpg in Texas too.

I fell down drunk and hit my head bad on the fender. Someone should probably do something about this...

Sad. She should buy a Ranger.

I’m at work for 2 more hours. I’ll stop by after work and check on the fender.

I may have laughed so hard I pee'd little... I'm not sure

I parked mine on the street today... while cleaning out the garage. I'm overrun with stuff. Lots and lots of stuff. Tomorrow morning is the covid 19 delayed spring clean up trash day. It was like a constant parade of scrappers and junkers driving around the hood. I would put some stuff to the road... go back to cleaning and take the next load to the road... half or better of what I took the previous trip was gone.

My garage has been absolutely blown out since I closed my antique shop... I'm gonna be really happy when it's all put back in good order and fully functional.

Next time, flag down one of the scrap guys and have him carry it from the garage to his truck. It makes your job easier.
