Interesting. Bummer on the supplier fukk up. The vehicle manufacturer gets the black eye in the end despite the supplier paying for their mistakes.

A common misconception or even just something not thought about with parts failures is the the auto manufacturers themselves don't make every part for that vehicle themselves.

Here's a 2.4 timing chain guide for example.

Morning / Evening All. A slacker Monday at the lake. Last day here so need to pack up and be out by 1pm.

Sky is again a little grey from the smoke, other than that a beautiful morning.

Was talking to one of my brothers a few days ago while he was driving home from work. I asked if he still had the Porsche Boxster I remember him buying a few years before. He didn't. He had traded it in on a 911. I remarked that for a sports car it was very quiet. But he wasn't driving the 911.....he was driving a Mercedes AMG. I can't imagine having the sort of money that guy has. Hell I've been bargain shopping for parts to fix up my 38 year old truck.

41k with a soft top? No way in hell!

I think when I looked hard too option is 600$ more and I could save all that by not getting the front lockers and Sasquatch package. Don’t need 35” tires a lower package with 33” tires and no front lockers would be fine. Want 3:71 rear end if I get one don’t need 4:56 or whatever the crawl gears are. And while it may be nice for awhile I think I’d go automatic like this one not the 7 speed manual which is actually 6 speeds with s super low crawl gear.

Saw this on neighbourhood Facebook page, do want to be happy for him but he sounds so sad…


Please watch out of my white dodge ram 1500 big horn.

Was stolen from Poplar Dr last night.

There is white paint match linex around the wheel wells, has a tonneau cover and the plates HVH 498.

I love this truck and I want it back.

Thanks,

You ever figure out what those impractical black plastic brackets on top of those front fenders are for let me know.

They’re to put a cable on between roof and front fender as a brush deflector, or they’ll support up ro 150 lbs as tie downs for a canoe ect.

According to the Ford manual they are to tether the owners boyfriend's gimp suit to the hood.

The one I did a build up to check price came at 44,000 for way I wanted one. Unfortunately nothing is cheap anymore unless you want a used up one and I’m MN you might be staring at the ground through the floor boards by then.

Manual only comes with the rangers turbo 2.3 4 cyl too in case it matters. 2.7 v6 is only auto

Fanks for the update Richard but fully aware of all that. No need to keep my eye on that one but my 2001 R/T I do.

Who's Richard? Where am it? Don't ever call here again!
