My truck has a brake light at the top middle of the outside of the cab.
From what I Saw the other day.
Whatever the shell's name is has a bump out in it to allow for that.

Been busy once again today so I've not had time to go look at that shell or whatever it is.

Hi guys.
Hope everyone is doing good. I've been so busy I haven't had time to do anything.

Which really sucks if you ask me. I truly don't like being so busy that I can't do even 1 thing that I truly enjoy.

And as of the day I found TheRangerStation I really enjoy talking here in these treads.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.

Thanks once again Curious.
However this I think you most have left out a step or something. I did as you said.
Went to the Menu and opened it.
I then clicked on forums

That's what I got.
It looks to me that in your post you've clicked on what's new not forums.
However either way you didn't say what to click on from there. When I scroll to the bottom of the page I don't see what you showed.

Okay I think I found it.
I had to go to TheRangerStation home page.
Then go to the menu from there.
Once that's open go to Ford Ranger Forums.
Then scroll down

Hi, folks.
Sorry I've not been so active on here lately, life kinda gets in the way.

So anyways if anybody is still paying attention to my thread here. I've had a few things happen over the last little while.

I lost my phone for one. And had to get another one.

I was not able do anything with my truck for a good while for another.

Then on Wednesday I went to my brother's house to do a few things with my truck and found out that someone had tried to steal it.
They tore up the ignition tumbler using the screwdriver trying to get it to turn over and so they could try to start the truck. Took me and my brother 3 hours to finish tearing it up and getting it all the way out so we could replace it.
It was crazy.
The few dollars I had saved up so I could buy some plexiglass to fill in the hole in the back window where the windows broke I had to spend on a new ignition tumbler.
Now my truck is pinched between another truck and an SUV with maybe 3 in of Play between all three vehicles so no one can steal it.

I sure hope that everyone elses week has been better than mine.

Can I ask for some advice folks.
1st. I'm not really a people person. A person, person maybe. But not really a people person for sure.

I don't have a real job. Therefore I don't really got any money at all.
I don't want a traditional job or what's called a traditional job.

I'm somewhat okay with learning new things. But I'm somewhat of a slow learner as well.

I believe I'm somewhat okay working on stuff. Don't get me wrong.
I'm sure you guys already know I'm not the smartest.

I would like to be a tow truck driving mechanic. Who can also weld.

I've been slowly very slowly trying to get help getting some education.
However with my criminal past I keep getting told that with my past they don't know if I qualify for the help I'm trying to get.

I'm trying to do the right things the right ways but it sure is discouraging when you keep getting door shut in your face basically.

Anyone got any advice?

This may sound like it really really sucks short term and the short term is waay too long, but get one of those crappy "minimum rage" full time jobs like McD's or WallyWorld or the such and using that money to survive off of attend a trade school that has a short certificate program, like welding since you know that interests you... Yes a McD's job will suck horrifically but it is short term... And being a back of the house cook or a late night stock boy isn't as people direct as cashier or deli counter kinda thing. Once you got anything on your history other than that big black mark (i.e last job was McD's/ got a welding certificate), I hopefully think that will change things a lot - least it did for a buddy of mine. (He worked at Taco Bell, then Little Ceasars as his craptastic jobs while doing the trade school.)
