[Ranger Kip]

Mechanical Design Engineer, right now he is working for Richardson Brands Candy Company, and he is in charge of the management of moving 3 companies to the factory right now.

He has work for NASA (on the shuttles), Disney (he developed just about all the mechanics of Whiney the Poo's Adventure ride in Japan, and Disney World), he invented the first working Waterproof/Durable Portable Mini-HD, he also invented that stuff they use for bathmats:

, and he also worked for Johnson & Johnson, and helped develop the worlds first diaper making machine that could make 800 diapers a minute (at the time only 200 a minute could be done), it was a mile long machine.

He also did some government work too, thats some secure stuff though, kinda like "shutup or be sued to hell so fast you wished you were killed".

We are far from rich dude =P We own a used 05' F150 4x4, 84' Ranger XLT 4x4, 2001 Suzuki Swift (aka the "Go-Kart"), a 2003 Ford Taurus, and a 97' Infinti Q45.

We are gettin dad's Porshe (Bradley Kitcar he built as a teen with his dad), from grandpa here in the next few years too.

We got the F150 (our regular "trade in once warranty is up" DD).
The Infiniti is not road legal, (needs an O2 sensor replaced), and needs other work that keep it safe though (struts need replaced and some electrical work is needed).
The Swift is dad's DD, its a extremely small 4-banger with a 5-speed standard, and 4 seats, my head hits the cieling in back.
The Ranger sits and I work on it from time to time.
And the Taurus (AKA the Tortoise), is in my sister's hands and I feel sorry for it, she is not a safe driver at all.

I am serious, we are far from rich, we just own a lot of vehicles.

We got the F150 because we traded in Mom's old Windstar shortly after moving to our farm in PA, and we got the Taurus from my grandpa/grandma Hershey, the Swift was a cheap buy from a used lot for my dad as a DD because he works far, the infiniti was a funny story (if you wanna hear it), and the Ranger was stalled when we purchased it for 800 (got ripped off), and then was repaired to RUN (thats it, nothing special) along with a new bottom pan ($1500 total put into it), and it was supposed to be our farm truck, but it only saw action once or twice before the brake line gave way.
