Yeah I got an ex off of the personals there, once.... :eek:

Unfortunately it took more than a "free for the asking" ad to get rid of her :icon_rofl::icon_rofl::icon_rofl::icon_rofl::icon_rofl::icon_rofl:

You should have offered "free delivery" in the ad.

Should have put her on Freecycle, but doubt there would have been many takers.....

I don’t have time to read all of that right now, I have to get ready for work... what’s its tow capacity?
3500 IIRC.

And in case you are wondering the spare tire is supposedly somewhere on the back of the vehicle, it doesn't specifically say where though?!

Thanks.

No, I wasn’t wondering about the spare tire, just the jack... is it still in the truck or are you using it to hold up your bed?

Ranger has two, Edge has one, F-150 has one and the bed has two.

Had a slow morning so we drove around Omaha trying to find a Cactus Gray Bronco Sport or Ranger on a lot to actually see the color.

All the dealers showed they had one (and only) one in stock.

Found a bunch of Sports, maybe 10 total. Outer Banks seems to be common fodder for dealers to stock but no Cactus Gray in real life. Area 51 is a neat color I might add.



White is actually kind of neat too.



Saw one sitting on the lot with a cartop box on it, not sure I had ever seen that on a brand new vehicle sitting on a dealer lot before. Met another one with a cartop box just driving around so I guess it must be a thing... :dntknw:

Might have seen a Ranger but it was like a mile away on "truck mountain" which was fenced off and locked so that was no dice.

Swung by dealer #5 in a small town on the way home and finally found one... locked in the showroom.



Looks like something @snoranger would drive with all the extra awnings and stuff. Kind of funny as a lowly Big Bend (second from the bottom) it was the crown jewel, it was in the showroom and they had a black base sitting outside.



So yeah, we saw one... still have no idea what it looks like outside of a dark showroom with tinted windows. :annoyed:

I was also surprised to see they had a Ranger on the lot with the accessory wheels. I really wish they would have been in the accessory catalog for the Bronco as well. I think the silver lips would be MUCH better at not showing damage than black painted anything...

Does the kayak come with it?

Also, who's job is it at Ford to determine lug nut quantity per vehicle? They need to be fired...

5 OR 6, PICK ONE!
