If there was any doubt that I had joined the wrong ranger forum... These reply's have removed it Hahaha. Got a feeling my "forever 16" sense of humor will more or less fit in around here lol.
For the curious, I do still have a traditional drivers seat.. It's just that my licence plate reads: BLMPKN. It has for just shy of 9 years now. That "forever 16" sense of humor is what inspired me to see if the state would pass my vanity plate idea.
Fun fact for the day: a couple years ago Maine started considering vanity plates as "freedom of speech", so now you can have literally anything as a vanity plate as long as its not racist pretty much. Hilarious. Although a lot of these new plates have kinda taken the edge off mine -_- lol.
The original one is pretty rusty. The bed support closest to the cab is totally wiped out, there's a couple holes in the bed floor, and the rest of the bed supports are close to death as well. I figure it won't take me any longer to make a flatbed as it would to fix my bed properly, so that's the route I'm gonna take. A flat bed will be more practical for hauling bikes/sleds/wheelers Plus, it'll allow much easier cleaning of the rear frame.. Which up here in the salt belt is where these trucks disintegrate first.
Oh. Dude. We are strange AF here. And mostly 14-16 at heart.
And probably should have a breathalyzer attached to our forum.
Either way. Thank your stick on heat shield for rotting out your bed. Got part of my 2011's as well, but damage was already done when I bought it.
Someone out there does make whole floors if your fenders are good.
Chasis saver and fluid film go a looooooong way on a Ranger.
Or ospho and fluid film if you're lazy.
