Hi all, I'm a car guy out of Detroit and been an Engineer in the auto industry forever. Previously owned a 1989 Bronco II and a 2015 F-150. Currently have a 2019 Escape for the wife, 2018 Fusion hybrid commuter and now my 2019 Ranger XLT 4x4. Love it so far, really impressed. I'm thinking a leveling kit and maybe a diff cover to start. Look forward to talking tech. Don

Must have been my inner Jeep guy trying to get back out! I thought I squashed him after I got rid of the problematic 2015 Cherokee. What a hunk of trash!

Last time I was in kazoo... I see a guy snag a sturgeon at 6th street and proceeded to land it... haul it to his truck... and drive away with it. Even with everyone yelling at him saying it was illegal! I'm pretty sure he paid some hefty fines... and may have even went to jail. Not sure what the dude was on... but he certainty wasn't right.
